In regards to Sherman -

In almost every list, pride (Latin, superbia), or hubris (Greek), is considered the original and most serious of the seven deadly sins, and the source of the others. It is identified as believing that one is essentially better than others, failing to acknowledge the accomplishments of others, and excessive admiration of the personal self (especially holding self out of proper position toward God). Dante's definition was "love of self perverted to hatred and contempt for one's neighbour". In Jacob Bidermann's medieval miracle play, Cenodoxus, pride is the deadliest of all the sins and leads directly to the damnation of the titulary famed Parisian doctor. In perhaps the best-known example, the story of Lucifer, pride (his desire to compete with God) was what caused his fall from Heaven, and his resultant transformation into Satan. In Dante's Divine Comedy, the penitents are burdened with stone slabs on their necks which force them to keep their heads bowed.

That's really all there is to it. Modern society has led a lot of us to believe pride and hubris are OK. They aren't. End of story.

The only effect it's had is to give sportswriters something to talk about on a slow couple of weeks. Plus producing fine, nuanced discussion in this very comment thread of course.

I am guessing the rise in jersey sales is from people who didn't really know he existed until after that game(read: not actually in Seattle)... probably not.

God, I wish. I hate those fucking things. It's been so long since a sports team has been any good in this town that nobody knows how to act.

Local weather guy came on tonight for NY/NJ weather forecast. After just getting 8-12 inches here yesterday, and a polar vortex is back in place after it hit, is predicted to last much longer than the previous one did...

Saturday chance of 2-3 inches of snow. Monday watching the models, chance of a significant snow storm. Followed up by the possibility of a massive snow storm within 48 hours of the game. Lots of maybes, and a long ways out. The pattern we are in though is not favorable to say the least for good weather.
