Dear Seahawks Fans: Your team is in trouble. You signed Jeff George. That Jeff George. Yeah, him. That guy. There he goes again. I like to call him "cancer man". Is the Walrus experiment over with? Continued proof that coaches shouldn't be GMs?
As if we needed more evidence of the true lack of "guru-ness" possessed by Mr. Holmgren. Where's your Favre now? Ehhh?

As a Redskins fan in Seattle, I was thinking of going to this Sunday's game. But the Seahawks without Dilfer vs. the Redskins without Stephen Davis is not worth $50+. I was going to predict a score of somthing like 6-3, however the offenses may give the defenses plenty of opportunities to score TDs.

As a Redskins fan I speak from experience: This signing will not work out for the Seahawks.

As a Redskins fan I speak from experience: This signing will not work out for the Seahawks. Yeah, and let me guess ... Marty Shottenheimer is a lousy coach and the Chargers will go nowhere with him. Afterall, that is the reason the Skins sucked last year. ;) Whatever :) Jeff George continues to fail in the NFL because he isn't mobile enough and he makes bad decisions including forcing balls into coverage. But don't use the "he didn't play well for the Redskins so he will definitely suck as a backup in Seattle" theory. The Redskins are poison because The Danny is a putz who knows NOTHING about football. How long before so-called Skins fans start calling for their savior Steve Spurrier to be fired? ;)

Ugh. The season is in the tank. George is awful, awful, awful.. $5 million dollar arm with a $.05 cent head. They need to blow the team up and start over.

I give don't a dam about Jeff George, he's a head-case, end of story. However, owillis, I like the thread. Nice PTI take off.

Ha! God, the seahawks suck. What the hell was Holmgren thinking?! That man now completely blows in not one but two aspects of the game... Well, at least we have the Sonics to- oh, wait, no. Ah, but there's still the Seattle Mariners- ah, crap. Jeebus- this is going to be one lousy winter for the Seattle sports scene. :( This is, no doubt owillis, only the first part of a move that will bring Drew Bledsoe to Washington, eh? It seems someone had a little something to prove this year. And speaking of something to prove- what the hell happened to the Patriots, btw? 3-0 out of the gates and looking lethal, silencing most critics... then 4 straight mediocre losses. As ESPN put it, what happened to the chip that was on their shoulder for those first 3 games? They're in a tailspin here!!!
