I SHARE THE "SIGH" OF ANOTHER OFFENSIVE LINE CASUALTY. WE'VE GOT TO GET THAT TOGETHER, OR OUR SEASON IS DONE. THE THING ABOUT ASHWORTH IS WIERD TOO. DOES'NT SEEM LIKE HE'S BEEN ABLE TO CONTRIBUTE MUCH SO FAR, (IN A LIMITED ROLE), BUT WAS PART OF A SUPER BOWL SQUAD IN NEW ENGLAND. JUST PROVES AGAIN IT'S NOT JUST ONE PLAYER ON THE LINE, BUT HOW A TALENTED GROUP IS ALLOWED TO GEL TOGETHER OVER A PERIOD OF TIME, AND YOU DON'T LOSE A VALUABLE PIECE OF THAT PUZZLE, AND REMAIN THE SAME FORCE. (SOUND FAMILIAR?) I BELIVE WITH ALL MY HEART THAT'S WHERE SEATTLE'S TROUBLE BEGINS AND ENDS. OH, YEAH, AS WELL AS GETTING BACK A PRO-BOWL SUPER BOWL QB, AN NFL MVP PRO-BOWL RUNNING BACK, A STELLAR VETERAN WIDE RECEIVER, ANOTHER FREE-AGENT OVER ACHEIVING SAFETY, A HEALTHY FRONT LINE THAT GETS TO PLAY MORE THAN ONE GAME AT A TIME TOGETHER, ANOTHER INJURED TIGHT END, OR TWO, AND AN IJURED LINEBACKER-SPECIAL TEAMS PLAYER...ETC...ETC...I'D JUST LOVE TO SEE HOW WE WOULD LOOK IN THE LAST QUARTER OF THE SEASON, WHEN WE GET ALL OUR PIECES IN PLACE, IF WE'RE STILL SOMEWHAT IN CONTENTION BY THEN. WE PROBABLY WON'T BE 13-2, WITH A FIRST ROUND BYE, AND HOME FIELD THROUGHOUT THE CONFERENCE PLAYOFFS, BUT IF WE CAN JUST GET ON A ROLL, AND AT LEAST WIN THE DIVISION, WHO KNOWS. I CAN'T BEAR THE POSSIBILITY OF AFTER WAITING 26 YEARS AS A SEAHAWK FAN, HAVING THAT ATROCITY OF A SUPER BOWL LAST SEASON BE THE CLOSEST WE EVER GET TO THE LOMBARDI TROPHY. MAYBE AFTER THE BUS AND COWHER GET DONE ENJOYING IT, THEY CAN SET IT ON THE MANTLE OF WHO SO RICHLY DESERVES IT.....................bill leavy.
