Texas A&M Zings the Seattle Seahawks During Playoff Game

The '12th Man' was well-represented in Seattle Saturday afternoon during the Seahawks 23-15 win over the New Orleans Saints. They were loud; they were crazy; they were everything that the football team could hope for.

But online another '12th Man' decided to remind the world that Seattle's fan base is not the original 12th Man.

No, that fan base resides deep in the heart of Texas.

For those not familiar with the story, Texas A&M and the Seahawks had a nice little legal battle back in 2006 (if you want to read more about it go here). In the end, when push came to shove the Seahawks agreed to pay the Aggies a licensing fee so that they could continue to use the name.
