It (seeing the Seahawks lose Sunday) reminds me of the time I actually met Vanna White.

I got up close to her and I went ‘crap, what a disappointment.’ I remember backing away about 20 feet and I thought ‘now there you go.’

KIRO Radio co-host Tom Tangney: You’re comparing our Seahawks to Vanna White? That’s disrespect.

Vanna White has never turned the wrong letter. She has a whole autobiography about herself; never missed a letter. She’s never missed a turn, never called in sick. She’s there 100 percent of the time.

But sometimes when you get up close, you’re like ‘man.’

Tangney: Vanna White has never won a Super Bowl. How dare you compare the Seahawks to Vanna fricking White.

It was the first thing that came to mind.
