THE SEASON BEGINS
What do you expect from the Seahawks this year? How long has it been since we've had a GREAT season? How are we going to get there? What will it take?
If you were the coach in the locker room this Sunday vs. the Jags, what would you say to them to set the tone for the season? What have you always wanted to say? NOW IS YOUR CHANCE.
Behold, the 1st Annual Ass-Kicking, Here We Go Into Battle, Win One For the Gipper, Knute Rockne Eat Your Heart Out Preseason Speech Contest. Think about what you want to say to the team, and put it below in the comments. This will hopefully be an all time classic thread. Comments and usual banter will be deleted from the thread. Use the flooble to comment if you wish. Voting will take place Wednesday, September 7, in a special poll thread. The winner will get a 'Wheelbarrow Award' to carry around his cajones.
This contest is OPEN TO ALL SEAHAWKS FANS. No registration required, just click on 'comment now' and start typing in the comment field. There is no limit to length. Please use symbols to replace swear words. And,
GO SEAHAWKS!!!
