Another great weekend in the books as we were in the throng at Qwest field and survived the emotional rollercoaster that was the Seahawks home playoff game in the wildcard round. After many crazy sequences the Seahawks managed to pull out a close with in the final seconds over the dreaded Dallas Cowboys by the 21-20 margin after a botched field goal attempt from the 1 yard line!! Even with the miss-handled snap on the play a shoe-string tackle was required to avert last-minute disaster for the Hawks, what a game!! They had a great give-away at the game with "12-man" green gloves for the first 50,000 fans. As you can see Janelle thought they were great fun!! As usual we had some great seats courtesy of the Weaver parents season tickets and the help of my bro John in the Hawks office making sure I got my playoff seats. A great way to see the game with friends John, Amy McKenna, Jesse and Steph Paulson, and the Hoadley twins. It has been incredibly memorable to see all this great football in what might be considered the heyday of the Hawks organization. The weather held after all of our miserable rain, we won a close game over a hated foe, and we are still in the running for the Superbowl in Miami....tough to beat for a weekend. I also managed to get a fun pic of the stadium all lit up as we left the field of battle on Saturday. Good times. This week I also started two of my indoor v-ball leagues as I have coed 6's on Thursdays and men's 6's on Sundays. It will be a very interesting league for the men as along with many of the usual opponents there is a team comprised of entirely sand guys, some of the best in the region in fact. There is always some lingering bad blood between the dedicated outdoor versus indoor guys so our match versus them I think will prove interesting at the very least. More to come form this as things develop. At any rate I am glad to start back into the swing of things on the hard court and look forward to this coming Saturday as we head South to the Rose City of Portland, OR for our first men's USAV tournament of the year. We are going down with a little bit of a miss-matched crew but looking forward to the fun just the same. I am also looking forward to starting a fun indoor soccer season with my brother along with friends the Hoadley twins, Mark Kadlec, Lee Graber, and others. Should be another fun time and a great way to get back in shape if I can manage it.
