Somehow, this post reminds me of the "messinwithsasquatch" commercials.

Those commercials are great

You guys are just jealous.

*cries softly*

I hear seersucker is going to be in this year.

Don't knock the seersucker. I'll definitely sport one during the summer.

Reebok, just shut up and cater to the Kid Rocks and the 50 Cents of the world.
I wonder if Reebok executives wear their silly sportswear to stockholders meetings or to product rollouts.
I refuse to wear a shirt and tie, but I will wear a suit to curry favor with my gal (she is worth it, I tell you).
Just one more reason to boycott Reebok and buy Walmart shoes.

So you are wearing a suit with no shirt or tie?

Classy.

I'd be more worried about what else he's not wearing

Well, yeah.

Actually this would be great thing to spread around the league. And also to start a campaign to boycott reebok if they do not let coaches wear suits. THis could begin a total nightmare for reebok. Sounds like fun.

NOLAN GETS TO WEAR SUITS FOR HOME GAMES

The National Football League and Reebok have relented; 49ers coach Mike Nolan will be permitted to wear a suit and tie for each of the team's eight regular-season home games in 2007.

Nolan wanted to wear the suit every week, but offered the home-games-only option as a compromise.

"Commissioner [Roger] Goodell took a harder look at it and he supported the issue," NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy said, according to Matt Maiocco of the Santa Rosa Press-Democrat . "In recognition of Nolan's desire to salute and honor his father, we expanded [the policy] to meet his request."

Nolan's father, Dick, wore a coat and tie when coaching in the NFL.

Last year, Nolan was allowed to wear a suit for two games. Jags coach Jack Del Rio did so, too. With the rule being expanded, it remains to be seen whether Del Rio makes the same request.

And, ultimately, we're hoping to see a starched collar and a navy blue tie peeking out from the top of the neck of Bill Belichick's hoodie.

Smart compromise.

Me. I'm liking Goodell a bunch.

I also love the suit thing. Even a loser like Del Rio looks good in one.

I need a tailor.

The flux capacitor! Of course! This looks perfectly natural.

Looking sharp.

Tom Landry would wear one each and every Sunday, and pay the fines. That man defined 'Class'.

 

[silverbear]

That's SOOOOO you, Lex...

However, as an aficionado of sartorial splendor, I have to throw a flag on you-- no white belt, matching the white shoes... just add a white tie, and you've got THE LOOK...

Good to know there is some common sense left in the NFL - I would like to see this extended top all coaches and all games but small steps people. Hopefully Del Rio will make the same request and I hope other HC follow suit. A suit identifies the manager/leader on the sideline and gives that undefinable class and elegance - just one area where the NFL can improve its image.
