Unverified Voracity Gets Served

regarding the shirts.  I think a certain hobo owes me an apology...

Bummer, however if I set up a shop in Tijuana and make MGOSHIRTS is there any chance the University can do anything about it?  There's no way all these awesome designs can go to waste.  I'm probably not industrious enough to do this but if we can do some "off-shore" shirt making and throw the cash back at Brian that would benefit all of us.

Man I feel like the University is tempting the karma gods by pulling all those shirts.  And right before I made my "He16man" purchase!  Dammit.

Am I right, University of Michigan?

Maybe I'm dumb....what is C&D ?

we still ought to be able to get a lot of shirts back, like the "space, bitches, space" shirt and the shoelace shirt.  using his nickname should not be enough for them to prevent you from selling the shirt.  in the meantime, sad face.

Thank you.

Glad to hear several will make a return. I still needs a "Worst State Ever."

...why were they pulled?

And I wouldn't have linked that Breaston Article, to give it pub:

Q: OK, let's move on. Do you remember when you got your first football uniform?
A: It was peewee and I got No. 16. It's funny, though. I was a soccer player and one day we were racing and one of my old coaches said, "Do you want to play some football?"

Q: So what did you say?
A: I said, "Yeah, but I just need a dollar so I can get some french fries and a pop from the concession stands." So he gave me the dollar and I ran home and told my mom I wasn't playing soccer no more.

Q: Hey, that turned out to be your first contract. What if he hadn't given you the buck?
A: I'd probably still be playing soccer. But I like baseball, too. I played that a lot and like to watch it.

Who'd have guessed all this time he was ineligible at Michigan for taking payment to play...

(I'm Kidding! Though, the way the NCAA is going nowadays....)

I assume that the Shoelace shirt falls under the anything player-specific, no matter how oblique, is out unless it's an officially-licensed #16 jersey? 

I really liked that shirt, was just slow on the trigger I guess. 

Denard has big triceps

So, the University can make $$ of Denard and other "amateurs," but NOBODY ELSE HAD BETTER DARE TRY!!!!

/steps off soapbox, shakes head.

Just make a sure with a Michigan helmet with dreadlocks coming out of the back that says "Disregard Shoelaces, Obtain Yards."

That'd work pretty well.

at the school over the shirts. I highly doubt they cared about the rather innocent shirtsMGoStore offered. Furthermore, I'm sure they hate  to upset a place like Underground Printing. Finally, they don't give jack squat about that little bit of cash.

The problem comes in where if they don't C&D on every little potential infringement, they lose legal standing when they DO need to. Then some jackhole comes along and has a shirt where a silhouette of a guy in a 16 jersey is fucking the silouhette of Brutus Buckeye in the ass, and they don't have good legal ground to make them stop.

My meme finally made it to the main page, hooray!

Although I don't know why "upnextinsports.com" decided to toss a watermark on it....

I can (reluctantly) understand why the Shoelace and HE16MAN shirts would have to be discontinued . . . but what possible justification could there be for pulling the Worst State Ever shirt?  State outlines can't possibly be copyrightable material.

...totally missed the best thing to know about UMass.

U-Mass, by The Pixies. It's educational.

For Steve Breaston to continue to be a fan of his boyhood hometown baseball team says alot about him. And he wasn't around to see Clemente and Stargell and the glory days. That's loyalty.

You know you have made it when the big boys send out the C&D orders.

Let's hear it for corporate americur! (You can't spell corporate without RAT.)

Way to always take from the little guy.  I was going to purchase many of those shirts and now there is no chance of doing so.  I hate you NCAA.

to avoid further C&D hassles, be sure to keep your goats off of your roof. Who knew?

Using the players names was what made them unique, though I understand the University's position. Does that mean my 'Vlad the Impaler' is now a collecter's item?

Should have gotten the 'Death Roh' as well....

Even if MGoBlog couldn't actively promote it, shouldn't there be room on the internet for a site that features non-officially-licensed material?

(Sort of like the 'back room' of the Great Divide... that store in Flint that sold the 'half-UM' - 'half-MSU' stuff?

Isn't is crazy how things that are seemingly unimportant can cause such an upheaval and disappointment. I realize it's probably copyright stuff but in the grand outlook of life what does it really matter?
