The Fast Fifteen: Matt Hasselbeck at the Coin Toss

"We want the ball and we're going to score." - Matt Hasselbeck for the Seahawks as he did make that promise.....he threw it to Al Harris, who danced his way into the end zone.....for the Packers.

Well he gets to do it again, here are some likely quotes of his to look out for:

15. "We want the ball and we're going to lose, get our woeful asses kicked."

14. "We want the funk, we gotta have that funk."

13. "I totally blew that guarantee, but that's okay, I'll ask the ref, to penalize the Packers, for no good reason, to start the game, to even things up, thank you."

12. "What is Britney doing with her life?"

11. "We want the ball and we're going to score, my good friend Anthony Smith told me."

10. "We want the buh.....rett Favre is Brett Favre and only Brett Favre can be Brett Favre and at the same time can't be Brett Favre."

9. "We want the ball, and Shaun here will get it and run backwards."

8. "We will defer, I'm going to go watch The View ."

7. "We will defer, hold up, hold up. McCAIN WON THE PRIMARY?! Well I'll be damned."

6. "Let's just cancel the game, because ArmchairGM currently has some catfighting going on."

5. "Can we do something else besides the coin toss Mr. Hochuli? You've been looking for the coin in Tony Siragusa's flab for 20 minutes now."

4. "Goodness, I'm not Tim Hasselbeck!"

3. "Is Cris Collinsworth here?"

2. "Give me the damn ball!"

1. Brett Favre: "Dammit Matt, I'm older than you yet I still have more hair than the entire Hasselbeck family!"

Knock yourselves out.

I apologize for that comment. I hadn't been to the locker room in a while. I meant it to be humorous. Please ignore it!

12. WHO THE FACK CARES!!! A game that close, and the announcer starts talking about something completely unrelated from everthing else... we wouldn't even hear that during week 17 when a team in down by 40+ points, its the fourth quarter, the scout team is in, and hell is frozen over...

its gutsy, but you gotta back that shit up... I mean, we'd make fun of Joe Namath (a less fun, probably less sober joe namath) a lot more if the guarantee didn't work...

hey, I liked the fact that he showed confidence... I would line-up next to him on the field plus, it showed that he has balls (whether there was a mic or not) right in front of the other team...

well...i'm sure it inspired his team...

afterall, he is the one who threw the pick...

I agree falcon, but like most other gutsy calls, you gotta back it up...

I don't fault him, but i do make fun of him for it...

He threw it, yes, but it was a timing route thrown to the #56 reciever who went 8 yards as opposed to 6. It was perfectly placed...but wrong route. Now, he did throw it so he was at fault, but in the west coast offense there are a lot of plays that the QB isn't even supposed to look at the route.

I'd rather have a guy say "I'm going to beat you!" and then lose than a guy who mails it in -- but his teammates carry him to victory.

HA!

The word out of Green Bay is that the Green Bay fans/reporters/players really liked that he said it because it showed that he was a "leader". I guess even Favre had a smile on his face.

Right after it happened people we down on Hass for it, but really, I agree that it showed he was a leader and had beleived.

The funny thing (courtesy of 950 KJR) the Hawks Defense for that game consisted of 4 people that are still in the NFL, Trufant, Springs, Godfrey and Okeafor. Only one still on the Hawks

How many times did Babe Ruth call his shot and not hit a HR?

(P.S. - the answer is - the same amount of times he call his shot and hit a HR - none)

Hasselback only screwed up by not saying "We'll take the ball and we're gonna WIN!" - otherwise he was 100% correct...

Good catch. How many times did Jon Kitna predict 10 wins in a season and actually won ten games?
