Hating without H8: Seattle edition



With ih8dallas back in exile this week, I thought I would do my best impersonation.  I'm assuming ih8 is simply too exhausted from continuous viewing of Twilight to be available.  Please forgive me if I'm unable to achieve true equality with the real thing.

Star-divide

This week the Redskins travel to the pacific northwest to take on the Seattle Lycans.  It is well known around the NFL that winning a road game in Seattle is a difficult thing.  This is often attributed, falsely, to two factors: 

1)  The long flight from the east coast to Seattle.

2)  Crowd Noise.

Regarding #1, this is pure malarkey.  We all know The Danny flies them everywhere in Redskins One, so they arrive rested and refreshed.  Plus, the flight to Seattle isn't much longer than the flight to Dallas, and we always kick the Cowgirls asses.  So that's debunked.

The real problem with traveling to Seattle is the weather.  Upon arriving, the dreariness and lack of sun immediately begin to sap your will to live.  The longer you stay there, the more apathetic you become.   Remember Grunge?  That started in Seattle with people who could no longer muster the strength to bother bathing or changing clothes on more than a monthly basis.  Simply going to Seattle and escaping before you kill yourself in a bought of depression is tough enough, so ordinary teams have too many problems with that to worry about winning a football game.  Luckily, Washington is no ordinary team, and regular exposure to politicians has made them immune to depression.

 

Regarding crowd noise, this is a problem, but only because the Lycans cheat by playing artificial noise over their loudspeakers.  When your home "crowd" is made up of pale skinned 13 year old girls who wear an emotionless mask all the time and their ever so friendly and loving vampire boyfriends, they just aren't going to make much noise.  No, the real problem is the disco ball that the Lycans hang above the 50 yard line.  They shine a high intensity spotlight on it, and it reflects onto all the loving vampires.  Their skins gets all sparkly and the players get distracted.  To combat this effect, all Redskins players have been issued official contacts that block out all vampire sparklyness.  The contacts are endorsed by Carlos Rogers for effectiveness. 

 

Now, on to the prediction: 

 

000000hhhhhh-   Sparkly.......................

 

 

Sorry, forgot my contacts and got distracted.   Of course, I see a blowout.  Washington 68, Seattle -6.  Sexy Rexy will unleash the Dragon for 9 touchdowns, and just for fun, they'll get 3 two point conversions and a safety.

Good work but

Its just not the same. While I did enjoy the references to iH8s love for Twilight, it distracted from the job at hand. H8ing on Seattle. The vitriol and venom just didn’t reach the level normally seen in a Hating with H8 post. Having said that, I do appreciate the attempt.

Methinks you're missing the point of this post.

But even those thousands of college grads (which are in every city in the country, btw) end up having to get on the bus at 3rd and Pike, sit next to one of the baker’s dozen of human detritus that got on at the stop near the needle exchange, witness the heated intellectual discussion between “meth man” and “crack chick” about which Starbucks has the most lax bathroom usage policies, and then watch the overly PC driver do nothing about the two of them attacking one another except to say, “be nice…this is a nice bus.”

At least I'm not a whiny, little bitch.

You know iH8 is....

sitting in front of his computer reading this, while holding his faux invitation to Edward and Bella’s wedding (had to ask my wife their names..haha), twitching because he can’t post again. He is going to need a methodone clinic by the time this ban is lifted.

At least "WE ARE" not Penn State!!!

I know all the characters

because my wife bought me the first book when it came out. That’s right, I have a hardcover first edition Twilight book. I opened it and said " Thank you. Also, you do know I"m not a thirteen year old girl, right?" She completely misunderstood what the book was about.

TrueBlood, Twilight, Blood and Chocolate….yada yada. Reading iH8’s posts are like peaking in my wife’s diary….haha!

Your high point was 68 to -6

But I nominate Jim America for wisecracker-in-chief until iH8 is back on his feet

Sheesh...tough crowd for the only guy trying here.

For the record, if I were running this show, I would definitely be aiming for an audience reaction a la

At least I'm not a whiny, little bitch.

It rains nine months of the year there

so everybody looks like prunes…all wrinkled and shriveled up. The get the crowd noise by flipping pictures of Justin Bieber and the vampire guy from Twilight up on the score boards. Vampires love the place because the sun never shines so they can be out and about most of the time. Lycans are the werewolf people. They don’t like vampires and vice versa. Nobody would wail and scream over the image of a werewolf.

Hawks fan here

Have to say, this was pretty downright funny! I laughed pretty hard at the ‘13 year old girls’ part, hahaha. Post deserves a rec.
So this ih8dallas guy has a reputation around here?

IH8 is the ultimate prognosticator.

31-17 is what I’m feeling he’s feeling. Rex Grossman scrambles 31 yards for a TD while the Seagulls D is distracted by Shanahan’s Volturi(evil vampire clan or something as per my wife) Face. It takes him half of the 2nd quarter to rumble the distance then collapsing against the goal post.

Santana bobbles a WR screen and Trent Williams ends up with it. He then has more YAC than all of our receiving corps put together with his unstoppable 94 yard rumblin, stumblin and bumblin devastation of any lightweights who try to stop him.

Oh, and yes.. Kyle calls a WR screen from the Skins 6. Playcall WINNING!
