The best way to capture what happened yesterday may be in the combined voice of fans after the game. Check out a sampling of some tweets. Names have been removed, but you may recognize yours:
“Thank you, @PeteCarroll. You made us relevant again!”
“Let’s talk about Harbaugh and Whitehurst some more.”
“Ahem…TOLD YOU @#$@#$ ASSES!”
“That run by Marshawn Lynch will go into my memory like Griffey sliding home.”
“Those who said the Seahawks didn’t deserve to be in the playoffs can suck it!”
“Un. Be. Lievable. Best game I’ve ever been to.”
“I look like a teenager that touched his first boob, can’t wipe this goofy grin off my face.”
“Who dat…we dat..”
“To all those who doubted the #Seahawks, here’s a big @#$# YOU!”
“Thank you, Paul Allen.”
“We did it baby! we did it, we won. life is good after all.”

“Thank you @hasselbeck for a tremendous effort. You are a #Seattle legend.”
“I am literally crying tears of joy. Fuck yes. #seahawks!”
