Since this site supported the Seattle Seahawks whole-heartedly earlier this year when they made it all the way to the Super Bowl, I'm assuming there will be a lot of discussion on them again this year. So let this serve as the official Seattle Seahawks thread.

It looks like most of you found the soccer game between Toronto and Hamilton yesterday to be rather boring, with all the scores coming off kicks. Then I guess you found the Seahawks season opener today against the Detroit Lions to be rather boring too. It was a real big defensive game with neither team being able to get into the end zone. In the end, the Seahawks squeaked out a winner on a Josh Brown field goal on the last play of the game.

I didnt see the game, dont know if I could have, but I was sure surprised by the score. Did seattle underacheive that bad, or is detroit improved? Would love to see another lions team worth cheering for :cr:

Just a word of warning Robbie...

I think there are MANY on this site who follow the Seahawks..

I'm not sure if a single thread is going to be sufficient. Nor is it mandatory.

Feel free to start various threads in this section on the 'Hawks. No need to leave them all in just one thread ... (same can be said about other sports too not just the 'Hawks)
Now that I don't live in Quesnel do I need to change my handle??

Perhaps....we'll see.

Since the Super Bowl, there has been minimal discussion on the Seahawks. In that NFL Pre-Season thread that I created, there was minimal discussion too. And nobody created an official game day thread today for the Seahawks season opener.

Feel free to do so yourself next time.

I was busy this morning so didn't watch much of the game and then once the CFL game started that was for sure the end of the Hawks game for me.

I'll get into the NFL after the Grey Cup. And then after the SuperBowl I will get into the NHL (maybe).

I didn't enjoy the Hawks much yesterday. It looked as though their O-line just wasn't getting it done for the running game. It's one of those funny football things. When the run works it's the running back, when it doesn't it's the O-line.

Once the CFL season is over, I may catch a Hawks game down in Seattle. I'm really emberrassed to admit as a born/raised Vancouverite, I've never been to check out the Emerald City.

In an earlier thread, there was discussion about how all Seahawks home games already been sold out. So good luck getting a ticket.

well there is an option to get tickets even though they are sold out, you can just use the Season Ticket Holders Ticket Exchange at Seahawks.com...thats how i get my seattle sonics tickets for way cheaper, but i checked the seahawks ones, expensive...

Single game tix sold out in 20 minutes. Try Ebay.

2 years ago they couldn't sell out home playoff vs rams. Kinda Canuck-like with the bandwagoneers

:shock: Glad I missed out! I'm not too worried about scoring tickets. Where there's a will, there's a way (translation-I'm paying through the nose for a place to put my butt however I've been waiting since 1976.....).

As for the Hawks trade for a reciever, they were a little thin at times last year but they seemed to have a tough time running the ball against the Lions. We'll see...only game one.
