JD45 Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 There are too many gun related companys today that screw up an otherwise cool T-shirt by printing "Team" in front of their name. Am I on the team? Will I be soon? If not, could I please have just your logo. I like your product, always need cool shirts, so will ya print a few regular ones for guys like me that only wear the "team" shirts after I make the team! Thank you very much.

kimel Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 And in sizes REAL people wear. A significant fraction of the world is larger than XL and there is also a significant fraction that is smaller than S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ducman Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 Arrraaaaa! That drives me nuts! Talk about bans. That should be banned. It goes on in every sport. I always been of the mindset that if you want to look like a pro, do the work, get sponsored and go pro - don't pose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooter Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 Same thing with cycling. You don't wear team jersey that you don't belong on. You don't wear the stars and stripes National Champion jersey unless you won it. You also don't wear the yellow jersey unless you earned it.

TBeazlie Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 I saw a guy at area 8 wearing a "Team Me" shirt. The sponsors were his wife and kids. I liked that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dead Buff Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 Yep, if they want me to wear their "team" shirt, they can give me the gun and a couple of truck-full loads of ammo. If not, it will be my choice who's advertising I do on what shirt....I am my own team until conviced otherwise.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricW Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 The "sponsored" cycling thing is even more irritating than the "sponsored" shooting stuff - which is incredibly irritating. Nothing is dumber than a bunch of geriatric wannabes, wobbling around at 10 mph who all think they're sponsored by Credit Lyonnais and USPS. I don't have a problem with logo shirts at all. I really like my GSSF shirts - I did win them after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scooter Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 I don't have an issue if anyone wants to wear Team DFL. It's a small cycling club in the SF bay area. Typically DFL stands for Dead F-ing Last. But they claim it's Didn't Finish Last. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing is dumber than a bunch of geriatric wannabes, wobbling around at 10 mph who all think they're sponsored by Credit Lyonnais and USPS For most races you can't even start with a jersey of a team that you aren't affiliated with. However, for a local training ride, the race jerseys offer a better material, full zipper and a better cut than most training or plain jerseys. I don't think anyone is really confusing me with a member of Gerolsteiner or Brioches La Boulangere . Zach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shred Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 If somebody gives you a 'Team' shirt, are you on the team? If you sell a 'Team' shirt, is anybody that buys it on the team? What if you haven't got a team, or think anybody that uses your stuff is on your team? IMHO, the "Team X" designation belongs to whoever owns brand "X", and they can issue it or not as they see fit. Random team reminiscing: Back in the day when NO FEAR was the wannabe thing, some local shooters had some Team NO SHOOT shirts made up. Same font and white with a big black X, front and back.

texasag93 Posted August 11, 2004 Share Posted August 11, 2004 If I am on the team why do I have to buy the shirt? And if I am on the team where is my free gun to use and promote "The TEAM SPONSOR"! TXAG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vince Pinto Posted August 12, 2004 Share Posted August 12, 2004 If you guys want T-shirts which will really make you stand out in a crowd, try T-Shirt Hell. WARNING: OFFENSIVE LANGUAGE, SOME NUDITY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BDH Posted August 12, 2004 Share Posted August 12, 2004 One of the funniest shirts I saw at the 2000 Limited Nationals... 'Suck too bad to be sponsored!' Not sure if it helped or hurt his shooting, but at least it was across the back so maybe it did not get into his head... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingman Posted August 12, 2004 Share Posted August 12, 2004 I love Tshirt Hell. I would never wear any of them to a match. But priceless none the less. On another note. If you are wearing a Team your own company shirt are you good to go. Cause you are sponsoring yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimmyB Posted August 13, 2004 Share Posted August 13, 2004 I saw a pick of the great BE wearing a "Team" Ted Nugent shirt at one of the Bianchi matches, shortly after the S&W deal (I think) ended. I thought that was way cool, especially as I'd just been booted of the UK Parker Hale (UK S&W dealers) team, so I decided that I wouldn't pay to advertise a company and set up "Team Pink Floyd" (not affiliated in any way shape or form). It was great being in a team of 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airedale Posted August 14, 2004 Share Posted August 14, 2004 I nearly always wear my polo shirt with our Airedale kennel name.(sponsored by me) I'm a first year shooter and my mentors tell me revolver shooters should always dress nicer than the bottom feeders...something about more class...
