Happy New Year 12′s!
So, you woke up yesterday morning a little worse for the wear after overindulging in the New Year’s celebrations with too much Red Hook ESB drained from your giant novelty Seahawks tumbler glass, while drunkenly bragging of once seeing Russell Wilson hanging out at Red Mill burger on North 67th.
That’s OK.
It’s the holidays and everyone’s in the mood to celebrate, especially in the wake of such a great ‘Hawks season to date.
However, a new year means a fresh start and a time to throw out the old, tired and uncomfortable habits of the sordid past in order to make space for the new and improved you.
Even the best of us need a refresher, and our favourite football team is no different.
Here are five resolutions for members of the Seattle pigskin pros and community.
The Drug Store
No more late night pharmaceutical visits to Walgreen’s to purchase past-it’s-due-date medication from the part-time staff to stave off those inconvenient positive drug tests for Brandon Browner, Richard Sherman or any other member of the secondary.
Russell Okung will promise to lay off the salads
Win Forever
For Coach Carroll to finally come out of his shell and learn to emote. That stiff upper lip sideline celebration persona of his is tiring and clearly needs some work.
More Fibre
Russell Okung will promise to lay off the salads and finally start to add some much needed bulk in order to be well prepared for the Pro Bowl. We can all tell he is looking a little too svelte at the moment.
Don’t play Like A Rook
Russell Wilson will get some more experience, because is the 4th overall pass rating really the best he can do?
BeastCards
Marshawn Lynch will resolve to send out more Get Well cards to those defenders he brutally stiff-armed and steamrolled through the year.
After all it is the thoughtful thing to do.
Well Seahawks fans, what are your thoughts for New Year’s resolutions?

Russell Wilson or Robert Griffin III: Rookie Rundown
In April 2012, the Washington Redskins took a risk and traded up to draft Robert Griffin III of Baylor as the second overall pick in the NFL Draft. The Redskins brought in Griffin to be the savior. He was the future of a franchise that was completely void of a consistent quarterback. Expectations were high and the stakes were higher. This was a boom or bust draft pick for everyone...

Seahawks understand they win as a team
8-0 at home, undefeated since November 25th, scoring a combined 170 points in the last four games, Russell Wilson and the Seattle Seahawks are flying higher than they have in years. Maybe it’s due to their aggressive yet smart defense led by Earl Thomas, maybe it is the roaring 12th Man for which they perform, maybe it’s their rookie quarterback that is “too short” to be...
Seattle Seahawks have too much MEAT for Redskins
In the NFC Division Wildcard, you must account for the Seattle Seahawks’ MEAT.
I know it’s not the flashiest thing to talk about. I will concede that it’s easier to talk about Robert Griffin III and Russell Wilson (because we all know flashy quarterbacks win playoff games1). Hell, ESPN has virtually made it a quarterback combine competition. At this point I’m surprised that...
