I'm not saying FUCLA is profound or deep, just that it is a step above "UCLA SUCKS"...
If you were walking by someone on the street with FUCLA on their shirt, you wouldn't immediately say to yourself "whoa, that guy's shirt says [Bleep]!" but after you thought about it for a second you'd notice the FUC sound and read the UCLA and make the connection. To me, that extra second of consideration before the meaning presents itself and the non explicit expression of a bad word earns it creativity marks and a silent "bravo". "TCU/SMU/UCLA/OU/Texas/etc. Sucks" just tells me who you're not rooting for, and there's nothing really witty about that.

During the week before the USC-UCLA Game all the greek houses would decorate our houses with anti-Bruin paper-maché figures with slogans.
One of the fraternities (sorry I don't remember which one... senior moment  ) had the grand idea to create a 40' vertical banner which they attached to the Von KleinSmid Center Library Tower. The banner was visible to all the cars on the Harbor Freeway.
The banner showed a 35' Joe Bruin with a stunned expression as a Giant USC SCREW was penetrating his midsection.
The meaning was obvious, yet subtle enough at first glance, and when the Administration realized what was graphically stated, the banner was quickly removed.

Has anyone noticed that the SMU campus style is the color of menstrual blood?

When my kids ask what that shirt says, I tell them it says,
"TCU is not very nice!"

How about a T-shirt that says on the front:
Tarrant
County is
Ugly
and on the back says:
...and smells like cow [deleted]
Just kidding. I think the TCU Sucks shirts are pretty pedestrian. We are above that.
Geaux MUSTANGS! Geaux Tigers!

Oldmin, when the buildings on your campus look like the bottom of a frat house toilet on a Saturday night, your smack is really weak.

So what do you call it when you rip our recruits as marginal - at best - and slobber all over every moron who signs with Froggy High and UTEP and Tulsa and Houston and whoever else you seem to admire so much?

Because you are one to be judging cool stallion... I saw TCU sucks shirts at the bookstore. And I am not above wearing a TCU sucks shirt. But if it pleases you haters, I'll looking into getting a "TCU is inferior" red polo made...
From Land's End? I was thinking a wind shell that I could wear around DCC would be nice too.

Clearly a billboard on 35 with some frogs in a skillet is in order.
