Prime Time Vanity
Peter King's weekly love letter to the New England Patriots, otherwise known as Monday Morning Quarterback, is usually a pretty good read. He has good access to NFL teams and writes in a nice, casual style. Sure, he's wrong a lot and has an unnatural infatuation with Brett Favre to go along with his burning desire for Team Belichek, but it's a good weekly article.
In this week's edition, in one of his throwaway parts towards the end, he has an incredible stat. According to Deion Sanders' personal tailor, Prime Time owns 1,900 suits.
Nineteen hundred!
He squeezes them all into his 2,500 square feet closet.
That stat blows me away. I'm not I've owned 1,900 pieces of clothing combined in my entire life.
He could wear a different suit every day of the year and not repeat a choice for over five years.
If you figure about $1,000 per suit - I'm sure most are custom made - that's about $2 million worth of suits.
No wonder the man unretired. You can't afford that kind of vanity on a broadcaster's salary.
