    Idea for a T-Shirt

    OK, my wife thinks I'm nuts but I've got an idea for a t-shirt. Problem is, I don't have the screening equipment or the motivation quite frankly, to go print them up.

    So, if anyone out there has the ability/desire to get these going, please do...all I ask is that I get a couple of free ones.

    Here's my idea:

    We've all seen the "Cornfed" Iowa T-shirts with the tiger hawk on them correct? Well, what I want to see is a Red t-shirt, yellow tiger hawk that simply reads "Inbred". A nice Go State or something on the back would be nice just to make it clear it is pro-ISU.

    I spoke with T-Galaxy and they didn't think it would pass the "licensing" folks and that's as far as I plan to take it.

    Thoughts?

    Here's my idea:

    We've all seen the "cornfed" Iowa T-shirts with the tiger hawk on them correct? Well, what I want to see is a Red t-shirt, yellow tiger hawk (or something that clearly identifies it as an ISU shirt) that simply reads "Inbred".

    First, I've seen worse things on T-shirts.

    Second, I don't like it and here are the reasons:

    If you are saying Iowa fans are Inbred...isn't that kind of saying Iowans are inbred since Iowa fans are just a cross section of the state just ISU fans are.

    You are now wearing a shirt that says "inbred". I think it could be misinterpreted easily and, therefore, make you look like a wierdo.

    Just my 2 cents.

    You have to take it somewhere that isn't so strict on the licensing stuff. There are smaller town print shops around the state that would do something like that....maybe the one in Breda that Mac used to advertise for?

    Re: Idea for a T-Shirt

    Tgalaxy said ISU wouldnt allow me to use my HWKIH8R license plate avatar picture to make a t shirt. So i went online. It was pretty easy, and not to expensive. It gets cheaper the more you order.

    Re: Idea for a T-Shirt

    Here is my unsolicited opinion.

    I always thank those Hawkeye fans that where a t-shirt saying "ISWHO?" for promoting ISU and getting our name out there.

    I think you would be doing the same by having a tigerhawk no matter how much you try to insult.

    This idea is slightly better than the "Jump to Conclusions" mat.
