I became a Seahawk fan because ...

I grew up in Philadelphia, PA in an Italian and Irish neighborhood who rooted for Penn State (Italian) or Notre Dame (Irish). My grandfather, who I was obsessed with was born in Italy, therefore he always supported Joe Paterno.

Well, back in the early 80's all Seahawk fans know who the running back for the Nittany Lions was, none other that the original Curt Warner.

When the Hawks drafted Warner in I belive 83, the next year for Christmas I got a Seahawks Curt Warner jersey, and the obsession started.

My favorite player is ...

With that story you would think Curt Warner is my favotite Hawk of all time. This is a difficult one for me. I love Steve Largent, but I can't remember when we had a quarterback as good as Matthew. That's not to say Jim Zorn was not good, just before my time.

I prefer [old] [new] colors and uniforms because ...

As for the uniforms, has to be ther old school one,because of the tattoo on my leg.

How many games have you attended?

I have attended two Hawks games. The first was at old Veterans stadium in Philly. I sat in the "dreaded" 700 level with my Rick Mirer jersey on and cheered every time the Hawks scored. They won the game 38-0.

I also attended the Rams game last year at Qwest with my wife, a new Hawks fan, what a great experience. That place is rockin' on game day. I have never seen anything like it.
