In case you missed it, Brock Huard and Mike Salk spent nearly 30 minutes talking about my To Suck, Or Not To Suck series. They are always a good listen. You can listen to part one here (you may want to fast-forward to the ~29 min mark) Part two is here...

Good teams judge their seasons by only one metric, wins. Great teams judge their seasons by one game, the Super Bowl. The 2011 Seahawks are neither good nor great, so their season must be judged differently. Eight games into this season, the team is 2-6, but there continue to be...
