No Snow Angels Allowed, Welker!

by Tom Ziller • Dec 21, 2008 5:50 PM EST

At this point, it seems like the Patriots are competing to see who can get tagged with the most absurd $10,000 fine for excessive celebration. A few weeks ago, tight end Ben Watson showed love for his pregnant wife by turning the football into a fetus (not literally) after a score. Today, the refs penalized Wes Welker for celebrating with ... a snow angel.


Maybe Roger Goodell can speed up the typical five-day fine process and delivers Welker's $10K invoice by Thursday. Bah, humbug.
