Mike Holmgren Hates Money

He must, because he is going to be donating a whole lot of it to the NFL after his comments on Monday. The Seahawks coach addressed the crowd in Seattle and let them know what he thought of the league's officiating during the Super Bowl.

"We knew it was going to be tough going up against the Pittsburgh Steelers," Holmgren told the fans at Qwest Field. "I didn't know we were going to have to play the guys in the striped shirts as well."

Quit crying.

It's understandable that Holmgren is a little pissed. But the coach of an NFL team should be above using the referees as a scapegoat. Remember the Doug Eddings fiasco in the ALCS? Mike Scioscia would not call out the umpire, instead saying that his team missed some opportunities.

Holmgren should have said, "We knew it was going to be tough going up against the Pittsburgh Steelers, I didn't realize that our kicker couldn't make a field goal, our tight end can't catch, and we can't seem to stop teams on third and 28."

****

Not bad from a blog called "thehaternation".
