ashburnskinsfan Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 Good size crowd there today, perhaps 100, for the Seattle sendoff, as well as four TV news crews. Joe Gibbs came out before the buses and signed autographs for everyone. Some photos to follow. My son was with me and thought the whole experience was awesome. I had fun too. :jump: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ashburnskinsfan Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 And another five ... Gibbs was awesome, shaking hands, signing autographs. Last pic is my son with a signed ball. He said "The greatest coach in the history of the NFL shook my hand and signed my ball". Very wise for a young one.:applause: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Art Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 Why welcome home a bunch of losers? Because we appreciate the hard work and effort of our favorite team. We understand fans of the Seahawks would abandon them the moment it turns bad on them. In fact, we're counting on it. We expect you to be very loud on Saturday, only to get very quiet and leave early so discouraged with your team, while our team will be playing knowing win or lose, their fans care and will love them next year. So, take a day off to consider this. You seem to need the help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CalSkins81 Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 Im envious of everyone that made it out to the send off. I wish I could be there for the welcoming home even more. Win or loose im sure there will be a lot of fans there showing their support. I would love to ben a part of that but cant make it out of the state this weekend. Alas I will be cheering on the team from SoCal in from of the TV. Give they guys a SHOUT OUT FOR ME!!!! HTTR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
staffva Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 I wish I could of been there today and on Sunday morning. Work got in the way today and I will still be in Seattle on Sunday. Glad you all showed up to send the team off. I don't expect to see as many skin fans in Seattle as there was at FEDEX South (Tampa) last weekd. Tickets were a lot harder to get for this game, but I got them. Give them a hell of welcome back on Sunday morning, win or lose and I believe they will win this game. It has been a great ride that I am not ready to get off yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkinsNatsFan Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 Some great footage on Channel 9 News. Extremeskins banner, lots of extremers behind it, interviews with extremers, and Gibbs the dog of course! They even got a close up of my son and I cheering. Maybe they'll show some of it again at 11.

HSF Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 What a great time! As the players came in, several had video cameras taping us fans taping them. I saw Mark Burnell slowly pass by while chatting with Channel 7. He was all smiles as he drove by with Ramsey. I got footage of Joe Gibbs making his way to the crowd to say thank you. His face was priceless when he saw Gibbs the Hound. He said "That's my buddy" and took time to pet Gibbs! It was great to meet everyone. Hope to see you all there this weekend to welcome them home.

ashburnskinsfan Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 One other neat thing about today's sendoff was the reaction from the players, tooting their car horns and big smiles as they arrived. My son was wearing his Moss #89 shirt and as the buses were leaving, the lead bus stopped with Santana at the window right next to us. He acknowleged my son with a grin. :point2sky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
