Blazersedge shirts?

by halo_on on Oct 27, 2009 9:04 AM PDT

I'm still semi-new to this whole Blazersedge thing. But the community seems really healthy. With so many people contributing to these threads, it follows that fans might like a t-shirt right? Maybe I missed something. But does Blazersedge have anything like this? I'm sure Dave & Ben would love to see Blazer fans with Blazersedge shirts at games right? Ben or Dave, get on this man. There's possible money to be made for the kids! Could donate proceedings to your ticket drive.

My idea is for Dave and Ben to enlist people to help them make Blazers Edge shirts....

To make a scad for $5 each, selling them for $20 each, and to use all the 15-dollarses to send Mr. Golliver on a long road trip with the team…

I never knew TIW and I had something in common.

i have the Roybot

as well as a few others, but that’s my fav.

"Fernandez, to my eyes, is the Blazer who walks that walk most comfortably. A lot of Portland's fans (egged on, dare I say, by their local broadcasters) lament things like how Ron Artest or Yao Ming get to hit Brandon Roy's arms.

But I suspect Fernandez sees all that and thinks: We get to hit arms! Cool!"

SCARVES!

We need Blazers scarves!

Blazer scarves would be AWESOME

can anyone make them?

by OutrageousJ on Oct 27, 2009 9:49 AM PDT up reply actions

Would need to talk to my Timbers Army buddies...

But, yes… There are companies that do custom designed sports scarfs.

I want one!

ARRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGH!!!!!!!!- Sabonis getting fouled.

We could use Paco´s caricatures (for free) to decorate some shirts, sell them, and get money for kids.

by amlmart1 on Oct 27, 2009 9:59 AM PDT reply actions

Hey Amlmart, do you have the .PSD files from Paco?

I called around and found a guy who thinks we can do them for around 8-9 bucks a piece (t-shirt included), but he wants to put the caricature into his computer to see.

All is now right in the world :-)

if not PSD, the highest res jpegs or pdfs?

Profits could go toward sending the kids to the game

and custom stitching the screen names on the front – for a small fee. You just beat me to it.

Your rivals have T-shirts ...

At Denver Stiffs we just released our t-shirts … you guys could buy some and burn them before the Nuggets vs. Blazers game? haha…

Those are some pretty sweet shirts...

for fans of the soon-to-be, 2nd place, nw division team thugs!
Really though, I would wear a BEdge version of that.

They have existed

but (sorry!) I think they were kind of ugly.

We’ve got some talented people (plus Paco’s caricatures). I’m sure we could do better.

by Section323 on Oct 27, 2009 10:29 AM PDT reply actions

i would likely agree

although i did and still do like the roybot one.

I also prefer fitted t-shirts as opposed to regular ugly ones.

Honestly it wouldn’t have to be that detailed. Just put the Blazersedge logo on the front with Blazersedge.com underneath. Then put something clever on the back like “Got Blazersedge.com?” or “Feeding the hungry since…..” etc etc.

Regarding Hedo Türkoğlu:

Look at the bright side, Blazers fans -- you dodged a bullet. He peaked statistically two years ago. He's allegedly 30 but could be closer to 32 or 33 for all we know. (Do you trust Turkish birth certificates? And isn't it weird that he played four years of pro ball in Turkey in the 1990s?)

We should make shirts that say “I heart Benjamin Golliver” and make some XXXXL sized shirts for the team to wear during interviews.

by david1978pdx on Oct 27, 2009 11:21 AM PDT up reply actions

Wheels could give those to the players he interviews instead

of $50 gift certificates to restaurants.

I've never understood that...

It’s a player’s job to be available for interviews, especially when it’s with a show that is produced in-house. Then again, itss $50 worth of radio advertising for whatever restaurant its for.
