Now, that's one costly snowball. New York Jets defensive end Shaun Ellis was fined $10,000 by the NFL for throwing snow at fans after his team's loss Sunday at Seattle. Several fans threw snowballs at New York players and staff as they walked off the field after the Seahawks' 13-3 victory. As he approached the walkway leading to the locker room, Ellis reached into a pile of snow, picked up a large chunk and tossed it into the stands at Qwest Field, appearing to hit at least a few fans. No one was believed to have been injured. Ellis said yesterday that he wasn't angry at the time, and there was no malicious intent on his part. "It was all in fun," he said. Jets coach Eric Mangini said Ellis wouldn't face additional discipline from the Jets, and the defensive captain would play Sunday in the regular-season finale at home against Miami. \ \ \ Bengals won't raise prices After a dramatic downturn in the team's performance, which mirrors the dramatic downturn in the economy, the Cincinnati Bengals announced they will not raise ticket prices for next season. The Bengals have sold out 44 consecutive home games, including the season finale Sunday against Kansas City, but thousands of tickets have gone unused this season, as the team has tumbled to a 3-11-1 record and last place in the AFC North. The growing fan frustration and uncertain economy could threaten the sellout streak next season. The average ticket price at Paul Brown Stadium is $71.17, more than $5 below the league average. -- Scott Priestle spriestle@dispatch.com \ Pooch punts Running back Jason Wright was placed on injured reserve by the injury-riddled Cleveland Browns because of an ankle injury. ... James Harris resigned as the Jacksonville Jaguars' personnel chief.
