- Marcus Allen and the Raiders take on Curt Warner and the Seahawks in the AFC Title Game. Seattle swept the Raiders during the year, but this game would turn out to be a different story.

This game will always be special to me. My mom and dad were getting ready to fly out of the country for a wedding the next day. I was 7 and feeling down, so my dad took me to the store (Gemco) and let me pick out a toy. I remember coming home all excited to set up my hot wheels race track and this game was on tv. I ended up watching the game instead. Just one of those random memories that I have spending time with my dad.
Miami 808 ......now isn’t that heart warming
Love these memories, were the same age. And was a fan back then.
Gemco was awesome!
Wow I was about your age at that same time. I have similar memories. For those thinking what are hot wheels and couldn't you just DVR the game, I feel bad for you.
Incredible memory. As Americana as it gets.
Dick Enberg and Merlin Olsen, one of the criminally underrated broadcasting duos in NFL history.
Dick Enberg went to the same college I did, Central Michigan (not all that famous)
When Bill Walsh retired, NBC plugged him in with Dick Enberg and exiled Olsen to regional games, breaking up a great broadcast duo.
@@exchequerguy4037 That's like when Madden went to MNF and Summerall was doing regional games. I will give them this. Bill was a phenomenal analyst. But you could tell he wasn't exactly comfortable in the role. He definitely wanted to be out there leading a team.
@@exchequerguy4037 Dick Enberg is another Central Michigan alum, we're all proud of him
My thoughts exactly. Outside of John Madden & Pat Summerall, Enberg & Olson were my all-time favorite broadcasting duo. Growing up in the 1980's and '90's I remember watching a lot of great/classic games with those guys at the helm. 🙂
Tom Flores and Lester Hayes need to be in the Hall of Fame. It's a no brainer.
CLIFF BRANCH should have been inducted years ago! He held EVERY post season receiving record when he retired, until Jerry Rice broke them. There's no way Harold Carmichael was a better pass catcher!
Miami 808 Don't forget Cliff Branch! Way before Michael Irvin, Randy Moss, and Terrell Owens!!!!!
@@darryljackson7600 Cliff Branch held EVERY postseason receiving record when he retired, Jerry Rice broke all of Cliff's records and I say it every year after they announce the pro football HOF finalists, where's Cliff Branch? Harold Carmichael caught more passes, but Branch had a superior average yards per catch AND 3 Super Bowl rings! Branch should have been inducted with Snake Stabler.
Cliff Branch jack Tatum Tom Flores
Lester Hayes and mike Haynes wow
As a Seahawks fan, thank you for this Raider fan. Been looking all over for this game. Although I watched it live, It's still good to go back.
My Dad had season tickets that year and took me to the previous weeks playoff game against Pittsburgh. This game he took my Mom. What an awesome team, so glad to get the chance to see them!
I love watching these Raider games. So many great memories come flooding back. The 1983 Raiders were one of the greatest teams of all time!
That was THE best Raider team on balance, Hendricks , Millen, Alzado, Hayes, Long, Haynes, not a weak link in that chain at all. Not to mention Branch, Plunkett, Christensen and Allen, the perfect blend of young talent, and experience.
Top 10 all time team
@A E at the time of this game, they were the winningest team in ALL professional sports
They had so many great players!
Love all these classic Raiders Games! Raiders had great players in 1983.
Todd Christensen should be in the Hall of Fame. His career stats compare favorably to fellow Pro Bowler Ozzie Newsome, especially given that Todd played FB for several years. I would say Todd had a lot more YAC, and was just as good a blocker. Todd was intelligent, and a Mormon who tried to fit in with the Raiders. A winner.
This was my very first Raider game,my oldest brother had 2 tickets and he took me. I will never forget this game. Best sport event I ever been to.RNFL
Was it loud? 😊
@@TheGlass50 it was LOUD bro, I will not forget, I really became part of the nation that day
@@jeffreyrencher9157 I was 16 at the time. I’ve been a Raider fan since ‘75. The was a magical time of my life. I remember watching that game and being so nervous because the Seahawks had beaten them twice that year. I can’t imagine being there live at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum in 1984 and watching that game. I’m so glad you were there to witness it in person. Thank you so much for responding. That was and still is the largest crowd to ever see a Raiders game and you were there.
