We were shocked that less than 60K came to PBS today - you couldn't have asked for a better scenario: Sunny, in the 60s, 3-0 team ... I guess tickets remain for Seattle, but those are dwindling.
The season is 25% over. Barring injury armageddon this team is on its way to the postseason for the fifth straight year, which is heck of an accomplishment (but one the guys who cover the team knew would happen - national guys kinda whiffed on this team). I dunno - I think it's not worth wringing hands over the playoffs until it's the playoffs. They have to get there first, and thus far it's been fun to cover (and to watch, I imagine).
And everyone in the locker room says the same thing--we're happy to be 4-0 but we have a lot of work to do. And when they ask Andy about how well he's playing, the first word of every sentence out of his mouth is "we."
It's a thing of beauty. The coaches, the players, everybody, operating at a higher level.
Some fans are playing it like the team--happy so far, work to do, one game at a time, long way to go.
If it keeps up like this, though, eventually the past will not be able to contain the excitement and you will see pandemonium.
