Seahawks Owner Defends Steelers Fandom

New Seahawks owner Vinod Khosla has defended his admission of being a Pittsburgh Steelers fan, saying he remains committed to Seattle's success as owner. Khosla responded to criticism of his comments from his first press conference after the team sale was approved.

"Reporters will make every molehill into a mountain just to get column inches to write or video minutes," Khosla said on Twitter. "What's wrong with admitting my 1976-78 period in Pittsburgh (CMU) got me excited about the NFL? I still watch their games doesn't mean I won't unconditionally ALWAYS as owner, want the Seahawks to win and have every edge up, EVERY TIME over every other team!!!!" goldparty.lat
