The reason your Seahawks page compelled me to write you is that you included Kenny Easley as a Hall-of-Fame Seahawk. I completely agree, but a surprising amount of people, especially my age, have never even heard of him (I'm 19). And an even fewer amount, meaning you are the first person, have heard of Daryl Turner, who until Joey Galloway, was the second best receiver in Seahawk history.

I first started watching football in that 1986 season, which happens to be the best Seahawk team ever, in my opinion. Since then they have only frustrated me, and now that the Arizona Cardinals clinched a playoff spot earlier today, every single team in the NFL has made the playoffs since the last time the Seahawks did. I know you like stories, so how about when the Seahawks beat the Broncos in the last game of the 1986 season by like 30 points. Curt Warner ran all over them, but they didn't make the playoffs despite winning their last 5 games to go 10-6. The Super Bowl champion Giants only lost 2 games that year, one was to the Seahawks.
