The Seattle Seahawks are a professional American football franchise in the National Football League (NFL) based in Seattle, Washington. They are members of the West Division of the National Football Conference (NFC). The Seahawks joined the NFL in 1976 as an expansion team along with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Seahawks are owned by Paul Allen, co-founder of Microsoft, and are currently coached by Pete Carroll. Since 2002 the Seahawks have played their home games at CenturyLink Field near downtown Seattle after previously playing home games in the Kingdome (1976-2000) and Husky Stadium (2001).

What do you expect from the 'Apostle of Grief'?

Look man, I don't get the "our team" bullshit. And the reason is, as we can see, is that it isn't our team. It's a team owned by Paul Allen. They just happen to play here. I cringe everytime I see some idiot saying how proud he is of the team. What worthless bullshit.PostGameOrangeSlices said:You're the worst poster on this board.

At least with college football there is a connection on some level. -

Great. My point still stands. -
If you could buy stock in it or something, like Boeing, then maybe, yes it could be "our" team. But that isn't the case. It's a private company owned by Paul Allen. It's his team to cry over.PostGameOrangeSlices said:ApostleofGrief said:

The fact is ... Paul Allen has shit if the fans don't buy the shirts and go to the games etc...
So technically it is Seattle's team.
Paul Allen would have one hell of a bill and no income if the team was not embraced, axe Ken Behring. -

Nope. All he does is set up shop here and look for suckers stupid enough to believe it's Seattle's team, "our" team. Not so. -
At least over at dawgman this thread would be deleted and TS would be on timeout. Get your shit together mods

Couldn't that be said about most NFL teams, except Green Bay? So what's your point?ApostleofGrief said:

Not everyone went to the local university. . .if we all had to have some sort of personal
affiliation we our teams we could kiss most sports good-bye. NFL, MLB, NBA, MLS, and most college sports.
AOG. . .Maybe you should move to Green Bay.ApostleofGrief said:topdawgnc said:

If it were not for me most of you would be thinking that hiring anybody that ever breathed in the same airspace as Don James would guarantee the return of the Don James era and you'd also go along thinking incorrectly that the Seahawks were Seattle's team.phineas said:At least over at dawgman this thread would be deleted and TS would be on timeout.

BUT THEY HAVE A CONTRACT!!!! -
Apostle of Grief doesn't get it. Should nobody root for a pro sports team because they don't own it? Are you so fucking retarded that you think paying taxes makes UW your team?
-
Are you PL_SS's fucktarded brother?
-
As tracker noted, the Packers are the only publicly owned NFL franchise. When coupled with what RD55 said: FUCK THE HAWKS!! GO DAWGS!!! GO COUGS!!!! GO VIKINGS!!! GO EAGLES!!! GO RODEO CLOWNS!!!! GO BONGS!!!! (or in my case, Longhorns, Aggies, Red Raiders, etc)
-
However, the judges would have accepted:
"...they're Sumner's team." -
I didn't say any of that. Go ahead and watch. But, don't call it our team. It isn't our team. It's Paul Allen's team. That's all I said.RoadDawg55 said:Apostle of Grief doesn't get it.

But what about Race's Heat? APAG's Eagles?
-
so by your logic is the only reason I can say Seattle is my city is that I own a small parcel of land here?
-
I didn't say that either. Look, if sombody, say John Smith, starts an archery team, and opens an auditorium to watch them shooting arrows, and the team is 100% owned by John Smith, does that mean it is "your team" if you live nearby and go watch the archery? No. All it means is you are watching a team owned by John Smith. But suppose he tries to convince you that the archery team is "your team" with t-shirts and people flying archery flags from their cars. You start believing it is your team. But it isn't.bigcc said:so by your logic is the only reason I can say Seattle is my city is that I own a small parcel of land here?

Fine, fine, fine.... but he asked..... bottom line: it drives me nuts to see people proud of their team. Problem: it's not their team. Case closed.RoadDawg55 said:

Except it isn't logic. Logic is used to convey and prove some proposition as true necessarily from grounds.PostGameOrangeSlices said:ApostleofGrief said:

In this case it isn't logic, just simple fact. I didn't claim anything other than the Seahawks are owned by Paul Allen. Look it up if you still don't believe me.
