Great article on ESPN on Don Cherry (http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/eticket/story?page=doncherry).

If you haven't heard of him, or even if you have, it's a good read.

Great article Hoser - I haven't had too may opportunities to hear Grapes speak on "Coach's Corner" but it's amazing how an entire country tunes into him every week to hear what he says. I liken him a little bit to Howard Stern in a way - you know, the people that love him what to hear what he's gonna say next... and so do the people that hate him. You can't fault him on his passion towards the sport tho - we need more like him in that respect whether they are Canadian or Yankee.

Cheers!

I don't know if down there you have anything comparable, but up here, when the music intro for Coach's Corner comes on, it is the only time that a room full of guys can tell their wives/girlfriends to shut up, and the evil eye isn't shot across the room. They all know that when Cherry speaks, you listen.

I've never seen anything like it.
