Okay, sports fans -- the Seahawks just fired their head coach

[Missy Vixen]

This was announced about an hour ago via Jay Glazer of FOX Sports.

It looks like they're blowing it all up and starting over.

What do you think about this?

1. I'm thinking I'm reminiscing about Chuck Knox.

15. +1

I think thay have to find a new quarterback. Otherwise they just keep sinking.

[Broken_Hero]

2. I'm thinking

Well, we will suck again during another rebuilding year...at least the M's look stronger

[Missy Vixen]

4. Oh, this will be all kinds of fun

There are multiple Seahawks players who just had to change their pants, I'm thinking...

Wow. I had a feeling this would happen, but I was hoping I was wrong.

[madinmaryland]

3. He was there only one year.

:wtf:

[Missy Vixen]

5. It was a bad fit from the beginning

There are several incidents that precipitated this, but I'm thinking mostly it was costing the Seahawks a chance at a GM they really wanted.

Paul Allen just left $12 million on the table for a reason.

6. Wow. Didn't they heavily recruit him for a couple of years?

Seems like they had worked really hard to get him, then they fired him after a year?

Maybe they want to hire Mike Leach. :)

7. Didn't they move to Tulsa?

[pscot]

16. If only

Bring back the Supes. Please.

8. Pete Carroll is gonna take it

all over town down here

[jobycom]

10. That would be funny.

Didn't he suck in the pros? Does Seattle have a moral objection to winning or something?

Then USC could hire Mike Leach. Great coach, you just might have to monitor him around invalids, old people, dogs, injured players, and other human beings. He'd make USC dangerous, though--dangerous for other teams, dangerous for his own players...

12. Bill Belichick's first NFL gig didn't go so well either.

He learned.

Maybe Pete Carroll has learned too.

Living up here, there is just no life with the Seahawks right now. No one talks about them, except to say how much they suck. The buzz is with the Mariners UW and Sounders right now. Hell Seattle U's move to D-I hoops is generating more positive buzz.

[Capn Sunshine]

13. There's a lot of evidence.

Pete was really into LA Live, a downtown development. He's best friends with the developer Tim Leiweke. Recognize that name Seahawks fans? That's right. Tim is Seahawks CEO Tod Leiweke's brother.

There's something cooking.

[Missy Vixen]

14. Oh, for God's sake

That explains it all.

>He's best friends with the developer Tim Leiweke. Recognize that name Seahawks fans? That's right. Tim is Seahawks CEO Tod Leiweke's brother.<

I have no reason to doubt you, and let's just say that we have friends who work for the local ESPN affiliate. I'm mailing them right now.

Seahawks fans will go insane over this info...

[Capn Sunshine]

19. Details of the Carroll offer

7 million per year. President AND Head Coach.
Steve Kelly at the Seattle times hates the idea

[Kajsa]

20. That is the No. #1 story in all the news

in greater LA/OC today.

I'm not happy- bring Holmy back, Please!

[Captain Hilts]

9. Now they need to fire their fashion designer. Those unis are u-g-l-y. nt

[Missy Vixen]

17. Captain Hilts, you don't like our uniforms?

I really like the Seahawk blue ones. The lime ones? They take a bit of getting used to. Warning, big photo. ;-)

[Captain Hilts]

18. Missy, I like the lime touches, it's the way the pants horribly show sweat stains, etc. Yick! nt

[LibertyLover]

11. Well, that means when Shanahan (yeah I spelled it wrong)

tanks as the Redskins coach there will be some other poor SOB who can be tapped for the job.
