Mike Holmgren will return for a final season as coach of the Seattle Seahawks but only a final season. The 59-year-old veteran of 16 seasons as an NFL head coach announced his decision Tuesday to fulfill the final year of his contract, after spending the weekend with his wife at their offseason Arizona home. Kathy and I came to this decision to finish my contract, said Holmgren, who had hinted at retirement for weeks. This will be my last year. We are going to make it the best year ever. And then probably after that, I will take a little time off but not yet. We are going to go after it hard.

This don’t belong here in News/Activism, and Holgren can’t help the Hawks. Hutchinson’s in Minnesota, doing for Adrian Peterson what he used to do for Shaun Alexander, who, incidentally, will probably not be a Seahawk much longer.
Oops. Guess I wasn’t reading “News/Activism”. Sorry for that particular error, but still stand by the rest...
