I would have to say the Rams with Roman Gabriel, and the fearsome foursome, also enjoyed the Vikings with the Purple people eaters and Fran.

Better question would be, "who were you a fan of before the Seahawks won the Super Bowl?"

When I was a wi little lad I actually liked the Steelers back in the mid 70's .... Obviously I adopted the Seahawks and was crazy excited we finally got a team, but continued to follow Pitt back in those day's ... Bradshaw was fun to watch with that offense, and there D was kicking people around .... It was all Blue after that though.... I've watched dam near every Seahawks game since day 1 ...

I think I would have loved to watch Steve Largent. I was too young when he played.

I became a bandwagon fan of the 49ers in the late 80s, when I first started getting into sports. I have been a fan of them ever since. So, I have stuck with them through thick and thin, and hardly anybody here is a 49er fan. It's all GB, CHI, KC, MIN, and some DET and STL. Basically teams in surrounding states.

If I was alive back then and if I wasn't a Steelers fan, I would probably be a fan of the Miami Dolphins. I really like reading about the Dolphins of the early 1970s, no real superstars but a great overall team. Also their colors.

My parents had season tickets to the Huskies since I was quite small which may be in part why I'm such a die hard college fan. Husky stadium in the 70's was just rocking.

As far as the NFL goes, I don't think I really had a favorite team. I liked the Cowboys cheerleaders, but not so much the team. It was more individual players and good games. Wasn't really a Raiders fan, but loved some of their players. Same went for GB and the Steelers.

Yep, exactly me too, we must be same age.

We only had a black and white TV, and the Rams helmets really stood out, also, it seemed the Rams were on a lot back then.

The answer would be the Seahawks of course.

Yep, I was born a Hawks fan, don't remember much about them until 1992 (though I know we watched all the games, but I really only remember a few from before that year). 1992 was special cause it was the first year that I had football cards, and actually knew who the players were (not to mention that started my obsession with sports statistics). Never had any other team higher than the Hawks, though I had a Steelers jersey and a Redskins jersey (also the only NFL player I have met played for the skins). Wore those all the time.

I was born in 1985, so it's has always been the Seahawks since the early 90's!
