Sittin' at home for Christmas break and I just caught the end of 60 Minutes. They were featuring Pete Carroll, head football coach for USC. If you don't believe altruism truly exists please take some time and watch this clip. This is a toast to all the "failed" seasons as a pro coach and the "2,500 e-mails, faxes and phone calls from alumni (haters)" sent to the USC Athletic Department including "a number of donors (haters) asking for Carroll's removal before they would donate again".
Watch the vid here:


Thanks for exemplifying a fine human being Coach Carroll.
