How painful was it to watch Louie Aguiar complete a fake punt bomb to Aaron Lockett vs. the Chiefs? And to give up a TD pass to Dale Carter, a CB, the year prior?

 

I completely forgot about this until you brought it up.  Thanks. 

 

But really.. it was not as painful as Vinny Testaverde's white helmet being confused with a brown football, or Anthony Wright throwing bombs like Madden rookie mode AND getting a 4th timeout to beat us.. or having every player hit a career milestone against the Seahawks (Terrell Davis, Emmitt Smith to name a few) 

 

Those Seahawk-Chief games were usually entertaining though.. aside from the almost always automatic loss at Arrowhead.  Do you remember the SNF game that was delayed due to some crazy monsoon?

Tell me something i don't know about legendary Seahawks QB Dan McGwire

 

Aside from being the brother of Mark McGwire, and a giant POS that we drafted ahead of Brett Favre, he also knits! 

 

does it really rain there all the fugging time?

 

The winter can be pretty dreary.  Spring is hit and miss.  Summer and Fall are beyond amazing.  This year it was warm and sunny for 95% of the summer. 

 

Do you guys still have any rivalries from when you played in the AFC?

 

Not really.. playing the AFC West every 4 years in meaningful games kind of killed that.  I mean we play 3/4 of the division every year in preseason, but it's not the same.  I guess the closest to a "rivalry" with an AFC team is with Denver just because of the Super Bowl and seeing them again this year.. but most of our rivals are NFC West teams now (namely San Fran and St. Louis) 

 

How'd Dallas beat you in the Clink earlier this year?

 

A combination of things.  First and foremost.. they just dominated on offense and defense.  Special teams is what kept us in the game as we blocked a punt and returned it for a score.. then they muffed a punt deep inside their own territory, which we scored on a few plays later. 

 

This was when Percy Harvin was still on the team, and we were hell bent on using him.. so we were forcing the issue with a lot of jet sweeps and bubble screens.. none of which worked.  Then the Cowboys basically played Cover 1 Man all game and dared the Seahawks to beat them.. which for the most part they were unable to do.  Defensively, Maxwell and Wagner left early with injuries.. though Wagner would return to try and play (he'd later miss the next 5 games) .. couple this with Kam Chancellor being broken, no Jeremy Lane or Tharold Simon.. and it was just the perfect storm of crap.

 

Honestly, the Cowboys are not a great matchup for Seattle because they have the OL to protect Romo and run the ball.  They played a great game that weekend.
