Like the Seahawks, Marshawn Lynch has 2nd chance this season

""They just closed down Bourbon Street because of you!" The shout came from an unidentified Seahawks teammate who strolled past Marshawn Lynch's stall in Seattle's euphoric locker room last Saturday, moments after the young running back sent the New Orleans Saints marching home in defeat 41-36.

Chatting quietly with an NFL reporter, Lynch momentarily glanced up. "That's OK. I don't like Bourbon Street anyway," he sniffed.

No, Lynch insisted, he has a couple of other destinations in mind. They involve Texas barbecue and palm trees.

"I want to go to Disney World," he said, referring to Super Bowl XLV in Dallas next month, where the game's MVP tells the world of his postseason vacation plans.

Goofy as it seems, the 8-9 Seahawks will be within one victory of Lynch's dream excursion if they defeat the Chicago Bears on Sunday.

The 24-year-old former Cal star was a linchpin in the win against the defending Super Bowl champions after an electrifying, tackle-busting 67-yard touchdown jaunt in the fourth quarter."
