Maybe Michael Robinson needs to be hired by the team and bring back The Real Rob Report...that and Rain City Redemption were the best videos of the Hawks behind the scenes
I've been saying we need to be on Hard Knocks, but the NFL's "rule" to exclude Playoff teams keeps getting in the way. And I really don't see them changing that rule this season, in the end they will force it on a team - and really the NFL should force it on the Jets.
Of the teams in contention they would draw by far the biggest viewership, and be the most interesting. Heck, don't even show AR12 once in the entire show and remind the general public there are other guys on that team. Bears & Saints could be interesting as well, but for all three I fully see why they want to just get on with doing their thing in really busy off-seasons after major changes. Moons are just a bit dull, and with the ownership change & lingering Snyder issues not sure the NFL wants to really point cameras at them just yet.
Please please please PC/JS step in and volunteer the 'Hawks!!! Get that Geno MVP buzz going early. Show everyone that Riq should have been DROY. Prove why drafting RB's still matters. And just bring that fight and energy centre stage ahead of the LOB2.0 wrecking house. Also good for the NFL, generate that buzz around one of the Thanksgiving teams, and a team who will likely have an additional TNF game.
It would be such perfect timing for the Seahawks, it really would, I would absolutely lap it up, so many stories and a whole crop of interesting udfas. Come on, put your hand up!
I just finished episode 2 of The Sound and totally agree that it is the best yet. Do more of this! The production is better all around, but most importantly this episode is focused and tells a story.
I'd love to see the Seahawks' Hard Knocks, but can understand why teams are reluctant to take part. It's perhaps a little too intimate for the comfort level of most front offices I would think, but that's also what makes it so good. For example, if you watched Hard Knocks last year you may have been able to surmise that D'Andre Swift wasn't the best RB on the team in the eyes of his coaching staff. I'm not sure how that information is used by other teams, but it certainly dropped him down my fantasy draft board and made Jamaal Williams excellent season far less surprising.
For a team whose motto is always compete, Seattle is woefully sad when it comes to public messaging and YouTube. Almost every Pete Carroll press confrence is a disappointment, not because of Pete, but because of presentation. At least half to 75% of the questions asked of Pete can't be heard. This leaves us trying to read the tea leaves as to whose injury he is talking about, or sometimes what he is referring too. Pete is a very engaging fellow, the franchise will sell for $7 billion or more, yet they can't afford two boom mics or just a couple of hand held mics being passed around the room. I think I can speak for most of all Seasiders, that we are hungry to decipher Pete talk or listen to most players who are so well spoken. I am completely baffled by the lack of effort in their documentaries and press confrences. Seattle may have the best player public speakers in the league, show that off. As an aside Seattle is one of the top tech cities in North America. For some reason they present themselves in a 3rd rate manner which is akin to the free community cable channel speaking about falls garden clean up. The only difference is you can hear the community cable channel. Nothing is ever perfect. Seattle has one of the most gifted coaches in the league. Pete has 50 years of experience, and even if he talks around a lot of questions, he always imparts pearls of wisdom. It's just terrible that we have to figure out what question he has been asked. The Hawks figured out they needed to change the way they drafted players and how differently they deploy them. Now it's time to break the bank and spend $500 on audio equipment.
It is very frustrating, and I have taken the time to leave a comment on many occasions. Also I make sure my first sentence is positive, to make sure I don't appear to be your average crab apple. You and I are not alone as I have seen the same comment by many others.

Glad to know I'm not the only one who won't watch the interviews because I can't hear the darn questions.

Just imagine for a second that the Seahawks went on Hard Knocks and then... WON THE SB!!!
Every one of the other 31 teams would want to be on Hard Knocks the next year.
It'll have to happen at some point, I imagine. Just like winning the SB in the home stadium, like the Rams finally did.
"Why not us?" lol...