I was 15 and a diehard raiders fan my cousin was a Seattle fan and I had to listen to him running his trap all season long and he was so confident they were gonna win it was sweet poetic justice when the raiders beat them that day I'll never forget it. Thanks for these great memories. we always watched these games as a family. Wow, great days.
Damn the Raiders defense was loaded with talent
Rod Martin was so underrated. Maybe the best player on this defense.
unlike today
@@bcmcboot no shit I just thought the same thing
Yeah and they didn't drop like flys to injuries like they do now and the game was more violent back then...I personally don't believe today's injuries are all real injuries I think these guys get paid to act injured to balance games out because of gambling becoming legal it's all perception now...have you not noticed how every year the raiders defense never plays intact by mid season half the team is already injured and because of that it's the reason why the raiders don't win because they don't have the QB who can overcome the injuries so the raiders go through the same cycle it's a pattern they use as their excuse every year and so they stay at 6 to 7 wins a year...it will happen again this year just watch you will see what I mean and organization knows this but won't do nothing to change it I guess the organization is getting paid to be mahomes sidekick like the NFL is saying please don't ruin our golden boy from bringing the NFL money we need our super stars to constantly shine.
@@bcmcbootas of right now... how about that Raiders defence? Haha joking. All fun
I was there. Been a Raiders fan forever, it was a helluva year. Marcus Allen was trying to make it with my girlfriend, she worked at Roy’s Mill on Pier avenue, in HermosaBeach,he came in for breakfast all the time, so she got me his autograph, and 4 tickets to Monday night game against Miami Dolphins, they beat Washington in the Super Bowl, and after the Seahawks beat down, I was on the goal posts on the front page of the LA Times the next day!!!!!! That’s right, wearing my favorite flannel, because it was cool and misty that day. WHAT A FANTASTIC FOOTBALL YEAR!!!!
That BS interference on Lester Hayes’ interception on the first drive was an absolute criminal call. Lester in his prime was possibly the best cover Cornerback of all time.
lester is my favorite cb,but i think mike haynes was better. When hayes and haynes were the corners for the raiders,teams threw at lester,not michael
@@dkitty8124 Neither was an option. Watch the other two playoff games this year. Lester dared you to pass at him.
@@Rex-gu1bu He's right though. Teams took their chances against Lester with Haynes on the other side of the field.
Right, the only, "bump" as Olsen said, came from the Seahwak.
Lester had perfect position basically making him the receiver, the Seahawk receiver was shoving on him while Hayes was simply holding his position.
I was at this game thanks to the salesian boys club forever grateful to them for all they did for us kids in east LA
I miss AFC games on NBC.
The early 80's Raiders were overpowering.With a defense that rushed the passer well and Mike Haynes and Lester Hayes on corners were hard to sustain drives against and Ray Guy constantly pinning opponents deep made it all the harder
The dline
True, though I have to wonder, would those physical coverage techniques be legal under today's rules where breathing too hard on a receiver will get you a DPI.
This Raiders team was loaded and beat the hell out of my Redskins in Super Bowl XVIII 38-9
You are a Lakers fan?
Same here, Brother Dee. HTTR! Super Bowl XVIII is moment I would rather forget. But we made it out by the skin of our teeth in the regular season matchup with those same Raiders. Then Super Bowl 18 had to happen. With the exception of that game, that was one of the Redskins greatest seasons ever. Oh well, ha ha
That was a good skins team too. I'm a Raiders fan but wasnt that skins team 14-2?
The Raiders blew out a pretty good Redskins too.
@@kyledamron They were 14-2 but when they played earlier Haynes wasn't there and branch got hurt during his 99td run
One of the greatest D lines and secondaries of all time!
I can't watch old Raiders games.. I get so emotional because I love everything about the Raiders. Also it just reminds me of great times in my life and in America...
Raiders are still the most popular football team in LA. I grew up going to Raiders games at the coliseum. I can't believe they moved to Vegas!
Tom Flores belongs in the HOF
every favorite player or coach of my childhood team deserves to be in the Hall of Fame.com
well ask and you shall receive
Pete Rozelle despised Al Davis more than anyone. Several notable Raiders are not in the HOF because of it. Flores Branch and Hayes are notable omissions
@@sukhastings4200 the commissioner does elect who goes into the HOF
6:02 Lester Hayes “bump” was a legit interception.
