Here's a great sign for Seattle Seahawks fans: Recently signed quarterback Matt Flynn picks up on stuff quickly.

It's only been a month or so since the highly touted Green Bay playcaller agreed to play here in the Northwest. Even though we haven't seen him in a blue uniform (or whatever cartoon color they are now), Flynn has already followed in the tradition of Seahawk players visiting Joint Base Lewis-McChord.

That's according to a picture posted by Twitter user @somerBhanson of Spanaway, who wrote the following on Thursday:

Thanks for sharing Somer. It's kind of blurry, but it's still awesome to see.

And kudos to Flynn. Even before he has stepped on the turf at Century Link Field, Thursday's visit has already garnered him plenty of fans here in the South Sound.

Go Hawks. Hooah!
