Atlanta Hawks rock Seattle colors night before Falcons-Seahawks playoff game
File this one under the poor timing file.
The Atlanta Falcons are preparing to host the Seattle Seahawks in a pivotal divisional round playoff game on Saturday afternoon. So, naturally, Atlanta's NBA team, the Hawks, rocked throwback uniforms the night before - uniforms in Seahawks colors.

Atlanta's Hawks looking like Seahawks? Yikes.
Let the Hawks explain themselves, though.
@Kfade22 We've had this planned for months, and these were our colors before the Seahawks were even a thing.

@Steffnov Definitely not ideal, but we've had it planned for months.

@shaunemmons We agree. But we had this planned long before the bracket played itself out. Go Falcons!

Shouts to the Hawks' Twitter account, one of the best in the business (is tweeting a business?).
