Disgusted

I wasn’t going to discuss this here, but it’s been eating away at me for days. I’m talking about The Call that took a Super Bowl victory away from the players and the fans.

I became a Seahawk fan when I moved to the Seattle area in the early nineties and remained one after moving here. Throughout this season I’ve watched every game I could and jumped out of my chair and yelled my approval many times.

I’ve got this thing figured out and I’m really disgusted. I think a decision was made by the Seahawks management early on that if their crotch-grabbing, media shy running back was in a position to win the game in the red zone, they would defer to a slant pass. Wilson would be the MVP, with no controversy.

So how disgusted am I? I’m now no longer a Seahawk fan. If I decide to ever watch another football game again I guess I’ll figure out who to root for when that happens. It’s really sad actually, I’m running out of institutions to believe in…
