Seahawks Kicker to wear heated pants vs. Packers!!!

[pojo]

SEATTLE -- Seattle Seahawks kicker Josh Brown says he'll wear heated warm-up pants in the freezing weather at Saturday's playoff game in Green Bay.

Brown says he has equipped his pants with battery-powered heaters for the calves, thighs and hamstrings.

Brown told KIRO Radio that no matter how low the temperature drops, his legs will be 75 degrees.

Brown says kickers, who spend most of the game on the sideline, have to work harder to stay loose in cold weather by walking around, practicing kicks or using heaters.

The National Weather Service is predicting a 20 percent chance of snow showers on Saturday in Green Bay, with a high near 28. Temperatures are expected to dip to 17 degrees on Saturday night.

The game is scheduled to kick off at 4:30 p.m. ET.

I'm with you. 28 degrees? That's two t-shirts and a possible sweatshirt weather.

It won't suprise me if some male fans are topless. I'm sure you'd like to see the females topless.

Give the guy a break. It's not like he's taking performace enhancing drugs. Hell, he's just using performance enhancing long johns

I'm old enough to remember when Joe Namath took a boat load of crap for wearing panty hose to stay warm, once upon a time. It's all about technology

[SharkOnLand]

Is that a heater in your pants or are you just happy to see me?

When I ski, 28 degrees means time to wear a baseball cap and sun glasses.

so many jokes, so little bandwidth.

My question is this....

Will the NFL allow this?


Hell, they fine people $25,000 if they don't have their socks pulled up high enough....surely this is not "proper uniform standards"?

He's used battery powered heaters in his warm-ups for several years now . . . the warm-ups come off when he goes on the field.
Wouldn't it be sweet if the 'Hawks won by three points, thanks to their warm legged kicker? I don't think it will be that close, let's call it 'Hawks by THREE field goals!

"We want the ball, and we're going to score!"

Sure . . . cold weather talk and ya gotta throw a short joke in there about the poor man. All I can picture is George Costanza screaming about shrinkage and a frightened turtle!!!!!!

Um, yea how'd the work out for the Matt man? Not so well.

Packers by 13!

Born and bread a packer fan. Green and gold to the bone, yet living in Lion country. Ugh!

[freaky4tiki]

i still think the dude is being a big sissy. they don't get warm running all over the field? He doesn't like the giant heat blowers and the monstrous coats/hats/gloves? What about underarmour? is he like all bones and skin and he gets that cold? c'mon already... be a man.

[pbans]

I bought heated gear for cold weather motorcycle riding......
it's GLORIOUS......more power to him.....I hate being cold.