@Thegreatokie You weren't alone, after his 13 regular season INT's in 1980, The Judge would get flagged for PI or IC Illegal Contact if he so much as breathed on an opposing player.
Fr that “bump” wouldve been a no call even in today’s game😂
this is to the LAS VEGAS RAIDERS. this is how you play football. aggressive, dominant. take no prisoners. RAIDERS FOOTBALL. the way it was. thank you oakland raiders of the late 60s and all thru the 70s. la raiders of the 80s. THANK YOU.
They were dirty. Period. Got away with more than any other team. their Dbs held-no call. Another team does the same to Raiders? -Yellow Hankie
@@jackjax532 It's you that's in denial. Raiders were always involved in dead ball altercations cause of how dirty they were. Alzado and Long were just bullies that were on roids. The karma caught up to that franchise
Raiders got screwed by the refs in big games more than any other team. 69 AFL championship Otis Taylor stepped out of bounds, 1972 Immaculate Deception 1974 AFC Championship big offensive tripping call, 1977 Lytle fumble....
That Raiders team would rack up 1 million dollars in fines every game. Most would be suspended before the season was over. This was back when you could play real football.
@@gambloduck6633
You're both right and wrong.
The Bears played the same way, but because their stars, especially their DBs were Caucasian (Fencik, Plank Fiske etc.) the media euphemised "dirty" with "tough"
Marcus Allen wasn't given enough credit for his sheer guts and unselfishness; he was happy to block and run interference without complaint until Al Davis pushed him too far.
Al Davis was a piece of shit
Al did Marcus wrong
@@goatmouthjones90 He certainly did; Al 'cut of his nose to spite his own face'. I'm quite sure that if Marcus had stayed, adding Jerry Rice and Gannon along with Tim Brown, we'd have been VERY dangerous in the late 1990's
My favorite all-time player and why there's a "32" in my screen name.
In 1983, Marcus Allen had more of an impact in the post season than the regular season. Post season matters more.
Similar to Riggins the year before. He only averaged like 3.1 ypc before the playoffs and turned it on. Marcus averaged 3.8 ypc in his sophomore season and then flipped the switch in the playoffs. Three incredible games.
Yes, and when Al Davis benched him, it was the end of the Raider Dynasty.
Not only that Chris, but the Raiders as a collective team! In that era, they always seemed to raise their game to another level during the playoffs! And '83 was no different! When completely healthy, the Raiders could beat anyone anytime anywhere! Still to this day blows me away that of the 20 greatest SB champions ranked by the America's Game series, this Raiders squad was rated the lowest of those 20! That ranking is a travesty! The way that Raiders team controlled both sides of the line of scrimmage at the end of that season, to me, their '83 squad maybe one of the 10 best one-season teams in NFL history! That team doesn't get the credit they fully deserve and for that matter neither does Marcus Allen! The fact that he was only ranked #85 of the 100 Greatest Players Ever on NFL Network shows how little those who voted value opinion! Allen hands down was not only the best inside-the-20 RB of all-time, he should have at least been rated in the Top 40 overall! #85 is just asinine!
And the acquisition of Mike Haynes was just plain ridiculous! He is one of the five best DB's to ever play the game, not just the corner position! The five best defensive backfield men in my opinion - and they were MEN - Ronnie Lott, Mike Haynes, Deion Sanders, Mel Blount and Darrell Green! Like Howie Long said in the '83 Raiders America's Game documentary, and he put it best - "Mike Haynes was so athletically gifted, it was boring"!
The Raiders d-line was so good, three non starters in Greg Townsend, Bill Pickel, and Archie Reese combined for 20.5 sacks! Amazing depth. Then you factor in Hendricks, Martin, and Millen...and THEN Hayes, Haynes, and McElroy in the secondary, it's a wonder how anyone scored on them.
..the L.A Raiders had the better defense than the Oakland Raiders...
They also had a great running game in Marcus Allen. Defense and a strong running game -a pretty successful combination.
They need to send a note of thanks to the Browns for giving them Alzado. Alzado played like a man possessed as a Raider
" THAT'S A DAMM SHAME ! the announcer said in this game , "CLIFF BRANCH had the most playoffs yardage in NFL playoff history to that point, wow ! It took way too long , TO INDUCT " CLIFF BRANCH into the " HALL OF FAME. 🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️
Yep, Tatum, Hayes, Christenson, Wiz should also be in....Raider haters.
