Lack of smack?

other than a few chuckleheads, the entire seahawks fanbase has been quiet.  Look over at seahawks.net and see how infrequently a new post is added.  It's a ghost town over there compared to the crowd they had over there for the playoffs last year.

Maybe the pats intercepted half of their fanbase at the end of last year's super bowl, too.

The foundation of that Hawks fan base was built on quick sand and they have a QB that brags about speaking directly to God and drinking water that heals concussions.  That same QB is also trying to make a pop star regain her virginity.  They have a color scheme that includes fluorescent green.  Who in the f*ck wants to walk around with a fluorescent green jersey on all the time?  The whole 12th man thing was fake and was stolen from Texas A&M.

I think it's because most of the actual fans are focusing on their hate of Darrell Bevell, and the "2012's" are pumped up to see what baseball team they get to buy new gear for. 

It's a distracting time. 

Darrell Bevell vs Mike Shula is like two potatoes fighting.

it's a maturity thing. no actual grown ups "smack talk" on the internet.

I beg to differ.  I talk all kinds of sh*t online then i jump in the minivan and take my son to a cub scout meeting.  I am the epitome of internet tough guy.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
