Winning isn't Everything

When the Packers lost to the Seattle Seahawks on a very contraversial call, all hell broke loose. Packer fans were beyond upset and Seahawk players and fans pretended like it was an actual win. Maraniss talked about how winning isn't everything however he was so upset with how quarterback Russell Wilson and coach Pete Caroll reacted. He was mad that they acted as if they truly won the game and out played the Packers, which isn't true. He thought that the right thing for these two to do was to talk about how it wasn't a great call and that they are very thankful for winning.

I agree with Maraniss. Neither Caroll or Wilson won that game. They won on a bad call. What they really should be doing is shaking the referees hands for letting them defeat the Green Bay Packers. The fact that they didn't even mention that it was a bad call made Packer fans everywhere lose respect for them. I agree with Maraniss completed. The way they reacted wasn't okay at all.

  1. The way that the Seattle Seahawks reacted was very improfessional. They acted though they had won when they really won just off a bogus call. I think it just shows how everybody is just concerned with winning the game. Hopefully, the Packers will just look to this experience as a reminder.

  2. I agree completely. These people are losing the fact that wining is in fact not everything. They are being looked up to by thousands of kids and this is the impression they are giving to the younger generation. Respect is out the window and this is very sad.

  3. I agree with you wilson didn't win the game and they should have said something about the high school refs. They should have said that this is why we need the professional refs back but they just sat there saying that they won the game them selves
