Pete Carroll might be going senile

Carroll seemed unusually “amped” and “jacked” and “crazy” Saturday night. That is to say he was Pete Carroll, only more extreme.

At one point, according to several players in attendance, Carroll was advising safety Kam Chancellor, and he started to reminisce about his days as a free safety at Pacific, all his greatest hits. He then walked to the back of the room, away from the team, and everyone wondered what had happened and where he had gone. Next thing they knew, they saw a shock of white hair barreling toward the front of the room, gathering steam straight toward … an unsuspecting whiteboard.

Carroll never stopped. He never even slowed. He tackled the board the way that Chancellor decimates unsuspecting running backs, with such force that that the board detached from its base, broke into pieces and landed on the ground.

“We already know he’s the craziest, kookiest coach around,” cornerback Richard Sherman said. “But I was like, he must be getting senile now.”

“I was like, he’s trippin’,” receiver Doug Baldwin said. “Like, this old man is trying to hurt himself.”

“Of all the crazy s--- that Pete has done,” added defensive end Michael Bennett, “this is Top 1, probably.”
