Retail Geniuses

Postby EconPony'10 » Fri Aug 23, 2013 10:37 am

Dear whoever handles the online store inventory. The next time you advertise a whiteout, you might want to make sure you have enough WHITE SHIRTS in stock for people that are not 300lbs and over. Only XL's and XXL's left in white polos. This is not the first time this has happened though so I am beating a dead Peruna

I swear to God I could do almost every job in the athletic department (besides Rick's) better than the people who are actually doing them now.

We should get rid of Larry Brown and hire East Coast Mustang to not only coach the basketball team, but maintain the practice field, manage the athletic trainers, and give some pointers to Steve Collins and Eddie Sinnott :-)

I recommend white wifebeaters from Walmart. They can double as both shirt and towel.

However, you might blend in with the Tech crowd if you do that...

I see two positives here:

Our fans aren't obese (cough OU, cough A&M, cough, cough, Arkansas..)

Lotsa people coming to the game.

When was the last time we sold out of anything? :mrgreen:

I was going to mention sending them to Arkansas. We are the only state (at least in the top 10) that increased in obesity ranking last year. I did my part.

Quite a few white shirts online, including this one, which might be a good call on a 98+ degree day like next Friday.

SMH ... whatever.

For the record, some of us who wear XLs are nowhere near 300 pounds.

There is a very poor selection of white SMU shirts. I looked online yesterday and was about to give up when I remembered my Hawaii bowl 1.0 white t. So I am set for Friday. Go Mustangs, beat Tech!
