Here's an idea
In this thread, post things that were true the last time the Seahawks won a playoff game. It was 21 years ago in 1984 I believe.
Here's a start:
1) Reagan was president.
2) The VCR was new technology.
3) Computers ran on MS-DOS.
The Last Time Seagulls won a Playoff Game...

Actually, I hate these kinds of stats. They used to bring this up everytime the Redskins played the Cowboys before we broke the streak, as if the Skins had no chance of winning the game because they hadn't won a game in so long.
It's interesting, but it has no relevance to what happens Saturday. The Skins will need to play their best on both sides of the ball from here on out...
