It's probably more wise to endear the hometown fan base

And if fans can't take the light prodding, then there are bigger issues at play.

I don't think the Gate Agent working my flight to PDX was very happy. They were offering prebord with those wearing Seahawks attire along with Golds. I made sure i had my BP scanned before I said "Go Patriots" The look on his face was priceless
I had no dog in this race, but I've found that Seahawks fans, and PNWers in general, are pretty gracious.

There were a couple of articles a couple weeks ago about the kindness of Seattle fans:
