Guess whose is better? A&M's even when the team sucks. Also, guess who pays A&M to use the phrase? Seattle is a "half baked other".

I appreciate the Seattle fan base passion, and I don't think that a few fans are representative of a bunch. However, Seattle couldn't even come up with their own fanbase nickname so I find it humorous when a fan calls out other teams "half baked attempts."
30 years, yes, the Seahawks retired the #12 jersey in 1984.

And I wasn't talking about A&M, to whom the Seahawks pay an "licensing" amount (nominal) each year, to use the name with A&M's permission, by "half baked"; I was referring to the "7th man" (Canucks) and 13th man (Sask Riders) that was brought up in Bar-Down's post.
