Phils Yearly Motivational Tees Fail to Motivate Anybody Except the Clientele at Bump
They couldn't go with something a little more lame and cheesy like "2008: Unfinished Business" or "Fuck The Mets?" Instead someone on the Phillies goes and puts a very buff and shirtless image of Pat Burrell on a tee shirt and asks, "Man or Machine?"
Not that there's anything wrong with that.
hopefully they're just joke shirts until The Babe gets to the Carpenter Complex
i'm personally a big fan of the "fuck the mets" shits, though

That shirt probably still does better than my idea... it was also a picture of Pat, except below it says ".282 or .209?"
Still love ya, Burrell. Here's hoping he continues strong after a nice '07 season.

Should have said...Strength don't mean a thing if you do not swing!...

Brett's offseason workout regimen was obviously very grueling.

"The only thing better than slapping around your wife on random New England streets, is wearing a homoerotic t-shirt with you half naked teammate on it!"

I'm not gonna lie... I'd buy one.

Playoffs?!?? Playoffffs!
Posted by: Brian | Thursday, February 14, 2008 at 04:07 PM
I think I would buy one, but I don't think anyone outside of the interwebs would understand the joke.
I think the back says "The winning starts now!"

Those shirts would have been better off with either: "Chicks dig the long fly outs" or "Chicks dig warning track power"

These shirts were not for motivation, but because Pat was recently inducted into the U of Miami Hall of Fame.

I think the motto this year should be "Cole's got a Chiropractor!"

I think the F the Mets shirts are being made for Anna Benson, as I heard she already lived it.

Chase Utley stole the idea for these shirts from my group of friends. A friend of ours had this exact caption down for the exact same picture on myspace. I would like Chase Utley to admit that he stole this idea.

Is there a website anywhere that I can get a Phuck the Mets shirt? I don't live in PA so I was just curious.
