Brandon Brown Harbaugh comments: More inane chatter from a Seattle Seahawks cornerback!
I really enjoy how easy it is to loathe the cornerbacks on the Seattle Seahawks. I mean, the whole team is pretty loathe-worthy. They are division rivals, so that might have something to do with it, but everything from Pete Carroll's inability to stand still on the sideline to, well, ...
