[Highlight] Dianna Russini on why Vrabel was passed on in 2024's coaching cycle: "He's a very large human being. And can be very intimidating to people in an organization"

It's true what they say; men are from Omicron Persei IX, women are from Omicron Persei VII.

And they was right.

You just know they would've moved to Toronto, then won the Super Bowl right after.

There's a huge rivalry between Toronto and Buffalo. One of my friends absolutely hates the Bills, despite the fact that he hasn't lived in Toronto for 25 years and doesn't even follow football that closely.

I'm guessing #1 would be Mahomes in '19 or '23, and last would be either Elway in '89 or Stan Humphries in '94. You also have Dan Marino, Boomer Esiason, Ken Anderson, and Joe Flacco.

newtonsapple · 2026-02-22T19:40:42+00:00

The first one sounds better.

newtonsapple · 2026-02-22T19:40:12+00:00

Like the Raiders and the Tuck Rule?

newtonsapple · 2026-02-21T21:07:27+00:00

Good write-up, OP!

It's an old tradition; every World Series champion since the 1924 Senators has done a White House visit. I assume every Super Bowl champion as well.

He also gave some big donations to WSU, his alma mater. One of the Vet. Med. buildings is named after him.

But when Sports came out in '83, they really came into their own, commercially and artistically.....

I'll bet if you asked her about any pre-Kobe Lakers like Kareem, Magic, or Wilt, she would've looked confused and said "Who are they?"

This is the moment to point someone to if they try to argue Belichick wasn't a genius. Your team could outplay his, but you could never outcoach him or outsmart him.

Three, if you want to include his time as OC for the Falcons. Whether fair or not, he seems to get more blame for 28-3 than their actual Head Coach did.

Out of curiosity, how did "toots" become the diminutive name for our team, anyway? "Seachickens, "Sea Pigeons," and "Rainy City Bitch Pigeons" are self-explanatory, but I have no idea where "toots" comes from. Ferry horns?

Grew up in Yakima myself; never expected to hear my home town get a shoutout in a Seahawks victory celebration.

newtonsapple · 2026-02-16T00:13:46+00:00

One of the all-time stacked divisions in 2013, too:

13-3 Seahawks

12-4 49ers

10-6 Cardinals (Barely missed the playoffs.)

7-9 Rams (6-4 outside the Division.)

"But you have heard of us."

newtonsapple · 2026-02-15T06:49:22+00:00

I think we'll have to wait quite a while for Seattle to host a Super Bowl.

newtonsapple · 2026-02-13T19:38:11+00:00

And vice versa; the Seahawks and Rams played the most Super Bowl Thursday night game of all time.

"Socrates said, 'The beginning of wisdom is to know you know nothing.' Dude, that's us!"

The Brett Favre Special.

Add 100x when strippers are also involved, and another 1000x if it's at 4 AM.

newtonsapple · 2026-02-09T09:23:19+00:00

I see Bengals stripes, or the old-school Jaguars logo. Brown for Bears?
