Great article about Kam Chancellor and the Legion of Boom at Seattle and his philosophy on the bone crushing hits he delivers.
"Their eyes get a little big and they're like, 'Oh, man, was that real?' " he said. "I just smile back. It's fun for me. It's like a race through the body and I feel everything, all the emotion comes out. It makes me just want to hit harder."

He had some monster hits while at Virginia Tech, too. If I envisoned Bud Foster ever having an NFL Defense, it would be similar to that of the Seahawks.
Open thread to post reations to the LOB, Kam, or about his best hits/plays as a Hokie.

Here he is....
2007? Seems like he was just on the team yesterday!
i didnt really care about who was gonna win but now i want kam to bring it home.
Go Hawks!!!
Definitely rooting for the Seahawks, and it's entirely because of Kam. And I'm okay with that.
Been pulling for the Hawks since Kam won a starting job there! My brother is also a Kam with a K and Kam Chancellor is the only other Kam we've ever known to be spelled with a K, so we've paid attention to him since he was a Hokie. And he'll always be one of our favorite Hokies!
Kam has always been a physical beast. I always knew Seattle got a steal when they drafted him in the 5th round. I think he took over as starting safety his second year?
I just wish Pete Carroll wasn't their head coach. Now, if Kam goes out, plays a hell of a game and gets defensive MVP of the Superbowl, that would be fine. I just can't pull for Pete to win a Superbowl...
^^^^THIS^^^^ Love Kam but HATE Pete Carroll so much more.
yeah I'm kind of on board with this..Obviously, I love Kam and want to see him get that ring..I also like Sherman and Wilson and Lynch...but I just despise Pete Carroll. I like Peyton Manning and Decker and I don't have anything against anyone else in that organization..I don't really know who to pull for. I'll just be happy to see a good game.
Go Football!!!
...and hopefully we can root for Vinston Painter and when the Broncos win, he gets a ring.
