The Seattle Seahawks lost at home on Sunday to the Arizona Cardinals. Count Joe Fitzgibbon, a state representative in Washington, among those upset.
Of course rather then be angry about the loss Fitzgibbon called the sate of Arizona a racist desert.

Even Fitzgibbon’s apology tweet was self serving and half-hearted.
Upset re hawks loss, and failure of smart immigration reform–shouldn’t have conflated the 2 though. Happy holidays, better for both in ’14

Sadly the win over the Seahawks does not guarantee the Cardinals a playoff spot. In fact the Cardinals could win next week and finish 11-5 and still miss the playoffs. Now that is a real bummer.
And of course, feel free to voice your thoughts about Fitzgibbon below.
