Here's How Seahawks Corner Richard Sherman Got Himself Punched In The Face On Sunday
Seahawks corner Richard Sherman is an NFL trash-talker ready-made for the internet age. He was one of the NFL's best defensive backs as a rookie in 2011, and yet he didn't register in the national consciousness until he threw a "U MAD BRO?" Tom Brady's way on Twitter in October....

Robert Griffin III Twisted His Knee On A Dead Patch Of Sports Language
LANDOVER, Md.—After the Redskins' 24-14 playoff loss to the Seahawks, Washington's players and head coach talked about the "difference between being injured and being hurt," the importance of being there for your teammates, and how, in the words of Robert Griffin III, "you have to step up and be a m...

Dr. James Andrews For Head Coach: Seahawks-Redskins, In Five GIFs
Seattle 24, Washington 14: It's fair to debate Mike Shanahan's decision to keep a hobbled Robert Griffin III in the game today: For much of the first half, it looked like a gamble in the process of paying off, and Griffin has been so stellar for so much of this year that it's hard to imagine Kirk C...

DeAngelo Hall On The Seahawks: "They Don't Like Us And We Don't Like Them."
Every morning, the fine folks at Sports Radio Interviews sift through the a.m. drive-time chatter to bring you the best interviews with coaches, players, and personalities across the sports landscape. Today: Washington and Seattle prepare to get physical....

Seahawks Corner Richard Sherman Won His PED Test Appeal, And Then Dropped The Mic On Twitter
Back in November, Seahawks corners Brandon Browner and Richard Sherman—the league's best tandem, until Darrelle Revis's ACL heals—both tested positive for performance-enhancing drugs (reportedly Adderall) and faced four-game suspensions. Browner decided not to appeal, and his suspension will conclud...

Russell Wilson Is The Quarterback Darrell Bevell Always Wanted
Nineteen years ago, Darrell Bevell, a redshirt freshman transfer fresh off his Mormon mission, led Wisconsin to its first Rose Bowl win—an ugly 21-16 victory over UCLA that featured seven fumbles. Bevell's clinching touchdown came on a particularly un-balletic play. The video isn't online, but here'...

It's Easier To Rout A Team When You're Making Catches Like This: Sunday Night Football, In Four GIFs
Seattle 42, San Francisco 13: In a battle of what Cris Collinsworth called two "top-end throwers"—i.e, two NFL quarterbacks, in this case Russell Wilson and Colin Kaepernick—it was Wilson who was the topper-end thrower; he looked like he had roughly twice the experience as a starter, which, oddly, ...

Chris Berman Plays His Greatest Hits: Deux, Deux, Deux
Like any good showman knows, you've got to give the people what they want. And, clearly, what the people want is an homage to a bit on foreign painkillers from a lovable oaf. So this morning on Sunday NFL Countdown, Chris Berman used the Buffalo Bills "home game" in Toronto against the Seahawks to...

Vince Young Is Watching The Arizona Cardinals Get Destroyed, Thinks He Can Help
Vince Young may not be the hero Arizona deserves, but he just might be the hero it needs. The Seattle Seahawks are in the process of thoroughly humiliating the Cardinals 58-0. As of this writing, there are an ungodly two minutes and change remaining—and Seattle has the ball....

Good News, Mark Sanchez: You Still Have One Fan In The NFL. Bad News: It's Braylon Edwards.
Braylon Edwards, who is currently a useless member of the Seattle Seahwaks, used to be semi-relevant when he played for the New York Jets. As such, Edwards has strong opinions about the current state of the Jets franchise, specifically the struggles of Mark "Buttfumble" Sanchez....

At Long Last, John Olerud Claims Victory Over The Tree In His Neighbor's Yard
September brought grave news that, until just now, had occupied most of our attention, kept us awake at night, asleep during the day, and our entire lives turned upside down. John Olerud, proud owner of a beautiful piece of land with pristine views just outside Seattle, had a problem. From our origi...

Finally, Someone Built The New Sonics Arena Out Of 110 Pounds Of Butter
We should note that this is not actually the new Sodo arena, with which Seattle hopes to lure an NBA franchise; this is only a model. And not a strictly accurate one—unless I misunderstand the load-bearing properties of butter, I do not believe the inside is hollow and contains a little butter court...

What Is A Chop Block, Anyway, And Why Was Last Night's Call Against Seattle A Bad One?
Barry wrote earlier about the safety Niners coach Jim Harbaugh declined in last night's game. The safety would have made the score 15-6 rather than 13-6, and would have pleased those who wagered on the Niners (who were -7 at most books) and vexed those who wagered on the Seahawks. Barry also noted...

When Jim Harbaugh Declined That Safety, He Swung About $75 Million In Bets
Let's get this out of the way first: 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh was absolutely right to decline a penalty resulting in a safety toward the end of his team's win over the Seahawks. With a flag for a chop block, San Francisco could have accepted it, taken two points to push its lead to nine, and receive...
