So, Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll participated in the ALS ice bucket challenge.
He then called on his fellow NFC West coaches to take on the ice bucket challenge.
Now the #IceBucketChallenge goes out to the other NFC West coaches! Jim Harbaugh, @CoachJeffFisher & @BruceArians… you’re up! #ALS

It started off just fine. Bruce Arians, head coach of the Cardinals, followed through on the challenge.
Go Bruce! Jim Harbaugh & Jeff Fisher are next! #NFCWest RT @BruceArians I took the #IceBucketChallenge to fight #ALS! http://t.co/gQoUUWgFER

Then, Jeff Fisher, head coach of the Rams, accepted Carroll’s challenge.
Props to Bruce Arians and Jeff Fisher for doing the #IceBucketChallenge! The NFC West is almost all in…

The only coach who didn’t accept Carroll’s challenge? Jim Harbaugh of the 49ers. By the sound of it, Harbaugh won’t accept it anytime soon.
Jim Harbaugh said he will accept the ice bucket challenge but not Pete Carroll’s challenge. He said his brother already extended challenge..

Harbaugh said he’s got a different challenge with Carroll: “I think you know what that one is,” he said.

God, I love this rivalry so damn much. On one side, we’ve got Jim Harbaugh, who is acting like a child by refusing Carroll’s challenge. Then, on the other side, we’ve got Pete Carroll toying with Harbaugh, knowing full well that Harbaugh wouldn’t take on his challenge. Then, Carroll tweets “The NFC West is almost all in…” EXCEPT YOU JIM!
That ellipsis is just so damn cheeky.
Well played, Pete.
