I think it would be pretty sweet to see a bunch of shirts this year with nothing but a giant "V" on the front, and on the back put either "Don't Give Up, Don't Ever Give Up." or "We Believe"

10/17/2007 2:18:46 PM

^ seconded... although i would put the quotation small on the left breast and the giant V on the back. But I just like bigger logos on the back in general, just a weird thing about me.

10/17/2007 2:39:31 PM

i'm in for a large in 83 and 74

10/17/2007 3:01:09 PM

haha at first we had the idea to do all the past 5 coaches, with sid at the bottom

and then we were like wait we'd have to include herb

so then we thought maybe we could just roll with

NORM&
JIMMY&
LES&
****&
SIDNEY

but it would be kinda lame looking

10/17/2007 3:47:51 PM

so lame you shouldn't have told us about it

10/17/2007 4:54:23 PM

i thought when someone mentioned the blazer idea, it was more like a tuxedo t-shirt only a red blazer?

10/17/2007 5:00:25 PM

step up and list the current team bitches, no resting on past laurels from when most of you werent even alive...


have some confidence in the current team and put the starters on there

that's what i was saying. i didn't actually want a shirt w/ a picture of a full blazer on it.

and ^^^^, i thought that exact same thing.

10/17/2007 5:15:51 PM

yeah I thought that font looked a little too thick/bold

10/17/2007 6:41:25 PM

^^ you mean like this:



but instead of the gay tux stuff, a shirt and tie or something?

10/17/2007 8:35:57 PM

that would be pretty awesome too red coat, red tie, with the shirt screen printed where the red isnt

10/17/2007 9:04:05 PM

^^ precisely.

^ make it happen.

10/17/2007 9:18:04 PM

one awesome project at a time

10/17/2007 9:47:35 PM

^^^ want that

10/18/2007 7:51:04 AM

Hey guys, thanks for the support.

10/18/2007 8:16:55 AM

I think having the student section in a bunch of faux red blazer t-shirts would be an awesome idea. It'd be unique not to mention look pretty funny/kick ass on TV.

10/18/2007 9:57:54 AM

blazer t-shirts is a great idea.

10/18/2007 10:02:18 AM

"hey, we're winning, this must not be football"

10/18/2007 10:24:28 AM

I'm good for a '74 and an '83 shirt. (XL, if 100% cotton)

I don't know exactly what yall have planned on, but I think that I would rather have a long-sleeve t-shirt...

1) Because most of bball season is during the cold months
2) Because I am now in VA, and it's starting to get cold

10/18/2007 11:50:41 AM

who the fuck wears a long sleeve shirt in the RBC center?

10/18/2007 12:01:39 PM

im good for a '74 & '83 shirt. L por favor

10/18/2007 12:12:12 PM

This idea you have of long sleeves, it is awful.

10/18/2007 12:12:51 PM

no shit

no long sleeves, and probably no hoodies

STRAIGHT TSHIRTS ALL DAY SON

10/18/2007 1:11:09 PM

XXL '83 plez

I'll rock this as much, if not more than my Not Red shirt.

Funny thing is, I'm getting ready to move to Tempe, AZ. So I hope I run into Herb out somewhere in Tempe, while I wear this shirt.

10/18/2007 2:44:12 PM

A simple "no thanks on the long sleeves" would have sufficed.

10/18/2007 2:54:09 PM

we're making tshirts, not clothing you for the winter dawg

10/18/2007 3:26:17 PM

any idea when the shirts will be ready?

btw- i would buy a hoody if they were made. but i definitely want a t-shirt.

10/18/2007 3:36:13 PM

i just got what i believe to be the correct font emailed to me today, and so ill try and work on it tonight

greg i believe is out of town till the weekend, but im sure we could crank up sometime next week provided i get the design tweaked right. obviously we will definitely aim for before basketball season starts mid-nov. but i think we can definitely get them out before that

Just imagine if Herb hadn't came here and we had Les(s) Robinson for 10 more years.

Sid wouldn't have shit to work with if it weren't for Herb so why still the hate?

10/18/2007 4:15:35 PM

come on, we don't really need to do this.

10/18/2007 4:27:19 PM

the same reason i dont keep pictures of boring ex girlfriends who were terrible in bed around the house




here's the final deal, in all its glory...made with the font from the guy who does the DC based shirts for the blog he writes...



im pretty satisfied. now to get it in illustrator and get something going

stay tuned for further ordering and/or buying at the games info

10/18/2007 4:28:00 PM

im not very good with illustrator, which is the preferred screen printer's file, but i'll see what i can do to get a blazer design going might have to contract that out to someone with skillz

10/18/2007 4:29:17 PM

just keep it really simple.

[Edited on October 18, 2007 at 4:43 PM. Reason : i don't think i can do it though]

10/18/2007 4:36:22 PM

admittedly this is a very rough draft i did in ms paint in like 10 mins

but if the shirt was red, you'd need to print in two colors (black and white), and it would be pretty detailed...would probably get pretty expensive, but it's possible to do, sort of like carving a pumpkin...you screen where the tie and coat isnt


click on the pic to see it fullsize so you can see the detail

i suppose it could be done simpler, but i dont know if i'd wear it if it was

[Edited on October 18, 2007 at 6:22 PM. Reason : .]


i think if i try again after i think about it i can get it looking better and more simple

[Edited on October 18, 2007 at 6:23 PM. Reason : .]

10/18/2007 6:20:01 PM

nooooooo no no no.

you're getting way too complicated. at least for what i had in mind.

i'll make a shitty version later.

10/18/2007 6:28:55 PM

im only good for one good idea at a time

someone else needs to pick up the slack on that if you guys want that too

XL- '83

That's AWESOME

ps...I love my This is not red shirt...

10/18/2007 10:46:04 PM

ok I sent the illustrator file to Greg to get to his printer when he gets back from fishing

hopefully we can crank up on these next week if he has time...

10/19/2007 7:35:32 PM

also



just came today

10/19/2007 7:40:08 PM

is more like what i had in mind. obviously someone would have to do a better job w/ it, but nice and simple.

10/19/2007 11:49:27 PM

bttt

10/22/2007 12:36:17 PM

^^ That looks like shit. The other one looks much better.

10/22/2007 12:39:30 PM

they're both awful. it's a very difficult concept to translate from MS paint to a tshirt

i can envision it, but large ms paint pixels can only look so good

10/22/2007 1:09:00 PM

more than likely it would end up looking like a more refined version of this:



though not much more...

again, just fucking around with ms paint

maybe would look better with long sleeves since its supposed to be a jacket, but i find it funnier if left as a short sleeve red shirt.

10/22/2007 1:21:36 PM

^ yeah that looks good

10/22/2007 1:23:53 PM

aha.. that Outkast shirt is awesome.

I was looking at the picture trying to find it, but kept thinking that's an 'Appetite for Destruction' knockoff shirt.... then I saw the Outkast one.

10/22/2007 1:34:26 PM

^^^thats awesome.

10/22/2007 1:38:44 PM

that wouldn't be that hard to screen print at all

the hard part would be figuring out how to do it in illustrator. but if people want both, i could work on it...

[Edited on October 22, 2007 at 1:52 PM. Reason : im bored at work i could probably make a better looking proposal]

10/22/2007 1:40:31 PM

i'd buy that last one
