Sports Recap

Ok, so nobody on the east coast has ever heard of Seattle, or the Seattle Seahawks either and they've been such a soft team for such a long time nobody really thinks that they'll get tuff all of a sudden and clean everybody's clocks all the way to the Super Bowl.


Yeah? Well, we'll see about that, I think the Seahawks are tuffer than many people think. After all, they live in the Northwest, don't they?

Gumption

It really takes some gumption and I'm talking gumption with a capital "G-U-M-P-T-I-O-N" to live here.

I mean, it's been raining and raining and raining and it isn't only raining on the common people (such as myself), it's also been raining on the Seahawk football players (or on the windshields of their humongous SUVs).

People (and the Seahawks) are suffering but they've been really tuff about it, going above and beyond the call of duty on this, putting one foot in front of the other to keep on going even in the face of horrible conditions, never saying die or giving up in what could be called the fourth quarter of rain. Their backs have been against the wall all season and still they come back for more. Does that sound weak and soft?

No
No.

People in Seattle are cranky, the Seahawks are cranky. The people of Seattle (vicariously) and the Seahawks just need SOMEBODY to go out and hit.

And unfortunately for the Redskins (the Seahawks opponent or should I say victim this week) it's going to be them. I'd say I'm sorry but WE DON'T SAY WE'RE SORRY IN SEATTLE we're that tuff.

(Well, we do and we say thank you too and we don't think that cuts into our tuffness in any way shape or form because we've risen above old definitions of tuff to a new tuffer place (that involves 33 straight days of rain)).

Tony Kornbuttheiser

Some dude in the Washington newspapers, Tony Kornbuttheiser or sompin like that like we're supposed to know his name or sompin, says that the Northwest is full of Microsofters (shudda named themselves the MicroHARDers because they go after their competition in cutthroat fashion) and Starbuckers (that coffee is so HOT they need a warning on their cups it's so HOT) like it's something to be ashamed of and he says that the Redskins will Grind Them Up.

Mud

Good one, Tony, only it ain't going to happen. You (and the rest of the country) have NO idea what we've been going through here and let's just say I hope the Redskins can grind in MUD and I hope they're ready for a team that will be firing on all seven cylinders (the eighth one flooded full of water) who are going to be NASTY and who are going to take the Vaunted Redskins to the cleaners by gum.

After the game, right to the Corry's Fine Dry Cleaners the Seahawks will take them (because after all is said and done, the Seahawks are a very nice group of young men and they have a car) to clean off all the blood and mud off the Redskin's jerseys so they'll be ready for next season CUZ THE REDSKINS WON'T BE NEEDING THEM AGAIN THIS SEASON!!

Tuff, you ain't seen tuff. Or wet.
