    Best Advertsing $ abercrombie never spent

    http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/05307/599884.stm

    I'm of course not defending this wear, but I bet the company isnt all that sorry given the amount of attention they are/will be getting.
    Nothing to see here. Please disperse.

    You know. I can see their point, and they have a right to hate the shirts.

    That said... a Girlcott??? Come on people.

    I officially abandon their cause. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go watch The Late Show with David Letterperson.

    How about protesting the $30 Abercrombie charges for those second-rate tees?

    BTW - Check out some of the Men's "College Tees".

    I think Abercrombie should just go for the gusto and market shirts that say:

    "I am a (male) *****"
    "I probably have a disease"
    "I will eventually mess up your life"
    "I am a restraining order waiting to happen"

    High school kids shouldn't be shopping at A&F anyway.

    The folks at A&F know their generations inside and out. Don't be surprised to see them tone down some of their products' snarkiness in the next few years as these more PC kids reach college age.

    I'm personally offended by the girl being offended.

    One makes as much sense as the other IMO. What ever happened to live and let live? No one is making her buy the shirts, nor wear them, so she should leave it alone.

    Championships for MY teams in my lifetime:
    Cincinnati Reds - 75, 76, 90
    Chicago Blackhawks - 10, 13, 15
    University of Kentucky - 78, 96, 98, 12
    Chicago Bulls - 91, 92, 93, 96, 97, 98

    If only this would have happened in West Virginia, and Bob Wise was still governor.

    Sounds like they need a life....outside of protesting.

    Just don't buy it, geez. People are so stupid.