The Might Oakland Raiders and their incipient Will to Victory! Man, they used to piss teams off! I will never forget the AFC Championship of 1977 when the half-assed Broncos ripped the Raiders off at the goal line on an obvious turn-over preventing perhaps the greatest Super Bowl showdown in NFL history: the Cowboys vs. the Raiders!
I just love Lester Hayes Facemask
Here comes the TRUTH,... I just love RAIDER , 🏈 FOOTBALL 🏈
This was truly an all-time classic NFL Championship Playoff Game one of the best ever one of the greatest ever it was the Raiders at there very best against a really good Seahawks Team they fallowed up this great win by crushing the Washington Redskins in the Super Bowl!!!
Este equipo Los Ángeles Raiders 1983 rendía culto a su lema "Comprometidos con la Exelencia" valiosos todos y cada uno de sus jugadores, felicidades
My nostalgia meter just blew up!
Damn! This defense is ruthless! We need this kine of defense in 2021 man !
Lester Hayes was as good as there ever was! It’s a crime he is not in the hall of fame!
Love it...this is one of those games that I never had a nice version of....thanks! Got 2,000+ games, most on DVD....let me know what you want.....will send you some lists if you want

Lester Hayes belongs in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
Love it! The sea chickens beat the Raiders both times in the regular season but the Raiders beat them when it mattered. Saved this to my phone
Why did the Raiders have home field then, if they got beat twice by the Seahawks and same record?
@@gambloduck6633
That's a good question. But, they said the sea chickens beat them both times that season. And, I remember being up in Seattle and a guy saying the same thing
@@gambloduck6633 the Raiders won their division - Seattle didn't.
@@gambloduck6633 It's called Seeding, division Champions get home field against Wild Card teams. Better OVERALL record12-4 versus 9-7, there's no way in hell the NFL will let a 9-7 team will host a 12-4 team in a Conference Championship game.
@@davidcobb2693 They had the SAME record. Get your facts in order. Must have been conference record, or division record prevailing tie breaker over head to head. If that game was in Seattle, no way they get so many no calls against Hayes and Mike Haynes when they grabbed receivers. Some questionable calls against Seahawks. Small markets didn't get any calls those days.
On the way to Tampa baby ( Flores after the game)
Appreciate this post! I never saw this game!I was stationed in Beirut 19 yr old Army Private. Got to listen to the Superbowl on Armed Forces Radio !
McElroy, R.Martin, Lester Hayes...bad asses...😎🏈🏆....this new gen Raiders should learn from these guys, especially how to tackle.
Loved Enberg and Olsen
Being a lifelong Bronco fan this Raider defense was killer. They put Elway out of the game with a concussion when they played in Denver that season.
This game was played on January 8, 1984 at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. Later in 1984, the same stadium would host the 1984 Summer Olympics.
This was the Raiders most dominant and talented team. If they had stuck with Plunkett a couple more years and Davis hadn’t blackballed Allen, the Raiders could have won another Super Bowl. The Raiders weren’t lacking talent in the 80’s.
This Raider defense was so stacked.
I remember these games like yesterday
Mr. Stickem Lester Hayes needs to be in the hall of fame as the hole team
Not the whole team?
being a Raiders fans through this era, I had mad respect for Krieg dude used to get pounded by the Raiders, grew up in Oregon and used to go to Seattle every year to watch them play the Raiders miss that rivalry,
I loved those old Seahawk uniforms!! Wish they would wear them again
I was at this game. We had seats in the stands at one end zone. I was one of those cretins running around on the field after the game. The crowd (not me) knocked over the goal posts, as you can see at the very end. I just pulled up a handful of the grass in the end zone that was painted silver.
What a fun game to see live. I was hoarse for a week from screaming/cheering so loudly.
My dad and three cousins and I drove down to cheer on our Seahawks. As a young teen that was an eye opening experience seeing the fans after the game. We were up high at the opposite end of the field from where the goalpost was knocked down. We saw the officer get beaned on the head by a beer bottle someone threw down and get choppered out of there.
@@VMac822 Don't ya just love us Raiders fans? lol
Not a fan any more. It was tough to root for them the last few years that Al owned them, it's totally impossible now that his nitwit kid is the owner.
