After the domination by the Seattle Seahawks in Superbowl 48, I felt like I had to say some things. First off, this was my first year following the NFL closely. Before Preseason, my buddy and I decided to follow football this year and more clearly, we chose teams we would follow. He chose the San Francisco 49ers. I chose the Seattle Seahawks. Now, I don't know why I chose them. It may be because I love the city of Seattle. It may be because I feel some connection there considering I spent around a year there in an adoption agency. Either way, I chose the Seahawks. All season long, I followed the Seahawks, learned about them and considered myself a 12, but I never was able to see a game. I had work, or church or homework. Finally, they played in the Divisionals against New Orleans Saints. My friends and I went to Buffalo Wild Wings to watch the event. In the NFC Championship Game they played against the 49ers and won. Learning their history, I understood that Quarterback, Russell Wilson was only second year in and the Hawks had only made it to the Superbowl one other time with Shaun Alexander back in 2005. When Eli the Orangutan predicted Seahawks to win the Superbowl, I got excited. Now that they take home the Lombardi Trophy, I am happy for them and all the other 12's that have followed them a lot longer than I have. Russell Wilson, second year Quarterback, Marshawn Lynch, Derrick Coleman, Richard Sherman, Golden Tate, Jermaine Kearse, Malcolm Smith, Percy Harvin, and other Hawks deserved the win. Congratulations!
