Pete Carroll Still Taking Heavy Criticism

It's no secret that Pete Carroll has been under heavy fire this week. A lot of the criticism has been justified, but Carroll has to be wondering when the questions about his call late in the Super Bowl will stop.

In case you have lived under a rock since Sunday, here's what you need to know: Carroll decided to pass from the one yard line with less than a minute to go in the Super Bowl. A touchdown would have given the Seahawks a likely Super Bowl victory. Instead, Seahawks' QB Russell Wilson threw a game-ending interception.

Since the call, the Seahawks and Pete Carroll have been flooded all week with questions about the call. The questions have to be painful, obviously, but Carroll has recently released a comment that may lead to more questions.

Carroll's comment was that he cried after the Super Bowl loss. Now, many think that this is not a big deal. Many believe that crying is totally understandable after losing the biggest game imaginable. However, there are still plenty of others out there that believe there is no place for crying in sports.

Regardless of your own personal opinion, expect Carroll to be asked a few more times about his salty tears of defeat.
