The results of our informal and totally unscientific poll, counted through the comments section of last night’s report from practice on whether or not you’d like to see the Seattle Seahawks wear the alternative, green jerseys, are totaled.

And, not so surprisingly, the green jerseys were voted down.

But not by much, as folks in the comment section voted 17-10 against the jerseys, with more people than I thought actually saying they would like to see the lime green jerseys at Qwest Field on Sunday.

Must be that Sounders fever bubbling over to the Seahawks fan base.

Mike Florio of ProFootballTalk.com takes another shot at T.J. Houshmandzadeh in his 10-pack on old guys in new uniforms with big expectations.

Here’s an excerpt.

The former Bengal has been aiming high and talking big regarding his potential impact in Seattle.
Some believe the career No. 2 receiver won’t be the same without Chad Ochocinco to draw double coverage.

So it remains to be seen whether Houshmandzadeh will emerge as a threat for the Seahawks, or whether he’ll be the next Alvin Harper and/or Peerless Price.

For now, I’ll assume it’s the latter.
