Not gonna lie...I'd love for them to do that for my school. I hope they expand it.

I hate wearing shitty Nike T-shirts on gamedays.

A friend of mine posted a link to a similar story on my Facebook wall the other day. My school is on the list, and I'm not ashamed to admit that I'm excited about it. It will be nice to have some options for representing my school that aren't complete junk.

Funniest line in the whole Gawker article: "Get a football team that's not a fucking embarrassment, Yale. Then you'll get your polo shirts."

Gawker said NYU is on that list. Apart from a couple Stern grads, I cannot see any NYU alum (myself included) buying this.

These articles say the point of this is to support college sports teams... I spent a little time at NYU and I can't even tell you the sports nickname off hand.

Indeed. Why buy shirts when you can just inform people that you interact with (transportation workers, for instance) what kind of school you went to and how educated you are?

low-hanging fruit, sorry.

Good move. For the most part, licensed college gear is really tacky.
