Attainable Goals

I love seeing things that I've never before.  Enough occurrences and I get to see it all.  Never before has an NFL team with a losing record advanced to the playoffs.  Never before your 2010 Seattle Seahawks.  Behind a monster defense effort, gutsy play-calling and a well-managed game by backup QB Charlie Whitehurst, Seattle stole the NFC West from the Rams 16-6.  Coming into the game averaging 85 yards rushing, the 7-9 'Hawks racked up a buck-44 and will host the 11-5 New Orleans Saints at Quest Field next weekend.  If you can stand there with a straight face and tell me that Seattle has more talent than the Browns, then you are either a liar or an idiot.  It gives me hope.  Especially in the face of 41-9.  Congrats to Pete Carroll et al.  I'll be pulling for Cinderella.
