The Early 90′s = Bad Redskins T’s
I’ve covered ugly Redskins T’s on this site before and the common theme always seems to be that the shirts originated in the early 90′s. From the era that brought us zubaz pants, I give you more awesomely bad T’s:
"Ain't No Doubt" this shirt is horrendous.
When I look at this shirt 'It's Tricky' by Run DMC starts playing in my head.
Creepy-looking mannequin sold seperately.
Not sure how/why the Tasmanian Devil was so popular?
Ok, this one's not so bad?
Cheers and Hail
Horrendous Redskins Shirt
A couple of months ago I held a contest to see if anyone owned an uglier Redskins shirt than the one that I personally own. While no one brought enough to the table to take the title from me then, I may have just stumbled upon a contender…
The shirt above celebrates the Redskins 1991 Super Bowl victory…although it’s hard to tell that with all the business going on here. We got newspaper headlines (that tell nothing) mixed up in a tie-dye/hip-hop collage…there are no words I have for this. I concede victory.
Would you like to be the proud owner of this shirt? It can be yours for the low-low “buy it now” price for $49.95 via Ebay auction. Imagine how much attention you’d get at the next Redskins tailgate party…I’ll wear my shirt and meet you there.
Cheers and Hail
Ugly Redskins Shirt Contest
I was surfing Ebay tonight looking for some vintage Redskins memorabilia when I realized that there’s an amazing amount of horrible Redskins shirts out there…and I’m not talking about Jeff George jerseys. I also realized that out of the many terribly awesome Redskins shirts, I may own the very worst best bad Redskins shirt ever. You can see by the pictures it’s the busiest, most informative shirt I’ve ever seen…when I wear it I feel like an old school walking football-reference. That being said, I’d love to see your bad Redskins shirts.
I’m having a contest to see who has the worst Redskins shirt among the readers of this blog. All you have to do is take a picture (or several pictures) of your bad Redskins shirt and email them to me at [email protected] . Include the words ‘shirt contest’ in the subject. There’s only one rule…you must either wear the shirt in the picture or have your picture taken while holding the shirt (I understand that the shirt may not fit anymore). Now, you may receive extra points if you take your picture wearing the shirt that no longer fits, seriously. The winner is going to receive another horrible shirt, an authentic Fatpickled t-shirt. The contest will be open for a week, send me those picks!
Cheers and Hail
2 Boo Or Not 2 Boo…That Is The ?
Things got a little ugly in the Redskins game Sunday…and I’m not referring to the play on the field. The Redskins were booed off the field at halftime, and to my amazement booed off the field at the end of the game. The internet message boards, blogs and Twitter pages are on fire with everyone’s two cents on the issue…it’s like that old saying “opinions are like assholes, everybody’s got one…and they all stink.” So here’s my stinky ass opinion.
First off, do you have the right as a fan to boo the Redskins at FedEx? Your damn straight you do. It’s your right as an American. And I don’t care if you’re in the 500 level and you work at McDonalds, or you have club seats and you make 6 figures. You paid for your ticket, if you want to boo the team go right ahead and do it.
Do I think it’s right to boo the Redskins at FedEx…hell no! I think you’re a complete ass to do so. If you’re a fan then you should be there to support your team, not to drag them down. I think it’s a disgrace that our fans did that to the Skins…they won the freakin game (I know it was an ugly and painful win.) Does anyone remember that the Ravens won a Super Bowl not too long ago winning ugly every week? A win is a win. The Redskins already have an opponent on the field, they don’t need another in the stands.
It’s my personal opinion that the Redskin’s fan support has been in a steady decline for years now. Who’s to blame? I’m not sure, but I don’t want to hear it’s the owner or ticket brokers, that’s a crock of shit. We have empty seats at FedEx and fans are routinely late to their seats at the start of the games and after halftime. We let fans from New York, Philly and Pittsburgh take over our house! We are now (allegedly) throwing and spitting on our players…are you f’ing kidding me? If you are that disgruntled and have season tickets sell them to a true fan.
I know frustration plays a part in this and I’m as frustrated as anybody. The play calling is suspect and we haven’t beaten anyone handily since I can remember. But, the players are playing hard and I see good things happening on the field…like the Skins winning! I would ask you this question, would you want someone coming into your office tomorrow and constantly telling you how much you suck at your job? Do you want Haynesworth hovering over your desk and giving you a ration of shit because you were late delivering a report? No…we have bosses to do that, and so do the players, they have coaches. And the coaches have someone that tells them they aren’t doing their job; it’s the GM and the owner.
So if your sitting in FedEx field in 2 weeks when the Redskins are playing the Bucs and you feel compelled to boo, just look down at the shirt your wearing. It’s probably burgundy and gold and has a number 47, 28, 81, 21 or 92 on it. You bought it because you’re a fan! I close each and every blog I write with the words “Cheers and Hail.” Redskins fans…spread the word.
Cheers and Hail
