Seattle Seahawkus: Week 2 -- The Pittsburgh Stealers
by DJ C-Raig on Sep 18, 2011 3:16 AM EDT
on Field Gulls
If the title wasn't enough...I'm still bitter.
I did not like the Steelers before XL. I did not like Gannon, or Cowher, or Bettis, or Franco, or Rooney I through Rooney MXII. I did not like how the NFL always seemed to swing from their junk and stroke their gooch. I did not like how running the football became "that's just Steeler's football!" and how "Stealer's football" became football 'the way it's meant to be played!"
Then XL happened (See: then we discovered we drowned our children, then it was revealed she actually wasn't dead, then we realized we were really on Mars, then we ascertained we were ourselves dead, or then we found out it was our planet the whole time). Basically...monumental.
My dislike was compounded, and evolved into hate. The Weapon X of emotions. Not even sports hate (a benign, easily forgotten emotion), I mean full on Rwanda-esque hatred. I hate Hines Ward and his shitty smile, I hate Ben's stupid moony face and his inability to not look like he has Trisomy 21, I hate Mike Epps, I hate Wiz Khalifa (their colors are Black and Gold fuck-face), I hate ketchup, and I hate (I mean HATE) Pennsylvania.
There is, quite literally, liquid rage and animosity dripping from the tips of my fingers at this moment. The schadenfreude beating through my arteries is palpable, and the music of it is dark and sinister.
If the NFL was a lunch room table the Steelers would be the cool blonde kids wearing Letterman jackets and black headbands, while the Seahawks would be the new kids from some state no one has heard of; quietly bad ass, good at math, and about to get The Girl.
In conclusion, let's beat these cunty bullies back into the 70's, and let 'em know that Seattle ain't nothin' to fuck with.

The Seattle Seahawkus: Week 1 - The Forty Niners

San Francisco might have the single most boring mascot in the NFL.
Let me think...
Yeah, that's correct. The Browns are more exciting.
You were named after a bunch of old prospectors San Fran; you were named after a flock of tramps that died carrying rucksacks full of dreams and poverty (sounds about right, actually). Worse, at the heart of it, you were just named after a date. Pity these guys.
But, as my man Billy says, "what's in a name"? There are plenty of reasons to hate the 49ers besides their wack-ass moniker. Anybody here have a friend who is a San Fran fan? I can almost guarantee yes, because when I was a kid you were only a fan of one of two teams: The Cowboys, or The Niners. I like the Seahawks, but then I've always been a rebellious shit. As you know, if one ever gets in an argument with a Niner fan, they inevitably fall back on the oh-so-irrefutable "We have 5 championships! How many do you have?", or "Joe Montana can never be ousted as the greatest QB of all time!", or "Yeah? Well fuck you."
On top of this, every year, we have to watch professional sports media Tarzan from the testicles of the Niners, and assure us that "...this is the year they take the West!"
Balderdash and hogwash. Not last year, not the year before that, not next year, and sure as shit not this one. Strap yourselves in Niners, because our Hawkus have killed more cats than curiosity, and we are about to cripple Gore (more than he already is).

The Seattle Seahawku: PS4 - The Raiders
by DJ C-Raig on Sep 1, 2011 1:53 PM EDT
on Field Gulls
Frak. Bo. Jackson.
You all know what I'm talking about. It's Lara Croft week, and Bo Jackson can go to Hell. With him, he can bring Howie Long, Mike Haynes, Jack Tatum (this one's for Easely), The Dark Lord, and Rich Gannon. They can all go right into a black hole. Not THE Black Hole; not the one full of Carnies. Not the one that oh-so-conveniently gives trial lawyers, and crosswalk guards an excuse to wear leather and studs. Not the one that sucks in joy and sensibility, rather than mass (and maybe time). I mean a straight up, real-life, bonafide, stretch-your-ass-ad-infinitum singularity.
I. Hate. The. Raiders.
Who doesn't hate the Raiders? It's almost cliche to hate the Raiders. But I hate them for a different reason than many. I hate the Raiders, because as much as they tout their "rebel" image, and pretend to love being the "NFL's bad boys", they bitch and moan every time the NFL/media/fans treat them as such. You can't have it both ways Al. Either your rolling around the streets of Canton on your '57 hardtail, asking "What do ya got?", or you're falling in and doing community service for United Way.
Al. Davis. Is. A. Goblin. From. The. Mines. Of. Moria.
We all know this to be factually undeniable. Sauron sent Al Davis to Oakland, and gave him 50 years to raise an army, and find the One-Ring. Al decided the best way to do that would be by owning a professional football team, attempting to win the Super Bowl every year, thereby amassing as much rings as possible. Hopefully one of them is THE ring.
Well I hate to break it to you Davis, but you're coming to Seattle. The One Ring does reside here, but it is pierced through Paul Allen's scrotum, and there is only one way you're getting a look at that. Between you and your goal stands a regiment of Seahawks; creatures forged from fire, and iron, and Hendrix, and coffee, and the salty tang of the raging seas. Behind these warriors rests Stormbreaker Stadium (or...The Clink), an impregnable bastion, filled to the brim with your true opponents.
Us.

