Shaun Ellis' snowball is bigger than yours
Posted by Danny O'Neil
New York Jets defensive end Shaun Ellis subscribes to the Bigger Hammer school of thought. At least he did while leaving Qwest Field on Sunday. A number of snowballs were being thrown at Jets players as they left, and Ellis found something bigger to throw back. It's been linked up at Web sites like Deadspin.com, ProFootballTalk.com just to name two of them.
There were even apparent incidents of friendly fire. A few snowballs were thrown at Mike Holmgren as he made a lap around the field after the game. Holmgren was asked about it on Monday during his press conference.
"First of all, the people in our stadium don't see snow that much so it had to be a tremendous novelty, you know? I know if my grandkids were up there and there was a snowball sitting right there -- and they're good kids, they're not mean kids -- it would be pretty hard for them not to throw it. No one got hurt, which is a good thing. The best thing we can do probably is our preparation in getting the snow out of the stadium if it should ever happen again."
-- Mike Holmgren, Seahawks coach
