In our opinion there is no NORTHWEST SPORTS team that anyone likes more than the Seattle Seahawks. Their facebook fan page has over 500,000 fans.
No other PRO sports team in the area can boast this sort of fan following.

Brief History Of Our Seahawks
It’s not easy being a Seahawks fan right 12th man? There was the early start-up franchise years (Jack Patera), some NICE Chuck Knox seasons, the Tom Flores and Ken Behring almost moved the team to LA years, the Dennis Erickson 7-9 years and then finally a nice patch of seasons under Mike Holmgren, which included a few NFC west titles, followed up by 2010′s NFC west title under Pete “hollywood” Carroll.
The Seahawks’ only Super Bowl participation came in the 2005 season when they finished 13-3 and made it to Superbowl XL in Detroit (or was it Pittsburgh?) in the 2006 Super Bowl.
Last year they became the first ever NFL team to win a division title or a playoff berth in a complete season with a record below .500 (7-9). Six days after clinching their division, they also became the first NFL team to win a playoff game with a 7-9 record, as they defeated the defending champion Saints at Qwest Field.
All in all we wouldn’t trade it for the world would we 12th man? But still a few more Super bowl appearances would be nice.
