Hey dude, loved the podcast. Listened from start to finish.
My Seahawks story dates back from Australia when I was 13 and i went to this fair in Melbourne.
I got an 'America' showbag which had a mini Seahawks football in it. NFL isn't really that big in Aus, so I didn't take much note of it at the time.
A few years later when the sport finally got some airtime on Aus TV, I started watching, and the more i watched , the more i loved it, and the more i loved it the more i watched.
I then researched the Seahawks on the net, watching hours of old footage, going through their history, looking at past players/games etc, and from there it basically turned into a full blown obsession.
I get sick of the whole 'if you haven't been a fan since birth you're not a real supporter' bullshit- pisses me off to no end haha.
Anyway, just thought you may be interested in some of your readers' Seahawks stories!
