I am hoping it will not be a blowout regardless of who wins.
Maybe we should go watch the game at Poodle Girl's. If we drink enough of his single malt he's got hidden we may not care who wins or loses. If it's like the last time we went over there, we'll be lucky to find which TV channel it's on.
Maybe he'll let us drive his new car. Hay! wouldn't that... sorry I meant to say, Hey!

For me, this was better than the Super Bowl which now, seems more like an afterthought and somewhat anti-climatic. To beat our most bitter rival in this fashion with all the lead-up to this game even in the national media, was HUGE.
Beating the Broncos in a couple weeks seems unimportant now. Won't be nearly as much fun as beating our biggest NFC rival today.
But...for the record... Go HAWKS!

That was one hell of an ugly game. I'm a long time Niner fan, but rooted for the Hawks cause I like them too, love Pete Carroll (USC fan) and they deserve a Superbowl Ring.
But where were the Offensive Line? Russell spent more time back pedaling than anything. 4 sacks. And no one seemed to have anticipated Kapeneck's speed....it was not a good Hawks showing that's for sure.

Then that long run by Koepernik (or whatever his name is) was a fluke, though the Hawk's defense was probably to blame.
In the end, the Hawks finally persevered and deserved to win. But, you're right, it wasn't the prettiest game ever played, but it sure was fun to watch.
