Fantasy League Kicks Out Mike Holmgren's Daughter Seattle Seahawks Coach Mike Holmgren said that his daughter Calla was recently booted from her league "because of 'inside information.' But I will say, she was clean. It was the appearance."

What kind of idiot would have a fantasy league pal one degree removed from an NFL coach and kick that person out?

Justice for Calla!

Some idiot who wants to win probably.

That's a funny story.

Boy, they did a lot of digging on this one, huh? What is it, three paragraphs? They could have at least called her to find out a little more.

The frightening thing is, this was actually on the front page at espn.com. Maybe they're finally running out of Brett Favre pap.

There is never enough Brett Favre pap.

Unfortunately.

But I will say, she was clean. It was the appearance."
So no steroids were involved?

Was there anything about video cameras and defensive signals?

Fantasy football just became another degree lamer.

What a lame league.
First of all, I have to assume they knew who she was when she joined, why even let her join if her dad was an issue?

Second, even if her dad was going to share "inside" information (unlikely), it would only be in regard to Seahawk plans.

Do they really think dad was going to call before every game with "hey, honey, we're going with more of a running focus this week, so you might want to bench Burleson"

She probably kicked their asses last year and they needed a reason to boot her...

Now it's becoming a little more clear...sort of.

Half of the time coaches don't know. How is she supposed have inside info?
