Is it possible, in the future, for the A's to boldly go where only a few A's teams have gone before?

Not without a captain it's not.

Love the insignia.

So perfect.

They say nothing is impossible, but I do nothing all the time!

I love your designs.

So many great details, like the Coliseum lights and scoreboard on the ship in the background. Awesome!

Okay, this is your best one yet.

By a longshot, and that’s not a slight at your other designs. This one is just that fantastic.

This is BY FAR the best one yet

So many little touches. The sci-fi style #8 for the jersey. The “A” looking like the starfleet logo, the colliseum lights on top of the enterprise.

Damn. Maybe we need to get one where Shatner is yelling “KAHNNN!!” and put Kurt’s face over it while he’s yelling “SCOCIAAAAA!!!!”

Seriously, though...

Is he not the Captain of the team? Mr. Retaliation himself?

The man who’s caught the likings of Harden, Haren, Blanton, Street, Duchscherer, Cahill, Anderson, Braden…

And if he’s not the Captain… Who is? My vote goes to Captain Kurt (obviously).

Dude, half of our team doesn't even know who half of those people are.

It’s gotta be Captain Kurt.

Your icon is hilarious!

Love.

Don’t be surprised if one of these designs ends up on my body as a tattoo.

I'm here to talk about the past.

Dude this is awesome!

As are all your other designs. Thanks.

as much as I would love to see my artwork showcased at the Coliseum...

I would prefer to be the one showcasing it… no offense to you, ConditionOakland.

Maybe sometime in 2010 we could collaborate about how we could a few of my posters in the stands…

I personally am getting tired of the sharpie-on-posterboard signs that look like they were created in the parking lot.

would never ever think of showcasing someone else’s great work without the proper dues. just saying, if you had it for sale or had some kind of print out that had like your name and contact HUGE on it, i’m in line, pal. i’m a fan.

yes, some a little more elaborate designs in the crowd would be great.

New rule

Bandwidth be damned, I think we need your images posted at desktop size every time. Sweetest pic to date. My favorite touch has to be the A’s Star Trek logo.

I’m suddenly seeing visions of Trekkie night at the Coliseum.
