Like I mentioned earlier, most people that think he's a "douche" are likely blaming him for the Reggie Bush debacle. I find it humorous that people believe that Pete Carroll *knew* that an agent had given his parents $180k worth of benefits, yet looked the other way.

$100? Sure. $1,000? Maybe. $180k? No way.

For those that aren't aware as to why USC forfeited a title and why Bush had to give back his Heisman and why they received such massive sanctions, here's why:

Bush received lavish gifts from two fledgling sports marketers hoping to sign him. The men paid for everything from hotel stays and a rent-free home where Bush's family apparently lived, to a limousine and a new suit when he accepted his Heisman in New York in December 2005.

I've always thought he came off like a pretty good guy.

Also, Cable cracks me up in that video. That seems like it'd be a fun staff.

Thats one of the first things i think of when it come to the hawks, players, coaches etc... they always look like they're having fun.

Thats a pretty cool way to run a team if you can keep them disciplined at the same time, imo.

Maybe he IS a douche, i dont know, but i do know he totally changed my tune about him not being NFL caliber... his teams win, and have fun doing it.

And that's what matters.

Anyone who says he's a douche would play for him in a second if they got the chance.

I think he's a pretty decent guy, isn't he the first coach that tried out that player who was falsely accused of rape? Yeah... That's something a douche would definitely do....

I mean yeah, the NCAA debacle that some pointed out doesnt look good at all, downright douchey you might say... but then others countered with the argument that the NCAA is so full of shit its eyes are brown, and i buy that for sure.

Yeah, bringing in that guy who did prison time was a very nice thing to do, not a douche move at all.

You and Dane should probably go ahead and calm your bitch tits. You don't have to be a bad person to be a douche. There are actually a multitude of ways to become a resident of Douchedom and a lot of them don't even stem from malevolent actions.

For example, you could be a douche just for wearing a neon green Polo with the collar popped.

Don't hate, bros. It's science.

Idiot.

Don't you live like in ****ing Atlanta? What the **** would you know about Pete Carroll?

He's a national icon. There's this little thing called the Internet. Oh, and cable television. Yeah, those things allow you to see what's going on across the country. Even the world!

Sorry I didn't spend some quality one-on-one time with the guy in the back of his Benz like you apparently did, you smug prick.

Well, it wasn't first.

LMAO That's hilarious.

Good work, boys. Pete Carroll is a douche. Open and shut case.

That's great, Carrol is a good dude.

You're a ****ing reerun.

Seriously.

He's a national icon but he's a douche? WTF?

And the internet is always right.

LMAO

And what makes you think he wasn't in my Merc at the time?

:p
