Good morning, everybody. Welcome to another episode of Hock Blogger Mornings. I'm Brian Mhouser

coming at you on everywhere, TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, all the places at Hock Blogger.

And we're starting a little later this morning because there's a special guest, a first time guest that we're bringing on the show.

And I've labeled a mystery guest because I want people to have a few guesses at it.

You should hopefully be able to tell by the thumbnail, at least the one that was preceding the show.

This is a guy that is emblematic of the Pacific Northwest.

He has, on his best moments, been one of the best players in Seahawks history, a true Seahawks legend, and responsible in a lot of ways for the first Seahawks Super Bowl in this franchise's history.

He's also had some rough times, whether it was at University of Washington or in Seattle.

And, you know, the adversity that Tees overcome to become the player that he was for Seattle,

I think is one of the lesser told stories of all the Seahawks players for that amazing Legion of Boom era.

If you haven't guessed, it is our pal, Jermaine Curse of your Seattle Seahawks.

How are you doing, Jermaine?

Good to see you, man.

I'm doing good. How are you doing?

I'm doing well. I'm doing well.

I don't know if everybody knows, you know, you are tried and true Pacific Northwest, grew up here, played at University of Washington, played for the Seahawks.

We always talk with players that come from the south

or other parts of the country that have to come up

and adjust to the northwest.

You ended up going to New York.

What was it like for you after all this time in the Northwest

heading out there to the Big Apple?
