Seattle Seahawks issue an apology from their mascot

SEATTLE, Nov. 12 (UPI) -- The Seattle Seahawks gave fans a laugh after issuing an apology from their mascot right after two of their players were caught dancing on the sidelines.

The team's Twitter account posted an apology from the hawk, Taima, after he took off into the stands Sunday and landed on some fans.

If that wasn't enough to make the Seahawks smile, after their 38-17 win against the New York Giants, running back Marshawn Lynch tried to get kicker Steven Hauschka to do a celebratory dance after Lynch rushed 140 yards and scored four touchdowns.
