But you don't know if you're gonna lose until it happens, if you're in the game, you might win, that's my point... When you're watching the game you don't know the result, at least your team battled...
i will buy that, from a fan perspective, absolutely

Mariner fans were pretty pumped when they thought they were going to win 100 games.

Then not so much
I didn't know of any Mariners who thought that. The team had a negative run differential all season long, even when their winning percentage was at it's highest. But Seattle has more than it's share if delusional fans. Comes with the territory in a mostly liberal fan base.

Team might not be, people in this thread sure are.


People, like you.

Yeah, but we're allowed to do that. We're not a team. We're just guys evaluating teams from the outside.

im referring to your autistic comments, of course you didnt make them, you dont remember. Im all for shit talking, trash talking, trolling , personal attacks. But it takes a special person to make fun of disabilities. It is what it is, but I know those comments would hurt a few on this board for multiple reasons, know that for a fact. Hence why i replied to possibly refrain from those comments. But you of course ignored that. Either way it is what is. Not butthurt at all its in the internet,i could give two shits.

Oh so I'm dishonest now, LMAO!!!! Keep your opinion to yourself bro, Bears didn't dominate shit, game was in striking range, Russ made a critical mistake late, game was in the balance... I"m done ....

Yes, I suggest you tap out.

It was in striking range for not even 30 seconds in the 4th quarter.

It was 24-10 until a touchdown with 14 seconds left. Until that final drive the Bears outgained Seattle by 100 yards, held them to 177 yards total, out possessed them by 10 minutes and had 20-12 in first downs.

Please, explain to me how that game could have gone either way. Explain to me how a game which ended with you all making it 24-17 with 14 seconds remaining could have gone either way.

Come on... I got to hear this. If you guys pull that game out at the end - it is ALL-TIME miracle material. lol... Totally either way

Oh my god... I have never read such a weasling, scumbag, cowardly post on a message board in my life.

There is no way you are ACTUALLY stooping down to this level of grandstanding and righteousness over a stupid internet sports debate. To OUTRIGHT PRETEND AND LIE that I was making fun of disabilities. Because I reference "Rain Man"!?

This is disgusting.

I was making fun of YOU and you KNOW THAT. I drew the parallel to Rain Man because he obsessed over solving Math problems - like you obsess over SOS. BUT AGAIN... you know this. I don't ACTUALLY have to tell you this. No one in their right mind would believe that = "He's making fun of autism"

YET... over a Rain Man reference where I did not even mention autism or people with autism. You knowingly take a leap a thousand feet forward and do ten backflips to try and make this something it's not.

You're a piece of shit person. A slithering, slime ball piece of shit. I know people like you.

Fun little side note: I am a weight loss specialist who currently trains an autistic boy who was abused as a child by neglectful addict parents for FREE - because his aunt/uncle cannot afford my rate. I spend hours trying to establish a connection with this kid every week and have taken him in as a personal project of mine. But GOD... I just hate those autistics!

Honestly, I liked you and was having fun... but fuck you. You're a shitty dishonest person. I am not a violent man - but I'd love to get my hands on you right now. Weasling little fuck.

When you say shit like that about people - it's fucking serious. It's not a game.

You should be absolutely ashamed of your behavior.

Seattle has fallen a bit - just not NEAR what everyone expected. I think I called Seattle a .500 team this year (and that was with a healthy Garappolo).

Reasoning:
  • Wilson can still keep them in games
  • I considered the OL improved with Fluker/Brown and Cable gone.
  • Jimmy Graham was never utilized properly anyway, so whatever.
  • Still had Bobby Wagner/ET (least we thought) and Seattle spent a lot of draft capital on secondary over the last few years, but everyone apparently forgot that and that Seattle has one of the best secondary HCs in NFL history.
  • McDougald played great last year and was on fire in preseason/TC.
To me the big issue was the DL, which has certainly been the key culprit to giving up points this year... but I think we all knew that. Not able to resign Richardson was a big blow.


ANYWAY, I saw tons of people predicting Seattle would be drafting top 5 with a 4-12 record and the 49ers would be some 10-6 WC team competing for the division. I'm not sure WHERE the fuck people were getting that... flip flop that even with Jimmy Garappolo and it's more realistic.
Yeah I see the Hawks finishing 9-7 this season. That's not all that bad when you consider what their roster looked like in training camp.

Your tenuous grasp on the English language screams that this is quite possibly a complete lie.

Regardless, you just took a passing joke(s?) someone made in a football thread on the fucking internet. Then tried to actually slander him and his character as if he's legitimately making fun of those with disabilities. When you clearly know that isn't the case. Not just that... you were making it sound like that's my "calling card". You KNOW that's not what I was doing... yet... you decided to say it was the case anyway.

As if you could POSSIBLY know my character from our interactions revolving around this stupid shit to begin with. I don't know you. You don't know me.

That is a disgusting, shameful thing to do to somebody. This board stooped to a new low.

This was a football conversation and you made it personal on a level with which I have never encountered on a forum like this before.

Please... don't do that again.

It wasn't just Seattle fans. The national media predicted during the dog days of summer four teams could reach 100. Boston, NYY, Houston and Seattle.

OK let me end this disagreement right now, because for some reason your mind can't wrap around what a close game looks like ... with 6 min left in the game Seattle was down 7 points with possession, Wilson threw a pick 6 which basically ended our chances, that was only the 3rd time I believe in his entire career he's done that... Here is the video since your mind somehow can't accept that the game was in the balance late.... Here you go... PROOF just for you... go to 7:20 of the video, look at the time left, and the score... I rest my case...

You have to give credit to Pete maintaining a competitive team.
#1 priority in the off season was to get a running game going.
He coaches up D players trying to put them into spots where they can succeed.
It's all about the coach, and yes I know he make mistakes. It's part of being a humanoid.

I literally said this in my first post and multiple posts after that. LMAO. Thank you for proving my point with video.

Yes, like I said... Seattle had the ball for FOUR total plays in the 4th quarter when within one score. Then, it was ABRUPTLY and IMMEDIATELY turned into a two TD game.

Cutting the lead to 7 and then IMMEDIATELY giving up a pick six to make it 24-10 again? You think THIS is what constitutes a competitive game? Lol

that was only the 3rd time I believe in his entire career he's done that

Yes. The Bears D is very good and they pressured/sacked Wilson a lot that night. Forced a lot of hurried throws.

accept that the game was in the balance late


Read my FUCKING words... YES... it was a tightly contested game in the 4th for 4 plays. This is ALLLLL that I have said. As a Bears fan, I was relaxed the entire game - worried for four plays that we might blow another game in which we dominated for the vast majority of the contest... and then immediately relaxed again in one blink of an eye as the D took it home.


You guys had zero chance at the end of that football game. You would have had to recover an onside kick and complete a hail mary inside of 14 seconds. lol. How is this hard to comprehend? The game did not go to the wire. This isn't debatable.

Do you honestly think Seattle deserved to win that game more than the Bears? My god, what a homer.
