Surprise Visit
Actor Will Ferrell just made a surprise visit to a team meeting dressed as the title character from his latest movie, ``Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby.'' Maybe even more surprising, USC coach Pete Carroll entered the meeting on a motorcycle surrounded by smoke and dressed in a NASCAR drivers' outfit. Then from a side entrance, Ferrell emerged.
Ferrell is a USC graduate and has previously attended practices. The team saw Ferrell's movie after the visit.

i was just thinking about Jamere Holland. so he just had surgery on his shoulder that he injured while practicing with the team. i wonder since he has not been cleared yet: (1) does USC face any sort of liability for his injury? (2) can USC actually pay for/perform the surgery even though he is not cleared?
just random thoughts that popped in my head.

That's to put it simply - awesome!! I guess Pete's taking a new approach after he got so much flak with the Lendale prank last year.

I'm shocked that Snoop didn't also make a surprise appearance "surrounded by smoke" ... of course, followed closely behind by IdiotRon who likes to pick up the Dogg's droppings.
