They didn’t have any “Co-Driver” jerseys in stock.
This will have to do. #gopackgo
Have we screwed up already? A special video response to Trishia Hipp’s commentary.
January 21, 2011 1 Comment
I crafted this response to a Facebook comment from Trishia Hipp of Esko, Minnesota, commenting on our last video that introduced our Facebook friends to Twitter. Seriously though. We need you on the Twitter, the Facebook, and at our website http://www.mbteams.com if we are going to take care of business.

Get Your Twitter Accounts Fired Up!
January 20, 2011 6 Comments
We are less than 2 weeks until race time. Come race time, we’ll be moving over to Twitter in order to “fuel” the car. (More details later.) For now, we need all of our supporters to fire up their Twitter accounts and follow Todd (http://twitter.com/tsand) and John (http://twitter.com/ijohnpederson).
The video below is for the normal people new to Twitter (http://twitter.com). Thanks.
Wonder what John thinks of all this hair?

PLEASE NOTE: My shirt is a University of South Carolina Gamecocks shirt and was not intended to be offensive… unless you’re a Clemson fan.
My hair is a good luck charm for Packers Nation and will be “professionally” cut* after the Packers win the NFC Championship game on Sunday. Much like a baby-faced Favre pranced around the Superdome, I’ll hit Dallas ready to celebrate a Green Bay victory with a new look.

The #MBTweetRace “Round Two” Video
January 17, 2011 20 Comments
Many of you have asked me how this all happened… or even more bluntly, “why in the world did they choose you?”
I’d like to think it’s my hair and John’s good looks, but I do believe a large part of the credit goes to the video entry we had to submit during Round Two.
Please note:
My wife thinks this video is extremely cocky and I totally agree. I’m not the type of person to boast of my possessions or achievements, so this is a bit out of character. Then again, this aint no church social, it’s a competition…
A huge apology to Gary Vaynerchuk, Cory Booker, the Today Show, Ellen DeGeneres, Late Night with Jimmy Fallon and Nolan Gould. I used your kindness for my gain. Shame on me, however, I was (and still am) fighting more powerful forces to WIN this thing.
Total Twitter followers (as of 10:30am Central time 01/17/11):
- Team CL: 37,067
- Team E: 10,433
- Team GL: 8,568
- Team S: 5,536 <<< that’s us
And, yes, I do realize that when engaging the social web it’s NOT a numbers game. In fact, I wouldn’t trade our 5,536 followers for their 56,000+, serious, YOU are the reason we WIN this thing.
Thanks for playing!
