Pete Doherty Has A New Goal

We've already wondered aloud: If Kanye wants someone to be his black Kate Moss, does that mean he's the black Pete Doherty? Something to add to the equation: What are the real-life Kate 'n' Pete supposed to do now that a line in a rap song makes more headlines than the lines they snort? Well, on top of a new song (and new roommate!), Pete has a new drug, one that won't make him sick, and one that feels a tad more productive than supplying his cat with crack.

Coaching soccer!

Who knows if he can make it through a season without relapsing, but lest you think he's some sorta dribbling poseur, check out this video of Pele Pete scoring a goal in a celebrity soccer match.

If soccer can get people off the streets maybe it can get Pete off the drugs?

Dearest America,

'Soccer' is faux pas, correctly pronounced, 'football.'

The new song sounded promising.
