Was it a lateral? It was the Wild Card game and the Buffalo Bills had just marched down the field for a field goal. The kickoff was just a formality, but the Tennessee Titans pulled out a playground return, including a lateral that totally looked like a forward pass because of where the players were standing, but on closer inspection proved to be legit. What a play. What a way to end a playoff game. There are no flags on the field.

Of course, this is a New York Giants t-shirt, because they destroyed New England’s perfect season in 2007, by beating them in the Super Bowl despite being heavy underdogs. I’m sure that’s a sweet sweet memory, and causes pride to well up in the team’s faithful followers. Not much of a better way to get fired up for Round 2.
I call this particular type of shirt a misdirection. I actually haven’t seen a good misdirection in a while, so this football player catching a pass with the basketball terminology “slam dunk” under it is a welcome offering from Busted Tees.
This is one for all you American football fans out there. I know there are millions a day that visit this site. Basically, you’ve been waiting for a while to pounce on the next football shirt I highlighted. It’s been a while. But, a monumental occassion like owners and players being able to agree on how to split 600 trazillion dollars, while half of the U.S. starts to slip below the poverty line, is really something to celebrate on a shirt. I mean. Thank god. What the hell do the miserable unemployed have to look forward to if not the NFL.

You remember the scene where Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn get owned by Bradley Cooper and that other dude in football. On one Cooper TD, the other guy says crab cakes and football that’s what Maryland does. Vince Vaughn looks at him like he has seagull shit on the top of his ear.

It’s one of them misdirection t shirts that folks were so excited about back in the day. The image is of a football but the word says soccer. You put this baby on thinking “I’m gonna screw with some minds this evening…big time.” And, you know what. You will. This is cognitive dissonance. Makes people stop and check themselves. It has the potential to shake cobwebs loose in people’s brains and make them see things a little more clearly. It may even make them stop listening to Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin.
This is a shout out to Smirnoff Ice and football. Looks like the ball is on a tee, so this is a kickoff. At first I thought this was a field goal attempt, but I guess that would have been too confusing, because there actually is a dude that takes a knee during that play, so it wouldn’t have been as cool as this. Maybe, he’s just refreshing, he’ll throw the bottle behind him and the long snapper will get it to him. Place, spin ball laces out and boop. I guess that’s probably a little nerve racking also. All eyes are right there, so taking the edge off isn’t such a bad thing.
Misdirection galore here. That’s a baseball player taking a mighty cut, aiming for the cheap seats, but probably whiffing super badly because Tim “The Freak” Lincecum just threw a nasty slider. It has nothing to do with a touchdown, which is the name of a score worth six points in the game of American football. That’s why it’s funny. People will come up to you scratch their heads and walk away. Hot women will get it right away and totally want to jump your bones…yeah, even you are a girl. It’s just what happens when you wear the Touchdown Baseball Batter T Shirt.
Headline Shirts kind of stepping out of its comfort zone with this religious and football themed shirt. I applaud them. It takes guts to try new things, especially when you’re comfortably kicking butt with your regular funny, political, irreverent stuff. Well, I guess this is still pretty irreverent, and maybe even sacrilegious in certain circles. Mess with God in any way and you’re asking for trouble, and this particular Zeus-like depiction, participating in a game of man, could really rankle the fundamentalist Christians snooping around the Internet.
Happy 1st Sunday of the NFL season day. This is like a major holiday for football fans. Now, let’s relate this important day in professional football to t shirts, because that’s what I do.
Hey check it…a little sporty misdirection. You know you like sports and misdirection is huge in sports execution, so this is for you. Actually, you would probably also like to wear this shirt if you hated sports because you’re basically saying baseball, football, whatever…I don’t care.
Just a snifter of brandy. A splash of sherry. A fifth of Jack. And a re-run of TJ Hooker. TV can be very irritating when you’re two sails to the wind and heading for a massive hangover in the morning.
