    I guess we look at those things in very different ways. Calling some old lady a whore is really bad, and classless, but not even close to the same thing as throwing food at a guy who just had his knee bend in a direction that it was never meant to bend.

    Duck fans have a tendency to boo injured players because they think they're faking to slow down their offense. I guess if you want to compare something to what Seattle fans did, that would be a better direction to go.

    Kaepernick just said he threw the last ball "I had 1-on-1 matchup with Crab, I'll take that every time."

    Reporter: "Even against Sherman?!"

    Kaep: "Against anyone."

    It obviously wasn't a 1-on-1 matchup..... because the other guy standing there picked the ball.

    then you're part of a shit classless fan base who prides themselves on having a loud home field. Pat yourself on the back. I dunno. They have a great home field advantage, and they feed back into it.

    I dunno how there's a huge difference in class in a person who throws food at an NFL player who hurt his knee, and a person who calls an old woman a whore. If there's a difference, it's small. I dunno how you're differentiating other than being a 49ers fan and not liking the Seahawks.

    Nah, it was...I haven't broken it down, but from the couple of replays it looked like Smith had "under" responsibilities and followed the fade after the ball was thrown. When he threw it, Kaepernick had 1-v-1 w/Sherman on Crabtree

    Yeah, you're clearly right. Calling some old lady a whore and hurting her feelings for 15 minutes is the same thing as throwing food at a guy who will have to spend the next year rehabbing from a major knee injury that might rob him of his career. DEFINITELY the same thing.

    the food hurt him the same amount the insult did. Gimme a fucking break Nate. The food throwing didn't cause the damn knee injury. Maybe instead if they called Bowman's grandmother a whore, you'd think it was an ok move ad feel some kinship with their fanbase?

    Because once a few Seahawks fans did a bad thing and he doesn't like Seahawks fans, he is better than all Seahawks fans. No flaw in that logic, nope, none whatsoever.

    Dude, do you seriously not understand how there are different circumstances? They're both classless moves, but I would THINK that a fan could differentiate between calling someone a mean name and kicking a man while he's down because his knee is currently destroyed.

    I guess not....

    Hahahahahah okay man. Whatever makes you feel better. I'm not the one justifying one bad thing with another. Ever heard that phrase, "two wrongs don't make a right?" The Seahawk fans throw food on a severely injured player and he justifies it by pointing out that Duck fans called Kevin Love's grandmother a whore one time.

    Guess not. Looking at the two, a fan getting so worked up that they do something really shit to an injured player on a team they hate....really fucking lame. Classless. Worked up against a team, and lose your head.
    Or, a fan getting so worked up against a team they hate that they see a player on that team's grandmother in the crowd by them and call her a whore......

    Yeah, I think calling someone unrealted to the game a whore, a grandmother, is a bit worse honestly.

    I did no such thing Nate, come on man. I am not justifying their actions. I said bitching about an entire fan base for the actions of a small portion is stupid, the same way I wouldn't lump an Oregon fan base into the few stupid ones that did that. The sae way I would not say our entire Blazers fan base is crap for the poor actions I've seen of a few.

    I was chatting with 9ers fans during the game and they were quite upset with the Bowman injury. It was a horrible injury and al the hawks fans in the chat I saw were classy and calling out any fans that were trying to rub salt in the wound (and there were a few). I just don't think you can generalize all fans for actions of a few. I don't think RR7 was justifying what happened to Bowman when he was carted off the field, but maybe I missed something.

    Edit: Also, sorry if I am coming across like a dick. I get it was an emotional game, and I can't say that I wouldn't be a little touchy had the game gone differently. I'm just going to quit commenting on this. Just wanted to say that not all Hawks fans are bad people despite your experiences or some examples of bad apples.

    I haven't read through the whole thread yet but I am sure Nate said that the Refs caused the 9ers to lose right?

    They made some bad calls for sure. Kaep lost this game though. He was not good in the 2nd half. 2 picks and a strip sack in crunch time doesn't get it done.

    Hawks were the better team today. Not saying they are the better team overall (don't believe that). But on one day (which is all it takes) the Hawks showed they were better.

    How about you read the thread before making assumptions?

    quite the opposite. Nate didn't try to blame the refs at all.

    There were some bad calls both ways, but nothing that affected the game. Frankly, the noncall on the fumble when Bowman was hurt ended up with the 9ers having better field position with the 4th down play. Overall I thought the reffing was pretty even.

    My apologies. I should. I watched the whole game without hanging out in here so it is going to take me a while to get through all the posts.