I forgot how stacked that defense was.
The Raiders have met each current & former division opponent in AFL Championship [KC 69'] AFC Championship [Den 77' SD 81' Seattle 83'] or SB[ TB]
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers were a former AFC WEST member [1976] they've met in the Super Bowl obviously.
SD was the 80 season
That's right Mr. Marcus Allen one of the best Ruinning back that ever played ▶️ 👏 🙌 👌
Those old Raiders they were scary good ... Just scary period
We were youg, my father was still there, Raiders were winning, fantastic times!!
I was there as a kid. A lot of us Rush the field we pulled one goal post down. As they rushed towards the second goal post a number of cops with long billy clubs came out of the tunnel and stopped the crowd. What a crazy day.
Thank you for posting this!
I was 17 , jumped on Mike Haynes back for about 20 yards after the game, on the field was crazy, best game I ever went to! Still have My ticket!
I was there. Drove down from Burlington WA to watch my Raiders get revenge for the 2 losses to Seattle earlier that season. This game was over before it started. The Seahawks were intimidated, scared, and way overmatched. The Raiders came out ready to beat some serious ass & they were not afraid to get a few personal fouls along the way. Lol
My Seahawks never had a chance! I was heart broken after this game.
Curt Warner was the leading rusher in 83 and this Raider D held him to 11 carries and 26 yards. What a team.
And 2 weeks later,they gave the diesel ( John riggins ) flat tires.
The '83 Raider's 3 postseason margin of victory: 106 to 19. (Steelers 38-10, Seahawks 30-14, Redskins 38-9.
i saw this game live . when you watch a game like this it lets everyone know why we are raider fans . the toughness and the physical nature of this team is the reason i became a raider fan .we had a good mix of youth and vets on that team that's how you become champions. and Al davis was all about toughness and never backing down that's the raider way and no other team was ever able to play this style of football.
Lester the Molester, Marcus Allen, Jim Plunkett...man, those were the days!!
Once the Raiders acquired Mike Haynes at cornerback from The Patriots, they became unstoppable as a team.
As a 50 year raider's fan I wish they were still in Oakland, but at the same time I an honored for them to play in a great city like LA
This place host both the raiders and 2018 rams playoff run this old stadium has history to it
The Raiders had the complete team that good offense & defense and of course Marcus Allen
Has any RB in NFL history ever had three games in the postseason like Marcus Allen had in January of 1984?? 121- yards /2TD against Pittsburgh,154Rush/62 Recand 1TD - Seattle and 191 and 2 TD in Super Bowl against Washington. Incredible performance!!!!!!! Sadly the Raiders haven’t won a Super Bowl in 40 years. Just heard Dave Kreig on the Mark Ryan Radio Program 12-27-2023 recounting the win over Miami on the road one week earlier. Didn’t hear him say he was pulled in the Raider game??
still have a lapel pin bought at the game. To watch both Lester Hayes And Mike Haines was special!
The greatest Raiders team and greatest Raiders defense . Howie was a beast
The best Raiders 🏈all time
I absolutely love this game.
One of the first one I watched (albeit via highlights in UK)
LA RAIDERS FOREVER!
I forgot how good the raiders d was that year.Ted was an old school beast.should show this game to every rookie that walks in the building.
I was in attendance with my mom, brother and aunt… along with 92k others. Great day!!. One of the most memorable parts of the day occurred in the aftermath. As the clock hit zero, NOBODY had left the game (out of character for LA crowds back then). What ensued was entertaining chaos involving LAPD in riot gear and on horseback trying to keep the crowd from tearing down the goalposts. Tackles made after the game by Event Staff rivaled that which occurred during it. Lol
What a Super Bowl it should have been 49ers vs. Raiders!
Seattle Seahawks - The only team to have played in both an AFC and NFC championship game.
It was announced yesterday at the NFL HONORS that Tom Flores is going into the HOF as a coach!!! It's about time!! Also going into the HOF, Charles Woodson!!! We now need Cliff Branch and Lester Hayes in the Hall Of Fame ASAP!!!
Rest in peace ✌️😊guys. Life is extremely short #!!💯😊☝️👌☝️!!!😊
'83 Raiders all around were the best team in NFL history, that's right.
Hard to believe, Raiders haven't won a championship since that year..
