I think if the the MGoStore decided to print up some anti-Freep shirts, we should brainstorm some ideas:
F*ck the Free Press (simple, straight to the point)
Do Not Read The Detroit Free Press
Michael Rosenberg punches dolphins (borrowing from BOX house banner)
Michael Rosenberg pees sitting down
suggestions?
Here are a few...
I actually have a couple of designs ready to go.
Anybody know how to turn them into shirts if I send them to you?
"Fuck (in the Freep masthead font) the Detroit Free Press" (in lower case). Blue print on maize shirt.
"Fail.Press" (in Freep masthead type). Maize print on blue shirt.
"Drew Sharpton" (an appropriate photoshop conglomeration).
No shirt
Why give them advertising? That's worse than linking to them.
Couldn't agree more. Any
Couldn't agree more. Any press for them, is good press, as they have so poignantly displayed over the past year.
Exactly!
... I am so sick of the incessant whining about that paper. It befits a lame JUCO, not Michigan. The F-rag is down to home delivery just 3 days per week, it will probably be dead in a while anyway. I wouldn't extend them any courtesies, but I wouldn't freeze them out, either. It only encourages them.
Seriously, just win on the field.
100% Agree
No shirts. No interviews. Be cordial, be above it, hold a grudge, sure, but be professional. Handle it like Michigan Men and Women. No additional punishment beyond stopping subscriptions and refusing interviews. Then never bring it up again.
Get back to the business at hand, which is winning.

Agreed. So how about: "Michigan, Where
Unsubstantiated Reporting Goes to Die"
Your opinion has no value.
Don't go anti-freep
go pro-michigan and you have a chance... something like:
"Fort Schembechler. Re-opening for tours Summer 2010"
"So I come out of Ohio Stadium after we beat the Buckeyes, and right there on the hood of my friend's car, some one took a dump, in the shape of an 'O'. no shit. Oh, sorry, bad pun."
Fort Schembechler isn't open for tours
They're only open for football greatness
Maybe something like "Fort Schembechler: Return to lockdown"
I whole heartedly support
I whole heartedly support this one. +1 to you sir.

Don't freep me
Don't freep me, bro!
Don't give 'em free
Don't give 'em free advertising. Give it to the other guys:
Fort Schembechler reads the News.
(or AnnArbor.com, etc.)
Boom...
This is a great start.
And then, next time you or somebody in your house has diarrhea, marinate this shirt in it for a couple of days before flushing. Then never wash it. Folks who are in the know will get it.
If there was an anti-Freep
If there was an anti-Freep shirt, I think I would like it to say "Keep the Freep out of Ann Arbor!" but that reeks horribly of censorship. I think "Boycott the Detroit Free Press!" would be good enough. God I hate the Freep.

Instead of
something that names the Freep by name, how about "The Detroit News"....Detroit's ONLY newspaper....

Protests
In lieu of a Freep shirt...
...may I propose some sort of David Brandon shirt?
peeing
It's actually pretty comfortable to pee sitting down (if on your home court), especially late at night in the dark when you don't want to spray any nearby magazines.
"Queme los Freeps" with a picture of a burning newspaper
"Worst Paper Ever" as the front page headline of the Fr**p.
"Ann Arbor's New Toilet Paper" a picture of a bathroom and the Fr**p on the roll
"I get my news from the Interwebs" with a picture of a newspaper X'ed out.
I hope Six Zero has some ideas. I would buy a shirt...
