ORSON AND PETE ARE TIGHT LIKE THAT
This morning we blogged over in the first person at the Sporting Blog that not only does Pete Carroll have a Facebook page, but that we had a friend request on the way for him. Fear us, haters: the request has been approved.

Suck it, world: Pete Carroll just approved our friend request. I’M SO JACKED. We mean, this can start slowly: first we’ll just write on each other’s Walls, then a little boogie boarding when we’re in town, then 3 a.m. push-up contests in South Central while we’re out saving inner-city youth together, then I’ll move in and be his Kato, you know, helping with the laundry and stuff, then yelling out “TOKYO!” with the defensive staff while we’re breaking down film and learning how to live on oxygen, good vibes, and two hours of sleep a night…
Or, you know, we could just write on each other’s Walls. We mean, it could just be internet friends. No pressure, Pete!

I’m still sad about Calvin Johnson spurning my friend request when he was a freshman. Did you ever get approved on a request to befriend Urban’s daughter? Don’t pretend like you wouldn’t “write on her wall.” Heh. Friend request to Spence imminent by me.

O., your third person personna is slipping…you must have intended “WE’RE SO JACKED!”. Having achieved such stratospheric levels in the blogosphere we must keep up appearances otherwise we are no different than the hoi polloi. That said, congratulations on becoming a “Friend of Pete” or FOP, for short. It must be a good thing for us…

3rd- really? I knew they were getting together for that ATF festival thingy in England (which has a kickass collection of bands), but a tour? Cool. Who’s next, Superchunk?

the chunk doesn’t tour much but they have shows now and then. it’s worth popping over to their website now and then just in case.
