Seriously -- there's a professional football team called the "Seahawks"?

Of course the Redskins are better. I can't believe you even have to ask that question, Flann!!
Posted by: treesta | January 06, 2013 at 07:28 AM
The word on my codey thingy was 'gentle'. Guess I better take it easy - at least until game time!
Posted by: treesta | January 06, 2013 at 07:29 AM
Flann, Seahawks would be an excellent name for a Librarian's reading group. Which I aspire to. But about the East West thing. The Washington Monument is better.

"Capitol Hill or Puget Sound?"
Would anyone chose Capitol Hill over the Puget Sound? We need to find something better to offer than the Hill. How about the Georgetown waterfront or the Potomic River?
Does Seattle have any museum that can compare with The Smithsoniam museums? Or any place to eat like Ben's Chili Bowl?

Well, good morning, Matiss. Are you ready for a good game? The 'Skins are ready to pluck some Seahawk feathers!
Posted by: treesta | January 06, 2013 at 08:35 AM
With all due respect to my Redskin sistas, Seattle's got this thang! I'm taking all bets.....or are you guys all bluster and ersatz sass?
Posted by: Sista C | January 06, 2013 at 08:40 AM
Yeah, right, Sista C. I ain't goin' for them Sno-Caps again.
I dare ya to raise the bar. Seriously, what's the bet, 'cause the Skins got this one, baby.
Posted by: Flannista | January 06, 2013 at 09:02 AM
Emily -- thanks for joining this smack sass stream.
You will indeed hear a lot of yelling today -- and a lot of crying from Matiss.
Posted by: Flannista | January 06, 2013 at 09:03 AM
Due respect? For a bunch of east coast elitist snobs? Noway says no way. You can't trash talk the west and get away with it in this venue.
The Smithsonian... bah. Ever had a cold one looking over the Sound? Ever had a real cup of coffee? And don't diss a seahawk aka osprey. Fast, powerful, majestic. I was going cheer for RGIII and the Redskins, but this pushes me over to the other side. Go Seahawks....

Washington has the National Art Gallery. What does Seattle have? An old garage for grunge bands?
Posted by: Flannista | January 06, 2013 at 09:04 AM
You so sure that you'd bet some micro-brewery beer, Flann?
Posted by: Sista C | January 06, 2013 at 09:05 AM
The word in the Code Thingy for my last comment was "Definite" as in the Skins beating the Seahawks is a definite.
Posted by: Flannista | January 06, 2013 at 09:05 AM
noway -- our comments passed in the smack sass.
The Museum of Flight trumps the National Air and Space Museum?
Surely you can do better than that.
Posted by: Flannista | January 06, 2013 at 09:07 AM
You're on, Sista C. Micro-brewery beer it is -- and the really GOOD STUFF, you know with a really weird name like Profanity Hill Pale Ale.
Posted by: Flannista | January 06, 2013 at 09:09 AM
You got it smartypants Flann.

What does Seattle have to beat this - the infamous Exorcist steps for horror film fans:

treesta -- Seattle has the horror of losing today's Wildcard game.
Posted by: Flannista | January 06, 2013 at 09:24 AM
If it's unclear, I'm rooting for the Seahawks. I just think DC has better museums & the Library of Congress! (There's no place that can top the LoC. Seriously people, don't even try.)
Just, what are the odds in Vegas?
Posted by: Matissta | January 06, 2013 at 09:24 AM
You're on, Sista C.
And make that "Redskinspants", please.
Posted by: Flannista | January 06, 2013 at 09:25 AM
The word in my Code Thingy was "solidity" as in the quality of the Redskins compared to the Seahawks.
Posted by: Flannista | January 06, 2013 at 09:26 AM
It's clear that you are rooting for the Seahawks, my poor and uninformed Matiss. You're right about the LoC or as we intelligent folks say, the Library of Congress. Hey -- if you can't spell it out, don't write it or say it.
Here's something you need to learn to spell:
L-O-S-E-R
Posted by: Flannista | January 06, 2013 at 09:30 AM
Matiss, how can we root for the same team? Nothing to bet on. Never been to Ben's Chili Bowl... have however been to the 5 Point Cafe.. not to be missed. Or dissed.
Posted by: nowayasista | January 06, 2013 at 09:31 AM
The tagline for The 5 Point Cafe is this, noway:
"Alcoholics serving alcoholics since 1929."
The breakfast menu offers "5 Point Curry Tofu Scramble".
Guess only an alcoholic could appreciate that.
Posted by: Flannista | January 06, 2013 at 09:36 AM
Oh, I'll get you your obscure brew if you win, Flannista. Something to compare to the infamous box of SnoCaps. I've heard that the Trappist Monks of Louisiana make a delightful beverage from aged crick water and night-toad sweat.
You n treesta seem to be outnumbered today, chickadee. Rookies.
