Again, seattle idiocy. Trademark is concerned with date of first usage. A&Ms registered trademark has a date of first usage of 1922. The argument that seattle used it in 1984 is self defeating - the same logic can be applied to A&M usage dating from 1922. And WTF am I talking about?!?!?!?! We have a f'ing registered trademark!!! Nuff said.

What kind of idiots put up a poll in which you can vote multiple times. It's the American Idol of tv stations...

Seahawk fans need to listen to one of their own:
http://www.komotv.com/kenschram/story.asp?ID=41603
"Texas A&M wants its fair financial taste of the 12th man brand that the school created back in 1922.
Paul Allen should grasp that.
Hell, if someone started a business called "Vulcan" - that's the name of Allen's company - do you think Allen would just sit back and do nothing?
This isn't about you and me giving up the 12th man concept, or the 12th man hoopla.
It's about a professional sports team giving up the idea of getting something for nothing."

WHOOOOOOOOOOOP!!!
Thank you Big Red. I just sent that to all of my firends up here in Washington. I've been saying the same thing for days!
I also think this is about loosing the distinctiveness of the A&M 12th Man vs. just having a loud crowd...

Amazing, four days and still going. It doesn't take much to keep you guys occupied, does it?
Also, here is some inside info to help your voting....the poll only registers one vote from your IP address every minute. So you can vote 20 times in a minute, but only one vote counts.
Also, don't lose the link to the poll, because eventually it will be taken off the KIRO website, but you can keep finding it if you have the link.