Seattle Hawku -- PS3: The Broncos
by DJ C-Raig on Aug 25, 2011 9:21 PM EDT
on Field Gulls
Remember when being a Bronco meant something? Every American waited in palpable anticipation, eager to see what you would do. You would put some of the most exciting players in the field on your back, and carry them to The Promise Land. It was like you could run for hours, and no one could catch you*: cattle rustlers, Raiders, and LAPD all trembled in your wake.
Remember when the Broncos possessed a nearly elite Offense, a Mike Nolan crafted Defense, and a few of the most sought after players in the League?
I sure as shit don't.

The Seattle Hawkus -- PS 2: The Minnesota Vikings
by DJ C-Raig on Aug 19, 2011 2:10 PM EDT
on Field Gulls
Many of you were here last year; many of you remember how dark those days could get. The Seahawks nuked their own planet, and we were left sitting around barrels, burning Pat Kerney jerseys, and waiting for the New California Republic to come and kill us for our Caps.
As the weeks progressed, and food ran out, we became desperate for hope: for a source of kindling to foster a flame in our collective hearts.
With this in mind, our Verbomancers decided to create The Hawku.
The Hawku was designed to promote fanhood on the darkest of days. Did the Giants from Big Apple just crush us in our own fortress? Yes, but Jeremy Shockey sucks. Did shit just go Cormac McCarthy on us? Did we venture out onto The Road again, and become fodder for cannibals from the Eastern Commonwealth tribes? Sure, but none of our players molest children*.
The Hawku Post is a place for our clan to come together, to leave behind our differences, and bash our enemies using the most Metal of all forms of poetry:
The Haiku...

"Red’s antics were up today," Carroll said. "He was having fun playing football. I think when he tackled Dominique Byrd about 25 yards downfield on a full speed, live tackle, we realized that Red was officially back. That came just two plays after he thumped Josh Portis in the back on a pass rush.
"Red’s alive and well. And when you’re cooling Red down, that’s when you like him the most."
Pete interviews Rice, and some other guy.
Rice on Golden: "They’re two different type of athletes," said Rice, who also was with the Vikings the past four seasons. "Percy is a bigger guy. Strong. Real fast. Golden is a quick guy. He likes to move around in there and he gets open.
"So it’s going to be some similar things that we’re going to see that we had with Percy as well."Rice on Sherman: "He’s a big corner. Long arms. And he’s got one of the better quick jams that I’ve seen I’ve been in this league," Rice said. "So if he gets an opportunity to get out there and get his hands on somebody it’s going to be exciting for our team."
Rice on playing Minny: "I haven’t even thought about it. It’s football. No matter who’s on the other side I’m a Seahawk now. I’m going to war with those guys and the 12th Man this week. So that’s all that matters."

After watching that USC video, I started reading up on Devon Kennard, and yes. Just yes.
6-3, 257lb, 4.7 40. Top rated DE in the country, eighth overall. Started out at DE, then moved to SAM where he sacked pretty boys. Moved to MLB; QB hurries, tackles, and sacks galore...but not so good at pass coverage. He'll be starting at MLB this season, with the D being built around him.
A player to watch. Can any USC fans out there tell us more?
First, USC DE #42 looks like a legit Leo. Wouldn't mind that guy rushing off the edge. Second...well, just watch the video.
Post game interviews.
Charlie is a little weird. Tommy Guns looks like LL Cool J.

Last season, after every Seahawks game, I would compile a list of all pertinent (see: about the game) tweets from players, coaches, owners, and..y'know...other people. Throughout the week I would add any new tweets that arose. It is a fun part of the tabloidal side of the NFL, and provides a window into the sometimes bewildering (Marshawn) thoughts of our players. Let's get it.

Offensive linemen must run laps around the field immediately after committing false-start penalties. I wasn't sure right tackle James Carpenter was going to make it through practice. He's a huge man built to maul other huge men at the line of scrimmage. He's not a candidate for the cross-country team. Of all the offensive linemen guilty of false starts Saturday, left tackle Russell Okung appeared most comfortable taking his laps. Carpenter is having a strong camp, by the way.

I saw this on Jaron Johnson's Twitter, and because I'm doing everything possible to procrasturbate, I checked it out. Not bad.
I particularly like the Niehaus shirt, and the Black and Green 12th man one (Which I might actually buy). I like the color scheme, and I like the throwback logo.
