"The deluded Seahawks fans actually call themselves The 12th Man." Which brings up a question. Do they stand up the entire game? I mean, if you are going to steal a tradition, you should at least do it right...

To understand what's wrong with politics today, take a good look during the Super Bowl at the Steeler fans with their Terrible Towels. Imagine what's happening inside their minds as they wave the gold rags. This is your brain on partisan politics. This is the level of rational deliberation measured by Emory researchers who scanned the brains of devout Republicans and Democrats contemplating statements by George Bush or John Kerry. When faced with contradictions by their party's leader, the partisans responded like the Pittsburghers who still refer to Franco Harris's dubious touchdown in 1972 as the Immaculate Reception. You should have heard one of the Stealers aka Squealers......I think it was Jerome Bettis, their RB, talking about how they were going to systematically injure different members of the Seahawks in the first quarter of the game tomorrow. I thought it was a game, not a war.
