Looking Forward to my Trip to NY Now

by: Michael Steffes

I hate to even give these losers more publicity, but the blogoshpere has already exploded on this. If there wasn't a reason for outsiders to dislike Seahawk fans, there is now.

The owner of a Seahawks based message board that you may have seen, called Seahawks Huddle, posted one of the most offensive and appalling attempts at trash talk I have ever seen. It was enough that the NY Daily News even took notice. As has Deadspin. And rightfully so, there is a lot of Hawkfan bashing going on.

Every fanbase has its idiots. Put them behind a computer and things get interesting. This is just pathetic, and it makes me sad. Judging by the reaction of Giants fans, I expect to hear about this next week while attending the game. In both of the last Giants games at Qwest, I sat next to Giants fans, and I found them to be to both humble and knowledgeable. Hopefully, after the anger subsides, they will understand that this is one isolated asshat and not a representation of Seahawks fans in general. ~END~
