New Seahawks owner Vinod Khosla has defended his admission that he remains a Pittsburgh Steelers fan, criticizing media reaction to his comments during his first press conference.

'I still watch their games doesn't mean I won't unconditionally ALWAYS as owner, want the [Seahawks] to win and have every edge up, EVERY TIME over every other team!!!!' he wrote, acknowledging his 'very transparent style.' Khosla's comments came after Barstool Sports pointed out that admitting to being a Steelers fan 'is not what to do during your opening press conference as the new Seahawks owner.'
