The Seattle Seahawks are based in Seattle, Washington, and are are members of the West Division of the NFC. The Seahawks joined the NFL in 1976 as an expansion team along with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Seahawks are owned by Paul Allen, co-founder of Microsoft, and are currently coached by Pete Carroll. Since 2002 the Seahawks have played their home games at CenturyLink Field near downtown Seattle after previously playing home games in the Kingdome (1976–1999) and Husky Stadium (1994, 2000-2001).
The Seahawks are the only NFL franchise located in the Pacific Northwest region of North America and therefore maintain a legion of fans in the neighboring states of Oregon, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming and Alaska, as well as thousands of fans in the Canadian provinces of British Columbia and Alberta. Seahawks fans are known collectively as the "12th Man" and have set numerous international stadium sound records.
The Seahawks have won eight division titles and appeared in Super Bowl XL after the 2005 season. They will again appear in Super Bowl XLVIII. Seattle is the only team to have played in both the AFC and NFC Championship Games, having relocated from the AFC to the NFC during league realignment prior to the 2002 season.
NFC Championships - 2005, 2013
AFC West Championships - 1988, 1999

Extending a contract to a cancer
I have been a Seahawks fan from day number one. I've supported your team through good times and bad.
I am also a Vietnam Veteran and am disappointed in your interest in Colin K.
Would you really chance losing so many fans?
Or don't you care about all the veterans who've lost their lives fighting this country's enemies to keep you safe?
Hire this guy and you lose me for life.
Politics
The Seahawks need to focus on playing football as every other NFL team should and remove themselves from politics. I do not disagree with the subject, I do disagree with the platform. NFL football is an escape from every day stresses for so many. We (Your fans) do not want to spend $150 - $1,200 for a ticket and be reminded of all the political divide and garbage. If these players really want to make a difference, then put your money in place of your mouth. The players make millions to play a game. They should invest in the inner cities and make their presence known. Find a platform that makes a difference, not one that disrespects the people that have fought for our freedom and the country that has given all these players the opportunity to make millions from a game. I for one am going to Boycott the rest of this season.
