Is PFT's Florio Blinded by Hatred, Indifference or Stupidity?

Yes, I admit Pro Football Talk is a pretty indispensible NFL blog, but when you go over there you have to whip out your mental machete and hack through a lot of TALLLL grass of ignorance about our Seattle Seahawks. Today's example is actually from Florio's Sporting News column (which I aint gonna link to), in which he put up a list of active players who he thinks have a shot at the Hall of Fame.

The locks: Tom Brady, Payton Manning, Ladanian Tomlinson, Ray Lewis, and Tony Gonzalez.

No argument about any of those guys being 1st ballot inductees, but also no Walter Jones. Hmmm.. maybe he'll be among Florio's "borderline" cases...

Kurt Warner....

Terrell Owens....

Adam Vinatieri... (ok, now I'm starting to get pissed)

Edgerrin James....

And... get ready to spit out your Jones Soda and Tim's Cascade Style Chips:

Kevin Mawae.

KEVIN F**KING MAWAE?

Nice player, former Hawk, but last time I checked he wasn't one of the top 4 players of the decade... or on just about every all-decade team you could find on the internets... Yes, it's true: Walter Jones is the greatest Seahawk ever.

...and to Mike Florio, he's invisible. THAT should be embarrassing to PFT and NBC Sports, but who gives a shit about South Alaska, right?

Just to prove what a tool that clown is, all the players, sans Kevin Mawae, are at high visibility positions. Just another member of our national media.
