Coaches “Drip”
DTA Nation,
Happy Tuesday #WorstDayOfTheWeek and today, I am getting shredded for my shoe game “Drip”. Now I want to say, I have never claimed to have a strong shoe game, style in general, or definitely be any kind of Man Rocket. I know I am probably a solid 5 on a good day and my shoes fit my style of play on the ice and field, gritty as a third liner. Now there are a few coaches in my eyes have some solid coaching “drip” as the kids and Sam Kepner say, let’s take a look….and as always, let me know who I missed since I’m clueless.
5. When I think of the word drip, which I don’t think about too often and you hopefully won’t hear me ever say or type again, I feel like Coach Prime comes right to mind. He’s got a good lookin hat, some sick shades, and a good fit always. I’m sure his shoe game is on point with his fit. He wouldn’t be able to coach lacrosse in MN with his Chain(s) but that doesn’t take away from how good he looks on game day.
4. Don Cherry. I could leave it at that. If you know, you know. If you are a “hockey guy” than you better know. The fits on this guy are incredible.
3. Coach K. You are probably thinking Coach K from Duke, but my #1 commenter Turnbull knows which Coach K I am talking about, and that is Coach Kolon of Detroit Mercy. The drip on this guy week to week is incredible. Might have a cut off sweatshirt one week and the next week be cleaned up lookin good with a vest. You never know what he’s going to be rocking on the sideline, but you just know it’s going to work.
2. This is only #2 because this is a lacrosse podcast, so a lacrosse coach has to be my #1. Without the lacrosse bias, Herb Brooks should be #1 on any coaches drip power rankings. His suits were ON POINT. The hair was always dialed. I wonder how many suits he ripped mid game with how intense he was on the bench. If I was to take a good hard look at my coaches drip this off season, Herb Brooks is who I will be studying and looking at emulating.
1 If you know the man, you know what I’m talking about. You can’t get much better, much cleaner, much crisper drip than Joe Spallina. His intensity matches the fit. Joe isn’t there to have fun and work hard, he’s there to win. Look good, play good. On game day, watch out. You are fighting to be the 2nd best looking guy probably in the world because Joe takes it to another level.
I now know what Ted is talking about. These power rankings are hard. Don’t get me wrong, I did enjoy ranking other mens drip and looks, but it’s not always easy being a key board warrior. Regardless, let me know in the comments how clueless I am.
P-Mac
