Anyone else seeing a Pistons rendition of this shirt if/when we draft him?

Personally, I think it's stupid.

and offensive. I sure hope there’s no piston’s version and I wish there wasn’t an unofficial Kentucky version.

I love MFFreywagg

and don’t want to be offensive if there is something you’re offended by, my man, but I’m with MFPPZ here. I’m with you if a t-shirt was made about a player who had a medical condition they could not control, that effected their life in a way we couldn’t understand, and that the player was made fun of for it. Take Charlie Villanueva. I can’t stand what he stands for on court, but if anyone should say anything remotely off-color about his condition, I will lose my shit. I will knock hard in his defense.

But in Anthony Davis’ case? Man, if I didn’t shave my shit, I’d have a fucking unibrow. All this kid needs to do is touch a razor to the spot between his eyes. It’s that simple. But since he doesn’t, it’s fair as shit to talk about. And it’s not like we’re saying “oh my god, look at that brainless clown that doesn’t shave his shit”, we’re celebrating that admittedly-unfortunate-looking part of his character and would consider wearing t-shirts in its honor.

I don’t get how that’s offensive, but I’m open to being shown how it could be. If it’s a dick move to make fun of him, I’m prepared to repent.

The fact that he doesn’t shave it implies to me that he’s not self conscious about it and thus wouldn’t be bothered by this.

If he were, he could fix things super quickly and easily.

so...

would you be offended if someone compared Charlie V to Ernie (has no eye brows), even if it meant a Bert and Ernie front court? Ok, i think i have been watching to much Sesame Street.

I'll bet every guy who has made fun of it ...

has gotten his shot smacked back in his face by this guy. I figure this shirt is just their version of the “Fear the Fro” thing we had when Ben Wallace was blocking shots like crazy. Was anyone offended by that? If we luck into getting Davis, I’d love to see a “Brow Down” or a “Fear the Brow” shirt!

If we actually get him

I will stop plucking the random hairs that sprout between my brows for the length of his contract. I don’t think I’d have a unibrow, but it might get messy looking. I’ll happily embrace the one-brow’d man we call our own

/this is not a contract … yet
