on the way home and kind of disgusted.

When the first pass overthrew Fitz by several yards, I thought "OK Kolb, that one was nerves. Now settle down." He really got into the flow of the game in a hurry and it was almost touching to see how totally excited he was after the TD pass.

This dude had an extremely rough offseason (albeit a financially rewarding one) and it was nice to see that he remembered how to have fun playing football.

Im in 451. I love my seats because the price is great for what they are, row 4 upper level on the aisle.

But the section isn't friendly like my old section (453) was. Lots of rotating people from ticket brokers and a couple of bad seeds.

I am gonna see whats available. I can't deal with this crap all season long. Last year my buddy got thrown out for throwing a cup back at a Cowboys fan why through it at him, and NO ONE in our section said a word either for or against him aside from me. Stupid move on his part, but we had just gotten hit with 3 cups in a row.

I'm in row 6 -- I tried to add two seats near mine, but couldn't get another two in the bottom part of the section. There are kids around in our section and generally we don't have problems (especially down low). Occasionally people can get into it, but the regulars don't get into it with anyone and just ignore it or try to get people to stop (especially if very bad language with the kids around) and we're quick to text it in.

there were some boos but it wasn't that many.

A lot more than "some."

We are pretty close to the field, and it was loud. Not as loud as you know, a tee shirt toss, but what is, really? but still loud. Loud enough to make us look up from watching the Skelton replays on the dude's replay device and say WTF, whoah. And enough that at the end we were all laughing at the boo birds.

I was very unhappy that people were booing Kolb as well. I was also more disgusted and on the edge of throwing down with a few "Cardinal" (using that term loosely for the morons behind me) and Seahawk fans that were making fun of Skelton and calling him names WHILE he was down on the ground. Very bad crowd in my section yesterday, very disgusted leaving the game. I'd never met so many jerk ass Seahawk fans as I did yesterday either. That being said, booing Kolb when he came in was just idiotic. I doubt many if any on this board did, but man the quality of fan at the stadium disappoints me sometimes.

This is the NFL, it's a professional football league, were players are paid millions of dollars to produce and fans pay a lot of money to watch the games and buy tickets etc.

If they want to boo they have that right.

I agree it's counter productive to boo players on your own team, personally I wouldn't do it but I have a hard time saying it's disgraceful it's simply their right to do so.

Booing is equal to showing disgust or displeasure. If fans have a right to boo then I say Boo to the fans who booed.

In my section you could hear the boos but they were not that loud or that long. Most of the noise from my section was people grumbling about the few people booing Kolb.

Absolutely agree. But there was no point to their booing. Dude left in an air cast.

In that particular case it's pretty stupid to boo yes I agree.

First of all it's completely off the coaches back there's nothing they can do he's got to play and from a fan perspective he's your only chance right now to win the game.

So yes I agree it's stupid and a poor choice but disgraceful is a bit far IMO, more ignorant than anything.

My last response was eaten by the internet gremlins.


The point I was trying to make is that fans booing in this case was beyond stupid. It was so stupid I boo them and I don't believe in booing unless it's directed at the Refs.

I hear ya. Refs are always deserving of boos, too. And those dummies should have been booed by refs.

Okay, that was clever. Getting booed by refs is the ultimate insult. :thumbup:
