ESPN Writer Puts A Few "Motherfuckers" In Doug Baldwin's Mouth
Doug Baldwin's postgame rant at the media produced some great soundbites, but none quite as percussive as the ones quoted in this brief on-the-scene report from ESPN Seahawks writer Terry Blount, in which Baldwin is twice misquoted in a way that makes his outburst seem much more profane that it wa...

Paul Pierce Channels Surly Russell Westbrook In Postgame Interview
On Friday night, Thunder point guard Russell Westbrook pulled a Marshawn Lynch during his postgame media scrum, answering every question with some version of "we did a good job executing" before looking one reporter dead in the face and saying, "I just don't like you."

Doug Baldwin Is Probably Still Looking For Doubters To Call Out
Seahawks wide receiver Doug Baldwin made a brief and profane cameo in the madness immediately following Jermaine Kearse's game-winning touchdown catch, but that was just the start of his postgame highlight reel.

Brandon Bostick Wasn't Supposed To Try To Catch That Onside Kick
On the other side of the Seahawks’ disbelieving delirium is, necessarily, a whole lot of Packers feeling individually shitty about something they did, or failed to do, any one of which might have been enough to ice this game for good. Settling for a pair of field goals from the 1-yard line comes to ...
Seahawks Radio Broadcast Erupts In Screams, Cursing After Kearse Catch
This 90-second clip from Seahawks radio flagship KIRO has it all: ecstatic announcers celebrating Seattle's return to the Super Bowl, Doug Baldwin profanely asserting that Russell Wilson "didn't have a fuckin' message" before the game-winning drive, and Jermaine Kearse insisting that "I know I did...

Michael Bennett Rode A Police Bike Around The Field
After a game like that, I don't think it's possible for anything to seem weird. A Seahawks DE commandeering a police bicycle, and pedaling triumphantly down the sideline and across the CenturyLink turf, feels entirely normal!...

Seahawks Finally Get On Board With Punter-To-Tackle Field Goal Fake
Seattle finally put a dent in Green Bay's 16-0 lead with a touchdown pass—but not from Russell Wilson, and not to a Seahawks wide receiver. No, it was punter Jon Ryan finding offensive tackle Garry Gilliam in the end zone on a fake field goal. That's what we all expected, right?...
