It has come to my attention that my soccer coach, Bob Whitfield, former NFL player, is freakin AWESOME! Of course, I already knew this, but,
still. He was drafted 1st round (eighth overall) for football and in college he was a starter as a freshman. He is the founder and former C.E.O of a RECORDING BUSINESS, that has recorded/mixed over 20 gold/platinum albums and the business has worked with T.I., Nelly, 50 Cent, Snoop Dogg, Beyoncé, Whitney Houston, Cher, and Madonna. MADONNA. AND MORE! He is also in Stanford's Hall of Fame <and he missed our tournament a couple years ago because of it>. His ex-wife was on 'The Real Housewives of Atlanta' seasons 1-4 . He is freakin AWESOME and super cool.
I gave him the nickname 'Coach Bob.' Pretty epic, right? On the first day of practice fall 2010 he showed up and said he was 'Coach Whitfield' and I, being the chick with no boundaries that I am, asked what his first name was in which he answered 'Bob.' This, of course, mad me squeal 'COACH BOB' and I introduced him to everyone as 'Coach Bob' and it stuck. It's a gift, what can I say? Ok. This post is starting to feel creepy. And stalker-ish. Ah well. Here's his wikipedia page
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bob_Whitfield. And here is a pic of our soccer team at a game with him
He's the big guy in all black. I asked him why he wears all black once, because he legit always wears all black long-sleeves and pants and stuff <EVEN IN LIKE SUMMER> and he said it was because 'He likes to sweat.' Also, on the first day of practice, he was really into us 'Getting in shape' and he made us do squats and stuff.
LOVE YA, COACH BOB!
