A Lifetime Seahawk Fan, Don’t Ask Me Why!!

The Seahawks are fifty years old. Jim Zorn started my devoted fandom to this team in 1976, What was the criteria to pick my perfect team to follow for most of my life? At twenty years old, I was extremely scientific about my process. Zorn, the Seahawks quarterback, had the best bootie in the NFL I proved this with much research checking out all the backsides in the league. It was a grueling job but someone had to do it. 

Now here I am fifty years later approaching my seventieth birthday and still a 12. They are going to the 60th Super Bowl today with a quarterback who is young enough to be my grandson. To be honest, I have never once checked out his rear end. With age comes wisdom, I suppose. Now I am a fan out of loyalty and the love of lime green. I am sure that they added this touch of my favorite color to their uniforms just for me in 2009.

So today, I am watching the game with Ronnie B and making snacks ahead of time. Because during the game I don’t even to miss a moment to go pee. No distractions! Just the game and texting to my son who moved to Tacoma and became what he said he would never be. Yes, he is an avid Seahawks fan like his mom. No, he did not pick the team for the backside of Russell Wilson who was qb when he became a fan. He became a fan because how can you live in Washington and not be one. Especially since the year he moved there our Hawks went to the Super Bowl. They beat his old team, the Broncos. That cemented the Seahawks as not just my team but a bit of a family team. I love that!   Go Hawks!

In Him,

Joyful
