Well...

I went to the Seahawks playoff game against the Washington Redskins and it was great. I got up around 6am and I didn't get home until 10pm. We had a native guy in our group with a Sean Taylor jersey on and he got into a scuffle with a Seahawks fan. Fists flew, beers splashed, and the guy through a wooden coat hanger in retaliation?!? What?!? I know, it sounds weird and I assure you that it was. The Seahawk fan punched Mike (Redskins fan), one of our guys tossed beer on the Seahawk fan, and as the Seahawk fan was walking away tossed a wooden coat hanger at Mikey. His forehead was split open and he required stitches. $200 down the drain and a trip to the ER...a bad day for Mikey. Then Scott managed to do something really stupid. We were trying to get to someone's car and we needed to go over the railroad tracks to do this. There was a train that was fairly stationary on the tracks, but was going forwards and back every few minutes. Scott hopped over the train while it was moving and he did this right in front of a Seattle police officer. Typical Scott. The Seahawks offense seemed a bit off, but we did manage to get some decent yards on the ground. There is a glimmer of hope for one more home game. The Seahawks have to beat Green Bay in Green Bay and hope that the NY Giants can upset the Dallas Cowboys. The Cowboys haven't won a playoff game in more than 10 years and Green Bay has only lost twice at home during the playoffs. It's a long shot, but I've got to keep a positive state of mind. At this point, I have been to 6 Seahawks home games this year and they have won each and every one of them. It feels good to be a good luck charm once in awhile.
