Hey all! I do miss an active Seahawks community after so many years on Reddit, I was curious how many people subscribed here are active? I might even be willing to make occasional posts with effort if we can get discussions going. Since I should probably include an actual question for people to answer, what is your first Seahawks memory and/or how long have you been a fan? My first would have to be going to a Hawks/Rams game in the Kingdome with my grandfather. I was about 7 at the time although my favorite parts were probably the crackerjacks and getting to use his binoculars.

I’ve been a fan since Super Bowl XL. Being the contrarian little shit I was in 4th grade, I was rooting for the Steelers for those 2 weeks while everyone else at my school was so excited about the Seahawks. Watching the refs win that game put me back on the right path lol.

I've been a fan since around 2012 Beastmode was my favorite player, It was just amazing anytime he was on the field. When I wasn't watching an nfl game in my free time I would be playing madden as the Seahawks in franchise mode. I still miss when watching Marshawn tear up the opposing teams defense.

Actually had a small group on FB that was the only reason I kept that platform...but since thwy all went one way or another I dropped it. Never got into the Reddit one. Ill be here when i can remember, its more difficult since i live about y time zones away now lol

Fan since wayyyyyyyy back in the day, '77ish. My dad took me to my first game in the old kingdome against the Redskins...the ticket had thier logo & them with top billing & our name waaay at the bottom...flash forward a few years we moved back to Seattle for a time and took my son to his first NFL game there against...the Redskins. We lost both games. Tradition.

Hello, I'm here.

I think the NFL community will have to grow larger before we get a nice, active community going here. A month or so ago I was going to start posting the pressers here regularly but I couldn't find a lemmy app I liked or at least one that made posting easier. Now that Sync is out and running nicely I think I will start that again. Also once the season starts I have a feeling we will get some more regulars showing up.

Great! If we give people a reason to come here I imagine it will grow. I have no need for the current seahawks reddit, just an actual community to whine about the refs and questionable decisions and celebrate good wins.
