Man, this Sunday's game is either your dream come true or your worst nightmare. The fuck do you root for?
Optimism from hawks fans does not win championships tho
Facts are lost to a pitiful rams team, and only played a complete half of a game vs gb

Of course optimism amongst fans doesn't win championships, but neither does screaming the sky is falling. Again its only week two. No team is the same in team in week two as they are in week seventeen. Long way to go. My whole thing here is both games were winnable and the problems they've had in both losses aren't anything huge that can't be fixed. They've also showed improvement from week one to week two, despite still losing, so there has been some progress. Beating the Packers in GB was always going to be a difficult challenge, no matter what week it was.
Yeah but almost all of the points were given up due to big penalties (Rogers had THREE free plays, each led to a TD). Those are types of mistakes that can be fixed. Other than those big plays, the defense did a pretty good job. Individually, Wagner and Wright were balling out of their minds. Sherman gave up two plays total, each was on a free play (those were the ONLY times Rogers went at Sherman (when he knew it was safe by being a free play)). Bennett actually had a solid game outside if his costly penalties. It wasn't as bad as the score indicates and they clean up a couple of things they will be just fine.

The Bears game will show where this team is at. Home opener. Bears with a back up QB. Seahawks should dominate in every aspect - offense, defense and special teams (bears have been dreadful on specific teams and defense). If they barely squeek by Chicago, I'll be worried. This is a game they should win by double digits without question. Their defense can give up some plays to Forte here and there, but they should dominate in everything else. If they give up 20+ points, yeah maybe time to panic. But if they win 30-10 or something like that like they should, their ok and going in the right direction.
Do as you please, there's obviously no rules as to what teams you can or cannot follow. We got people in here who live in Canada and somehow chose some random team to follow, or an Australian who picked his team solely based on the type of hip hop music he listens too. For me, I follow two teams in all of the NFL. 0 Teams in NBA, 0 Teams in baseball, 0 Teams in hockey, 0 Teams in college. I watch Bears, Seahawks and Boxing, that's all of my sports world right there. I've spent 30 years watching the Bears and about 26 years watching the Seahawks.
And that makes you special? Liking a team that you have zero ties to?
When I moved here from Chicago as a kid you couldn't watch anything else on TV, it was Seahawks football or nothing, you couldn't choose. There was no internet, no streaming, no NFL package. Maybe if I was lucky I got a bears game once or twice a year. So I watched the Seahawks. Naturally over the course of time, I became a fan. Of course Chicago always stayed #1, but there's no reason not to follow the Seahawks especially considering I've lived here far longer than I lived in Chicago. Pretty simple to understand really.

Coming to seattle today. Apparently he hasn't committed to rejoining us just yet, its supposed to be a meeting to negotiate. "Kam, please don't ever leave again. We realize it was us not you. What ever it takes, we'll change" lol.
