That's Great News!

My mum’s Fave player on the team!

Live work and breathe like an optimist.

Me too.

He’s the kind of athlete that just never seemed to be “ours” in the past. I also enjoy his tweets.

Be sure to mention Hazbro's sig.

It’s way better than Ed Reed or Neon Sanders line about covering 1/3 the planet.

Or don’t. I just like talking about my imaginary self in the third person.

Also ask him if he plans on doing his "doin' donuts" celebration again, preferably in a game
Safety Earl Thomas again flashed his nose for the ball, breaking on a ball and driving past receiver Ricardo Lockette to pick off a pass from Tarvaris Jackson. Thomas was running downfield with the ball, but then ran in a tight circle, looking like the football equivalent of a sports car performing a donut. Thomas even made a screeching sound. It’s true. Plenty of people heard it, and laughed.

If you are taking requests...

Could you ask him if he reads this site regularly? And/or does anyone on the team? I’ve always been curious about that.

Hmmm...

I’ll see what I can do.

I've got ridiculous upside.

I've tweeted FieldGulls links to a few of the guys and seen them retweet them

Brock also retweeted one of my shitty photoshops before the Saints game last season that someone on here tweeted to him. So I’m sure there’s some awareness. In my experience dealing with pros they usually aren’t too eager to read too much analysis or opinion stuff in their free time. They have enough coaching and film to keep straight in their heads as it is.

Sick!

I’ll be keeping my eyes peeled for this.

That is sweet

What wonderful set of circumstances brought this happy event about?

Dad, use the chloroform!

Oh right!….I’ll give you this bottle of chloroform if you take us to the Who…!

Awesome, favorite player.

If you're a fan of basketball, watch a movie called Sonicsgate. It's free, just google it.

With Earl's speed

I expect the interview to get here tomorrow (long before the QB expects him to)

Jacson

I met him before and have his signed Jersey. He’s a great youg man – you are in for a treat. FWIW, his favorite pizza topping is hamburger.

I hope you enjoy the interview, very cool opportunity for the site and yourself!

by GnarlyHawk on Dec 6, 2011 6:56 PM PST reply actions  

WTF?

That I can’t get behind. Hamburger?!?

Tell him I love him and can't live without him

Will he sign my chest if I promise to never wash it off?

Watching the Seahawks is like peeing on yourself, everyone can see it, but only you get the warm feeling it brings

Requests:

1. Ask him why he thinks he hasn’t had the interceptions this year. We were told last year that he really felt on the edge of breaking out and getting a ton of picks but just wasn’t there yet. What has changed?
2. What’s it like to be working with Kam? How do they feel about being rated the number one (Kam) and number 4 (ET) rated safeties in the league.
3. What does he think of the revamped linebacking corps? How is it different now than it was having Lofa and Curry out there.
4. Does the team feel different this year than last year? How so?
5. Does Pete Carroll smiling make you smile as much as it makes me smile?

Eternally looking forward to someone making a Seahawks song based off of Lil' Jon's "Shots" song named "Hawks!"

O/T- Met Kam Chancellor tonight, wow...

Dude is a complete giant! I seriously felt like I was standing next to a super hero or something.
Saw T-Jack and Sidney Rice there too. Told Sidney to get better for next year.
I love the Seahawks!

Autograph signing at the Pro Shop in Seattle

Good turnout of fans I thought. My first one though. Cool meeting one of my favorite Seahawks.

Huge score. Well done.

I know he is young, but did he ever have a chance to play with Vince Young? If so I would like to know if he was talking smack to him in the game and what he was saying. Not too important but I’m always curious when college teammates get to go against eachother full speed.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Wow, this is awesome news. Can you cut a little bit of his hair and send it to me? I can PM you my address.

Ask him if he believes

He gets his speed and power from his hair.
2. Ask if the crowd noise at home messes with his playcalling or if he has worked out a different system for audibles.

You da man "Tarvaris Jacson"

By the way, you are now Tarvaris Jacson. When I say it outloud people will say “what?” and I’ll say “No, I’m saying it without the K.” and then they’ll be like “Oh. Funny.” Gets a laugh about 20% of the time.

Apparently there was a Belgian pop band called "Mitsoobishi Jacson."

Not that I discovered that by Google-searching myself…

I'm always curious when young athletes from the south or texas or some place move up here

I’d be interested to know if he enjoys life in Seattle. It’s probably been a huge change for him

great player, looking forward to reading it
