SEAHAWKS @ BROWNS NOVEMBER 4, 2007

One of the main reasons for the trip to Cleveland was to go to see the Seahawks play the Browns. It was my first NFL game so I was very very excited. Yes we lost, that kinda sucked. But it was SO much fun. Seeing the guys warming up before the game, getting some autographs, getting a what's up head nod from a ref because I yelled "GO REFS!" It was a really good time. I got to see my favorite player have a career day and got to see Nate Burleson return a punt for a touchdown, now THAT was exciting. All in all it was a good day.

Autograph time!! The 4 of us got autographs from a couple different players. I really wanted my jersey signed by my favorite Seahawk--Bobby Engram--but he wasn't signing.

I LOVE this picture. Chris did a great job of getting just him praying with noone else in the picture.

Another favorite picture. Engram is my favorite player and I love this pic of him achnowledging us Hawks fans. He must have been pumped up because he had over 130 recieving yards and a TD.

This was probably one of my favorite moments. We gathered right down where the Hawks come out of the tunnel so that during warm ups and pre-game we could see the guys and get some autographs. This was the linebackers huddling up right in front of us. It gave me goosebumps. They were literally 5-10 feet in front us and it felt like we were right there in the huddle with them, it was awesome!!

After the game outside our hotel we met these two Englishmen who came all the way from England just to see the Browns. Of course we had to take their picture:)

NFL HALL OF FAME -- CANTON, OHIO

We spent our last day in Cleveland at the NFL Hall of Fame. We really enjoyed it--they have jerseys and game artifacts from back in the 50's and earlier, along with jerseys and footballs that broke records from as early as a week ago. The busts in the actual Hall of Fame exhibit were very cool, and the interactive displays were pretty neat (although somewhat dated). Definitely the highlight was to see Steve Largent's bust and game-worn jerseys from his days as a Seahawk.

Like my pose?

How is that for an old school uniform? Check out the piece of goal post Brett Favre broke the all time TD record a few weeks ago and the ball he threw it with is already in the Hall of Fame so of course we took a pic of it Two years ago Seattle's own Shaun Alexander broke the single season scoring TD record by scoring his 28th TD of the season against the Green Bay Packers. He broke the previous record of 27 set by Priest Holmes. This is the uniform and cleats he wore that day Rob Bironas of the Tennessee Titans kicked an NFL record 8 field goals in a game on October 21st, 2007. This is the ball that he kicked his 8th field goal with. Below are pictures of many of the different busts located in a special section of the Hall of Fame. All inductees are forever captured with a bronze bust.
