looks like one of those tacky atheltic-themed shirts you can find at american eagle or abercrombie or urban outfitters. something that says, "LAGUNA HIGH RUGBY CLUB" or something of that sort and the Laguna High mascot. Waaacck.
If anyone is unsatisfied with theirs, feel free to sell it to me. Medium wanted. =)

Still not impressed with the sneak peak. The 2nd shirt is the best so far and I wasn't really liking it that much either.

Well, be it their point or not, the content and overall execution and color is nice, but if that's their point, then their intent sucks.
I didn't sign up for the Digger's Society, and I'm glad, but all I'm saying is I wouldn't want to wear a $25+ T-shirt that just mimicks something from a wack company like AE. And besides, isn't the top corporate companies that rip the small companies, not vice-versa.

Just seems like you're pretty set in your thinking for someone who has not even seen the entire shirt yet...

I think what it's actually supposed to look like is a Starter rip from the early 90s and not AE. I'm assuming you were still playing with Lincoln Logs when Starter was big, so I'll forgive your ignorance. And considering the varsity jacket though i'd say the intent is a sports themed season.
I guess it really doesn't matter either way, since I'm not a memeber of the DG club and I'd rather cop a vintage Bears T on ebay for $3 than drop $250 for a made up team.

You're right, I was still listening to tapes that sounded like the following, "When you hear the BEEEP, then you'll know it is time to turn the page."

Yikes I like the shirt but the colors are not my thing.. I'm signed up for a medium so if once I get it I still aint digging it I'll probably throw it up on ebay, high bidder gets the shirt.

It's still one tee a month - regardless of whether it ships first or second week...I just got mines and honestly it was worth waiting for.

I know what you mean I'm on the edge of either being understanding with DG or being pissed off because the dates are all messed up and they are getting further and further behind with each shirt

I was thinkin' this same thing when it
occured to me that there is really no
reason/excuse for DG not to stick with
the first week of the month ship schedule.
Assuming DG has the Society partners
lined up in advance, they should already
be working on the shirts and have 'em
ready as "promised". Maybe not all of
'em but the MH shirt is supposed to be
ready to go in two weeks and if we're
in the middle of month 3, there's no
reason partners for months 5/6/7
couldn't have their stuff ready (or
well on the way to being finished.)
I can't even think funds should be a
problem as all shirts have been paid
in advance, y'know...
It's an ambitious project but may suffer
from "too many cooks" syndrome. I hope
the delays are only a minor glitch 'cause
I'd hate to see it worsen.

Yeah it may have to do with the sign ups that they are doing after each shirt comes out. You know they gotta make and ship more shirts once more people sign up. They should close off memberships altogether if its going to make the people who signed up in the beginning get a delayed product. :(

sup guys...new guy here...just got my shirt today for the 3rd round...kinda annoyed at first that it took an extra week to get my tee...but im glad the quality was there...the print looks nice and dense and not too light...the added pennant made me laugh my ass off...but i figured i wouldnt wanna sacrifice time for quality...i tried doing shirts before and depending on when they get done production takes weeks...im sure the DG guys are juggling all these brands at one time with all of them wanting to be next or this or that...i'll give em a couple more months before i start emailing the poison smiley to them...anyone seen the 4th round tee yet?
rasclaaat
08-17-2006, 02:24 PM
DOPE.
Regarding the lateness of the tees...I think you gotta keep in mind that as Magic, Pool, and to a lesser extent Project tradeshows approach, every company under the sun is madly sampling so print jobs of all varieties start to take much longer. That's how it always is this time of year in my experience (as someone who has tried producing stuff at this time of the year repeatedly).

peep the site for a picture of the shirt...

Hmmm...
I gotta say, I missed out on shirt #1 and
really liked that one. I signed up in time
for #2 and while the design didn't really
grab me, I can dig it from an artistic
point of view and will probably wear it.
As far as #3, I'm not into sports of any
kind but think this shirt is the nicest thus
far.
MH #4 looks ok, tho' I'd priobably like it more
if it's a two sided shirt. That said, can someone
tell me what the "I Love This Game" is from? I
watch more movies than I should and figger it's
from a film but damned if I recognize that
image/qoute.

08-21-2006, 08:29 PM
^^Its from the nba slogan " I love this game" used in the early to mid 90's in commercials and print ads. Cant remember if they still use it.
Anyone gettin the MIghty Healthy shirt from the diggers society and is a sz XXL ill def buy it off u.
