So, they deleted that tweet and apologized:
We apologize for poor judgment shown in a tweet sent earlier. We did not intend to compare football to the civil rights legacy of Dr. King.

Dear Seattle Seahawks, as long as you are in the apology mode why don’t you apologize for having a criminal as a head coach?
