Pete Carroll Will Coach UCLA - And USC * "I've got tons of energy!!"

Pete Carroll Will Coach UCLA - And USC

Dec 3, 2007

Los Angeles - USC football coach Pete Carroll has reached an agreement in principle to take over the program of arch-rival UCLA, but the big news is that he will continue to coach the Trojans as well.

"I know people may have their doubts, but I've got tons of energy," said Carroll, who will coach the Trojans in next month's Rose Bowl. He dismissed the immediate outcry of fans of both schools who believe coaching two programs will create impossible conflicts of interest.

"I'm a fair guy and I'm an honest guy, and I will do my best for both," Carroll said, adding that he was still figuring out how he would handle next fall's USC-UCLA game.

"At this particular juncture, I think I will probably coach UCLA in the first half, and USC in the second, but that will depend on how the game is going.”

“Why not?” said UCLA Athletic Director Dan Guerrero. “He’s

got a decent track record and we’ll save money on relocation expenses.”

In related news, Ohio State coach Jim Tressel has been in touch about reaching a similar deal with the University of Michigan.

After a rousing speech by Roger Clemens proclaiming his innocence to felony charges for lying to Congress, supporters in Katy, TX reported a flock of flying pigs rose from a nearby tree, circled the crowd and flew off into the sunset.

"However, this is a wakeup call," said Clemens after his perjury indictment. "I'm going to look closely at my lying."

Politico is reporting that former GOP House Majority Leader and fellow Texan Tom DeLay will advise Clemens, pro-bono, on how to employ smirking sanctimony to deny wrongdoing at his upcoming trial.

"We have enough potty-mouthed motherf..kers in the NFL," said NBC analyst Tony Dungy in blasting Jets' coach Rex Ryan for hiring former Jet Blue flight attendant Steven Slater as an Assistant Food Services Coach.

Responding to a tidal flow of fan protests over the "boring and stupid" New Meadowlands Stadium name, New Jersey officials announced the facility will be called "East Rutherford Just Off The Jersey Turnpike Field."

"It has nothing to do with Brad personally," commented Brett Favre about reports of a rift with Minnesota Viking's coach Brad Childress. "I just don't trust anyone who's bald and wears glasses."

World Extreme Cagefighting has applied to the International Olympic Committee to add cagefighting as an official event for the 2012 games in London.

"If he'd been my mother-in-law, none of this would have happened," said Francisco Rodriguez about the incident which resulted in his arrest for assaulting his father-in-law at Citi Field ... and a season-ending injury.

"My hand hurts," said Dustin Johnson after failing to write "I will not ground my club in bunkers anymore" 1,000 times on Whistling Straits' main blackboard. "He's 11 sentences short," said a PGA spokesman in announcing Johnson's immediate suspension. "Rules are rules."
