2005 was the 42-0 game and there were numerous picks. One of them followed a 9 minute opening drive that broke their back. i was in DC for work, in a bar where a bunch of Redskins fans were and I was wearing a BRAND NEW 51 jersey that just came available. You should have heard them arguing about the hawks but cheering them on for beating Philly.
One guy said "The AFC is better than the NFC right now but that doesn't matter because Seattle is going to destroy their opponent in the Super Bowl, we aren't beating that team".
Guy number two "The Seahawks are frauds, they always have a bunch of lucky breaks to win football games, they haven't shown the ability to get out there and dominate" Guy number 3 sitting at the bar "dude, they are showing YOU right NOW on national TV, they are for real"
After the group caught my jersey, they were fun and friendly but i had the feeling that i needed to exit before their vision was blurred.
the 2007 game i was in Costco. watching the finish. it was cold, cold cold and it was much closer. funny that we took it to the eagles so brutally though.
