Around SBN: MLB Trade Deadline: Phils, Astros complete Roy Oswalt deal

A tribute to Bill King.


Sometimes people have brilliant ideas.  Sometimes, people have not so brilliant ideas.

 

And sometimes, people have ideas that can be sold for ten bucks on the walkway from the BART Station to the Coliseum.

 

This, is one of those ideas.

Star-divide

 

 

 

Also, If there are any fellow AN'ers out there who would know how to best go about getting these jerseys I mocked up in my previous post, actually realized and made up for a possible community meet up at a future game, that would be excellent.

 

I'm not too sure if it falls under fair use or not, but it would be really neat to see done, if done well.

 

As for the Bill King tribute shirt, I have yet to design the back of it, but if you caught the Joker card I did of it earlier, you may have an idea of where it' headed.

 

A happy and healthy week to all.

Back of the shirt : Holy Toledo!

Really?

Bill as the Joker? Am I missing something? The shirt is definitely cool looking, but it just seems a bit creepy to me…

nah! I think everyone knows Bill was an angel that just "looked" like the devil

Back of the shirt could say “Sweet Devil”

Zachary, if you wanted to I would be more than happy to let you use the poem I wrote for BK on the back of the shirt as well.

Great shirt, though. God bless…….

why so serious?

In theory I could make these…I’m not sure I want to make these…
