Apparently no one. At least not for $5,000 a pop. If we hadn't been rifling through the dusty digital closet that is eBay while we were supposed to be working, we may have never known that The Cos is auctioning off his Coogi sweaters -- those unforgettably blinding sweaters that made the curmudgeonly Dr. Huxtable all the more huggable on The Cosby Show. While the proceeds go to charity, looks like Cliff's having a tough time finding someone attached enough to the show to cough up $5,000 for the opening bid. Now that asymmetrical "Gordon Gatrelle" designer knockoff Denise made for Theo? That's another story entirely.
Anyway, Dr. Cosby's sweaters got us remembering Coogi and more VIP sweaters, which brings us to...
+ Whiz kid producer Boom Bip, who's got an entire song -- appropriately entitled, "Coogi Sweater" -- devoted to Coogis. (You'll like his stuff if you're into Chromeo, Barcelona and/or Crystal Castles.)
+ Ace Hood and T-Pain's "Cash Flow" video; you can spot a she-Coogi toward the end, when Rick Ross slays while wearing that nearly life-sized gold medallion of his own head.
+ The awesome Leslie Hall has built an entire career devoted to bad sweaters, gold pants and other fashion don'ts.
+ They're probably not Coogi, but a few of the members of New Edition rock some intense knitwear in "Mr. Telephone Man"
+ And, while it's definitely not about a Coogi, we'd be fools not to revisit Weezer's timeless "Undone (The Sweater Song)" video. Plus: watch Weezer's Artist of the Week videos here.
+ Finally: an entire website devoted to Coogi. Thank God.
