Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.
My dad is an OG Seahawk fan, been following them since the year they were founded. He got me into them at a very early age. Though we've lived far apart for 16 years, the Hawks have kept me and my father close. His fanhood is legit.
Of course, last year my mother decided to suddenly give a shit about the Hooks. She's a classic 12, could name maybe four players on the team but poasts about the team, follows Russell Wilson on FB, etc.
So I talked to the parentals today to nail down our trip home for the holidays, and dad inevitably turns the conversation to last night's game. He has some good poonts, and is generally not a dumbass about it. Then mom jumps in. "It was a great game! But it must have been so hard for those Cardinals fans to see their team loose like that. They haven't lost at home all year. I just felt so bad for them."
TL:DR; my mom's the worst kind of Hooks fan.
Thank you all for this therapy session.

I just don't understand this whole feeling sorry for the other team and/or their fans after a plungering.
If it was up to me, my favorite team would plunger their opponent 56-0 every single game for as long as I'm on this earth.
I guess the proper response is all fan bases suck so don't give a shit if their feelings are hurt.
It sure gets kids ready for the real world by teaching them life is always fair as long as you suck hard enough (lol)
#mytrappers probably haven't won a game since. Just a couple of years ago they were starting a girl at MLB. True Story.
Shes a woman. This isnt news. Im about 97% sure all the moms and wives or second dads of those who post here said the same exact thing.
Its the heterosexual dudes who know nothing about football and wear the 12 jerseys that get my goat. And they always have to be the loudest and most opinionated.
This isnt news. Sorry TS
No bullshit.
Yeah, going for fake punts and passing on 90% of the downs when you're up 40 is over the top, but the back-ups better damn well try and no one needs to kneel until the last minute. They might need to start someday.
You have to convey this to your mom.
