White Shoes Defense - Rex Hospital Bobbleheads!

Rex Hospital Bobbleheads

Nov. 21, 2005

 A limited quantity will be available prior to Saturday's game against Maryland

Wolfpack fans, don't miss your last chance to go back in time with Wolfpack Football and Rex Hospital and remember the famed "white shoes defense." In 1967 the Pack's defensive players took their black cleats and painted them white as a bond of unity. The success of the "white shoes defense," lead by current head coach Chuck Amato, created a sense of pride in not only the defense, but in the offense and fans alike.

Make plans now to arrive early to the Maryland game Saturday, November 26. When you purchase a game day program for only $5, you will receive a coupon to redeem for a free "white shoes defense" bobblehead, available on the Carter-Finley Stadium concourse. The Chuck Amato bobblehead is available only while supplies last, so be sure to arrive early. Don't miss your chance to own this commemorative, limited edition bobblehead doll, compliments of Rex Hospital, the official healthcare provider of the Wolfpack!

Everett Silvertips Give Away 1000 Bobbleheads

Successful Silvertips haven't bobbled often

They are in only their third season, but the Everett Silvertips have plenty to celebrate when they look in the rearview mirror.

The Silvertips brought back a piece of their history when they gave away 1,000 Bryan Nathe bobblehead dolls before Tuesday's hockey game against the Regina Pats.

Nathe was the team's first captain, and he came to the expansion team in his final season of eligibility in the Western Hockey League on a mission.

He wasn't a flashy player and wasn't much of a threat to score, but he never took a shift off and demanded the same from his teammates.

Nathe was the perfect captain for a team that shocked the league by winning the U.S. Division and the Western Conference championships in its first season.

Nathe's bobblehead was the first of five doll giveaways scheduled this season. Other bobblehead commemoratives will feature likenesses of Jeff Harvey, Ivan Baranka, Riley Armstrong and Mitch Love.

Zoran Rajcic, Everett's director of operations, said the players selected for the bobbleheads were chosen in April and that it wasn't easy to narrow the list to five players from that first season.

"We wanted to choose guys who were prominent in our organization, who helped set the tone for the franchise," Rajcic said. "Looking back at that season, we had 21 plumbers who just grinded out wins by scoring goals that wouldn't make anyone's highlight reel. Bryan was chosen first because he was our captain..."

Daily Herald via Yahoo! News - Nov 18 7:38 AM
In early August, Jerry Wainwright postponed an interview to spend the day learning the inner workings of DePaul's computer system...

"The corner office overlooking Sheffield and Belden Avenues is busier than the man who works in it. Every centimeter of shelf space is occupied with pictures, quotes, toy cars, news clippings and an impressive and slightly disturbing bobblehead collection.

Aside from the standard pro athletes, Wainwright has bobbleheads of rappers Snoop Dogg and 50 Cent.

"(Players) look at me a little bit differently than they did when I was 30, 35, 40," said Wainwright, who turns 59 on Feb. 11. "But I don't ever want to lose the ability to talk to them and have fun...."
