The final play call of Super Bowl XLIX continues to eat at Seahawks coach Pete Carroll and fans alike. It is always easy to second guess something after the fact, but this level of criticism over a play call may be unprecedented. It only gets worse when one of your fans passes away and the family actually mentions the team in the obituary as a cause of death! Michael Sven Vedvik was a longtime Hawks’ fan who passed yesterday. The family made sure to mention the team as why Michael left them so early. That is so cold.

Here is the obituary from a local newspaper
VEDVIK, Michael Sven Michael Sven Vedvik went to see our Lord Jesus on February 2, 2015 at his home in Kent, WA. Born on December 26, 1961 in Spokane, WA. Michael is survived by his wife Stephanie; daughters Alisha Vedvik, Brittany Mullins (husband Matthew), Chelsea Vedvik; stepdaughters Michelle and Sandy Gaughan; grandson Jayce and granddaughter Layla; father Sven Vedvik, mother MaryAnne Solberg (stepfather Gary Solberg); sisters Tina Piper and Kathrene Peters (husband Dan) and numerous nieces, nephews and cousins. Michael attended Rogers High and Spokane Falls Community College. He was a small business owner in Kent, WA and loved his family, work, clients, traveling, the Seahawks and life. We blame the Seahawks lousy play call for Mike’s untimely demise. Mike was greatly loved and will be dearly missed. Funeral will be on February 7th, at 4:00 pm, at Mt. Spokane Church. 6311 E. Mt. Spokane Dr. Mead, WA 99021. Pastor Bob Smith will be officiating.
I hope there was some level of sarcasm here.
