Hi everyone, today I will be posting for the first time about something non-school related. My topic today will be football, and why I’m interested in it. I first got interested in football in 2017, while watching my now favourite team the Seattle Seahawks. My favourite player is easily Russell Wilson. They are my favourite team because they are the closest team to where I live, and second, they are very fun to watch.
The main things that define football are the crucial moments that usaually happen in the playoffs. I will be listing my personal top three below:
1. Seahawks dominate in Super bowl 48 vs Broncos, win their 1st super bowl.
Here’s a link to the highlights: Super Bowl 48
I chose this because this event is so important, I mean it was our first Super Bowl! Not many thought they would win, yet they won 43 to 8!
2. Seahawks crazy comeback in NFC championship vs Packers.
This event is so important because of how big of a win it was. I mean we came back down from a game where our QB threw 4 interceptions! Also we beat the Packers MVP QB in a game where they had the momentum 95% of the time.
Yet this is what happened in the Super Bowl the same year against the Patriots……
We had the ball at the one yard line down 4 with 3o seconds left. Instead of doing the obvious; running the ball, we called for a surprise pass play. Which, (on a good play) Patriots Cornerback Malcom Butler, intercepted. This moment will forever live in the memories of every NFL fan, everyone will forever wonder what would’ve happened If they had simply ran the ball?
