All American Pasttime
Well, we did it again! Seattle Seahawks beat Greenbay Packers 28-22 and won the ticket to Super Bowl two years in a row. We were losing terribly until the third quarter and Mike even turned the TV off because he thought there is no way we could turn it around. Upset, he went upstairs to lay down on the bed. Sean was in tears, screaming that we are losing. We were in a dump and gloomy mood just like the weather outside. I was getting sleepy and actually fell asleep on the couch until Mike came down and turned the TV on again saying his friend texted him to check the game out. Before the TV went off, the score was 7-19 and there were only five minutes left on the clock.
Well, something amazing happened in the last three minutes of the game. In the last three minutes of the game, Seahawks gets two touchdowns and a two-point conversion. They scored 16 points in three minutes and led the game 22-19. Packers weren't going to go out easily though. At one minute left, the quarter back efficiently moved the ball down the field, close enough for their kicker to score a field goal. They were tied 22-22 and went to the Overtime. At this point, Mike, Sean and I were just stunned. We could not believe the big come back the Seahawks made. We were for sure, 99% sure, that we were going to lose. In the miraculous moment, Russell Wilson made two long passes and BOOM, Jermaine Kearse makes the winning touchdown. WOW!! That was a blow out game. Sad, nervous, shocked, happy, teary, we got some emotional workout today. Thank you Seahawks for playing so hard and showing us that a hard work and resilience will help make our dreams come true. It's just a football but it sure means a lot for people in Seattle. Wooohooo!! Super Bowl here we come!
p.s. The pictures above were taken on last Friday after school. I didn't take any pictures of us watching football today.
