When the dust of an underwhelming offseason had settled for the Seattle Seahawks, the nation watched on, taking a very hard stance toward what appeared to be the deepest spring cleaning, one even your mother couldn’t hold a candle to. A house-cleaning analogy seemed fitting on the surface, but much like the chore itself, it … Continue reading What Makes a House a Home
Initially, after Janikowski’s game-winner went through the uprights, I went blank; relieved, surely, but also in acute shock that the Seattle Seahawks had even been in a position to win in the first place.
