Now, normally I'm not one to question the News Tribune, Tacoma's local paper. But didn't anyone who works there wonder about their sports-page Seahawks coverage today?
The article is about the post-game celebrations and what all the players, coaches, employees, and former players did as the Seahawks counted down the last five minutes of Sundays game with a clear victory in front of them. The headline over the article, though, was "Super! Thanks for asking"
... because everything is super when you're gay?
It's a bad sign when a paper is quoting song lyrics from South Park, but to steal Big Gay Al's song is just very odd. But it has the word super in it, so they'll use it. I expect to see the following headlines before the S-Bowl:
"Alexander is a SUPERman"
"Holmgren uses SUPERlatives to describe team"
"Walter Jones evicted by SUPER"
"Hasselback offered SOUP OR salad at Olive Garden"
"Paul Allen says seahawks no longer just DUPER"
OK I'm done.
