We've been reading and rereading Hawks/Packers stuff all week. Here the few things we think are important about Saturday's game: more ›

Is there drama in Saturday's NFC divisional playoff game between the Hawks and Packers? Well, the playoffs are always dramatic. But this game packs (ha!) even more of a theatrical punch. The storylines: more ›

Tonight, the nation's hardcore gamblers' eyes will be on Seattle as our fair burgh hosts Monday Night Football. more ›

This fall we are combining our love of the football and our dream of learning to cook. On Sunday morning, following a trip to a local farmer's market/major supermarket chain, we will be preparing a meal from the city of the Seahawks opponent. Then at halftime we will throw our badly burned hands in the air and make hot dogs. Note: This weekend we are injured reserve, so trading in the visor and clipboard for some playing time is Seattlest Courtney. more ›

A more dismal Northwest football weekend we can hardly remember. more ›

Lately the Seahawks' offense has been about as offensive as a Bastyr College commencement address. more ›

While you're enjoying an unseasonably sunny summer afternoon, we will be at Safeco Field, showing our undying support for the 2007 Seattle Mariners, authors of one of the greatest collapses in baseball history. more ›

This is Tom Landry, the greatest coach the Dallas Cowboys ever had.

When Dennis Green's Cardinals beat San Francisco on Sunday it gave the Seahawks the NFC West title, and with it a back door entrance into the playoffs. more ›

The Hawks lost their third consecutive game today, but won their third consecutive NFC West title when Arizona beat San Francisco. more ›

--The Hawks' Walter Jones, Lofa Tatupu, Julian Peterson and Mack Strong are going Pro Bowl-ing. more ›

Even before we got drunk during last night's game, we felt like we were in some substance-induced hysteria. Just a weird, weird game. more ›

The Seahawks play in Kansas City on Sunday--their first trip there since 2001. But back when the Hawks were in the AFC West, they played there every year. more ›

The Hawks start up on Sunday, and here's video of the last (and maybe best) great Hawks moment--handheld video of the clock running out, and the wild aftermath, of last year's NFC Championship Game victory.

Seems like somebody always gets dinged for the year in preseason football, and this year it's Hawks safety (and free agent pickup from Chicago) Mike Green. From Mike Sando's Seahawks Insider: more ›

The dailies bemoaned the lack of pass protection in Saturday's exhibition loss to San Diego, but we saw something fantastic--what free agent speed-rushing linebacker Julian Peterson will do for the Hawks' defense this year. more ›

The Hawks' own Matt Hasselbeck and his (not un-foxy) mom will join with the man who bested him in Super Bowl XL, Ben Roethlisberger, and longtime soup pitchman Donovan McNabb, for a new season of Chunky Soup commercials. Yes, someone's already posited that there's a Chunky Soup curse. more ›

Honeymoon's over, Seahawks front office. You greedy fools. more ›

Feeling lucky? The Super Bowl's the time to enlarge your wallet by beating the bookmakers. You can bet on practically anything about the game. more ›

It's a telling fact--during 2005, the Seahawks only once faced the 3-4 defense (the one the Steelers use)--against the Cowboys, who stifled the Hawks. We've read it in the Boston Globe, on NFL.com, in the Detroit Free Press. But it's wrong. more ›

At first, the Hawks were loveable losers. The Nordstrom family owned the team, and stocked it with young players like floppy-haired quarterback Jim Zorn and undersized receiver Steve Largent. The Hawks had an unexpectedly successful season in 1983, advancing to the AFC Championship. But they soon settled into a pattern of mediocrity. The new owner, a California land developer, tried to move them to Los Angeles. They weren’t loveable anymore. People started calling them the “Shithawks.” In 1997, billionaire Paul Allen bought the team. He hired Super Bowl winning coach Mike Holmgren to run it. The Hawks made the playoffs three times under Holmgren, but lost each time. That brings us to 2005. Tune in tomorrow. more ›

As our roommate put it: "How old was I the last time the Seahawks won a playoff game? 28!" After Sunday's dramatic 20-10 win over Washington, the team's first playoff victory since 1984, the Seattle Seahawks (or "Shithawks" as they are known in other cities) will host the NFC Championship game next Sunday against the Carolina Panthers. The winner goes to the Super Bowl. more ›

As always when leading up to a big playoff game, the local papers are filled with human interest fluff. At the Times, exclusively fluff. Like "Veterans get Hawks in playoff mindset" and "Seahawks battling history as well as Washington." At the P-I, and on some internet sites, a few pieces of actual game analysis managed to sneak past the editors. more ›

National Champs!: The UW women's volleyball team swept favored Nebraska three games to none in the NCAA Championship game. The Huskies didn't lose a game the entire tournament--becoming only the second team to achieve that feat. more ›

That's not our prediction for the final tally in next week's Iraq elections, it's the combined score of the Seahawks' last two games. They are destroying opponents, something that doesn't happen often in the NFL. They have the NFC's best record and the second-best record in the NFL. more ›

There's not much to say about last night's Seahawks game. The score (42-0) says it all. So, unlike the P-I's Jim Moore, we will not bore you with hackneyed, purposeless bellyaching. more ›

The Husky football team, helped by a Hail Mary touchdown pass to end the second half, became the first state school to win a Pac-10 game this season, beating Arizona 38-14. The Dawgs host the Apple Cup next Saturday. more ›

The Seahawks are 6-2. Happy times! Let's let visions of Super Bowl rings and Gatorade showers dance through our heads. more ›

Kanye West, we hear, is one hot rapper hiphop artist. And he samples Ray Charles' "I Got a Woman" on his single "Gold Digger." Thus, in an attempt to appeal to the kids, we will sample the late great Ray on this post. more ›
