The Cards didn't get one of the few 'A' grades for their off-season moves for nothing. I see the race for the NFC West being between us and the Cards this season. <BR/><BR/><A></A><A></A>Posted by<A><B> </B></A>vinnyhawkalugiAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10616755.post-1119330575256392782005-06-20T22:09:00.000-07:002005-06-20T22:09:00.000-07:00Oh Boy!

Not only that, the guy quotes Okeefer about some fool statement he made trying to justify his leaving the contending Seahawks for the browner pastures of the NFL's absolute worst run franchise that will never, ever find its way to the Show. And this guy comes in here spewing all this while he didn't even have the cajones to post a moniker.<BR/><BR/>What a Yutz.<BR/><BR/>BTW Paul, nicely done on the letter.

A guy who is so small at DE he still wears a LB number? <BR/>You see, there are reasons he is no longer with this team that he didn't mention, like, no one wanted his lame ass back, like he's been replaced by your ex DE Bryce Fisher, and his malcontent attitude. CYA Okeafor, believe me, you won't be missed at all!<BR/><BR/>If I were you Lamb lover, I would be far more worried that the Cards beat your crap team out for second place this year, than whether or not you actually have a prayer of winning the division.

I know if I were Rams fan, faced with the prospects of a team whose big offseason moves were adding a couple of over the hill always injured LBers, one of whom, even the Vikings, with their crappy defense didn't want. Not to mention a nut job for a head coach, who has no clue when it comes ot game management. In a division that they couldn't win last year, up against the Hawks who won the division and an improved Cardinals team I would be scared too. Looks like a 7-9 season for the Little Lambies.monkeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17808465141991582788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10616755.post-1119322185566691242005-06-20T19:49:00.000-07:002005-06-20T19:49:00.000-07:00Have You Dorks seen This?But as the Seahawks slog ...Have You Dorks seen This?<BR/><BR/>But as the Seahawks slog through another minicamp this week in their decades-long quest for respectability, the defensive end's rationale for accepting a free-agent offer from the NFL's most moribund franchise is worth repeating, especially since the Seahawks offered nearly the same five-year, $25 million deal.<BR/><BR/>"There is a different attitude (in Arizona)," he said at a news conference in Phoenix. "(In Seattle) on a day-to-day basis I felt alone, not surrounded by enough people that thought like me, felt like me, played like me on a day-to-day basis and love the game like me. So I was in search of that from my teammates, and I felt that here. Teammates and coaches, we are all in it together. That had the most to do with the decision.<BR/><BR/>"It was very easy because of that."<BR/><BR/>This sums the Pigeons franchise. Why don't you sell your franchise? Rams Rule.

But this actually upset me.  <BR/><BR/><A></A><A></A>Posted by<A><B> </B></A>PauliePAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10616755.post-1119299785312754582005-06-20T13:36:00.000-07:002005-06-20T13:36:00.000-07:00Paulie. if you're refereing to Lindy's Football Pe...Paulie. if you're refereing to Lindy's Football Peview guide, they have the correct one in last season's issue.

That being said, I c...I love reading preview mags. That being said, I came across something that really upset me in one of my favorites (Lindy's) and I'd like to share an e-mail I sent the editor with you all.<BR/><BR/>The subject line read "respect":<BR/><BR/>The latest buzzword in sports is “respect”. Fans will say that their team doesn’t get enough “respect” in the media, players will say that they don’t get “respect” from other players. It’s become fashionable to be the underdog, even when reality puts you as the favorite. Disrespect is even being pushed upon teams like the Patriots and players like LaDainian Tomlinson by the national media. <BR/><BR/>I am usually one of the largest foes of such nonsense. I believe that in general, good teams and good players are respected. <BR/><BR/>I do however have one very large gripe. <BR/><BR/>I have been a Seattle Seahawks fan for my entire life. They have never been a “great” team, and they deserve every bit of criticism they receive. There is one slight however, that they do not deserve. It is a slight that has repeatedly occurred in the television media, and recently in your magazine, a publication I “respect” very much. And it’s one that needs correction. <BR/><BR/>In 2002, the Seahawks put a lot of money into a new stadium, and new uniforms. They also put a lot of thought into a new logo. It is not acceptable that a publication such as yours, one that is read across the country, should continue to use the old logo, 3 full seasons after the team has changed. Especially when other new logos, such as the Cardinals, have been updated in the mean time. <BR/><BR/>Please work toward correcting this mistake. I know that I am not the only fan that loves your magazine, but was rather irked by this obvious oversight. Thank you.<BR/> <BR/> <BR/>PaulieP<BR/>Tempe Arizona<BR/><BR/><BR/> <BR/><BR/><A></A><A></A>Posted by<A><B> </B></A>PauliePAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10616755.post-1119295771159649092005-06-20T12:29:00.000-07:002005-06-20T12:29:00.000-07:00Ouch Check, thanks for the visual..that one will s...Ouch Check, thanks for the visual..that one will stay with me for days!<BR/><BR/>And we all know what I do, I hang out venting on Anti-Hawkers and pouring Kool-aid, and in the down time here I play some football on my X-Box after making the daily player movements around the league. All teams have current rosters and players that have made large improvements have been edited according to their improvemnets. <BR/><BR/><A></A><A></A>Posted by<A><B> </B></A>vinnyhawkalugiAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10616755.post-1119283817732560302005-06-20T09:10:00.000-07:002005-06-20T09:10:00.000-07:00That and fooling around with my first topic and ge...That and fooling around with my first topic and getting my art files linked to the boards without distortion.

LOL!<BR/>I get the feeling that as people were reading this thread, there was a lot of head bobbing up and down in affirmation and understanding of the predicament you so accurately described. Probably a lot of "man that's for sure" statement muttered under the breath of those reading this, but unfortunately, no help from this crowd forthcoming. I am not surprised, as I certainly can offer no solutions.monkeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17808465141991582788noreply@blogger.com