Lester was lights out in big games. It's a crime he's not in the HOF. And Cliff Branch, even more criminal.
Kory Malone probably because of the stick em he had on him before they outlaw it
@@rodjulius2745 Stick 'em was legal and lots of players used it - including Biletknikof who's in the hall. Of course, Hayes is black.
Kory Malone very true
People forget about all time great defenses, this Raider team in 1983 had two of the best cornerbacks in the league, a ferocious defensive line, they can stop the run, great Lbs, they didn't have any weaknesses. It's one of the best defensive teams I have seen, they destroyed teams in that playoff run
I was so bummed from the earlier game where the 49ers got ripped off by HORRIBLE officiating in Washington. I knew the Raiders would smoke the Redskins in SB 18 and they did. This Raider team was awesome.
Who the Redskins play calling in super bowl 18 was the worst I've ever seen in sports
I’ve never seen a cornerback as big as Lester, the guy was huge and how in the world was that passing interference at 5:56. This is textbook defense for a cornerback.
Beautiful D!!
I remember how important Plunkett was...anytime back up Mark Wilson had 2 come inn...was like a whole other team! Lester was the man...Kenny King was underrated ...he was big in big games! the 80s Raiders were just really good!...Marcus was so slippery when he ran...it looked effortless...so much talent!..now here we r n 2022 winning another one finally !
Plesae don't mention the modern teams when referencing the ole Raiders.
Thanks for uploading
As a raider fan I say Jim zorn should had got the start
I agree
Zorn had a chance to keep his job but he had a 64 qb rating that year and a 4-4 record
Kreig had a 95 rating and rant the Ground Chuck offense better.
Jim zorn went to gahr high school. Socal dude
Merlin was fresh from Little House on The Prairie.
and Father Murphy
I watched this game in the rec room, B-4-2, SatCom school on Fort Gordon, GA. I remember thinking to myself that Dave Krieg ain't no Jim Zorn. Also the raiders OL didn't get away with holding, they got away with tackling. Still....Raiders won this game outright and fairly. Flores Hayes and Plunkett should all be in the HOF.
My only complaint..... I wanted to see the halftime show!!! LOL. I could watch these old games all day long. This early 80's Raiders team was legendary
Ooh bring back those Seahawk unis💯
I was at this game...the last time both goal posts came down in an NFL game. 1 came down in Buffalo in 1990
Such great great memories. Wow i love it
more than 5 HOFers on that team...love it..
If the Seahawks had won this game, they'd be the ONLY team in NFL history to represent BOTH the AFC and NFC in the Super Bowl
Well the Seahawks are still the ONLY NFL team to play in both an AFC and NFC Championship game
The Colts represented the NFL and the Jets the AFL in SuperBowl3 ?...the Colts represented the AFC and the Cowboys the NFC in SuperBowl5.
Bro the Seahawks were NOT gonna win this game!
@@barrywoods5262 Well, the Browns played in the NFL Championship twice in the 1960s after the SB era started and then played in a couple of AFC Championships in the 1980s, so I don't think the Seahawk thing is a big deal.
The Seattle Seahawks are the only franchise in the NFL to play in the AFC Championship (1983-84) & The NFC championship (2005-06) (2013-14 & 2014-15).
Seahawks got to conference championship family in 8 years , took Saints 29 years
It took the Ravens only 4 years to win a Super Bowl and the Carolina Panthers got to the conference championship in their second year
@@thefrase7884 The Ravens already had a complete team when they moved from Cleveland, and it took 5 years. Carolina benefited from new expansion team rules that Seattle and New Orleans didn't have.
Chuck Know may've been the best coach never to have made the Super Bowl.
yeah, he was a great coach, but his over commitment to the run game made his teams one dimensional...his Rams teams of the 1970's were legit contenders every season but his offense was too predictable when facing playoff defenses and he never had a marquee QB...
Seahawks are the only team in NFL history to play in both the AFC and NFC championship games.
Of the 3 Super Bowl Winning raider teams, this one that went to Super Bowl 18 was the best I think by a slim margin over the the Super Bowl 11 and 15 winning teams
Al Davis was the man.
I'm a Seahawks fan and was in 7th grade when this was played. I made a bet with a friend for $2 for the Seahawks to win. If any Seahawks player reads this you owe me $2. Not that I hold grudges.
