Ignore the pile of shirts in the background (hey, they’re folded, right?) and feast your eyes on my kick ass tshirt. I came across BelieveMerch a few weeks ago and ordered two of these shirts, one for me and one for the husband as a graduation/anniversary/Father’s Day gift. Then I had to wait because only someone of brilliance orders something from a small, local merchant who peddles Pittsburgh sports stuff two days before the Penguins win the Stanley Cup. I waited as long as I could before sending them nagging emails (by the way, if you happen to read this, BelieveMerch folks, sorry I put my mom voice on in that last email). But the shirts finally arrived today and I’m so so excited.

The reasons for the awesomeness of this shirt are threefold:

– It looks fucking badass
– It’s about Pittsburgh
– It’s a Weeds reference (Shane, a young character on the show, goes through a period of obsession with Pittsburgh, convinced that it’s the Promised Land and obviously art imitates life so he’s absolutely correct.)

    Ohhhh, I saw these recently and really wanted this one and the “Yoi & Double Yoi,” but only allowed myself one because my rent is about to almost-double. (Which means I should have allowed myself NONE, but whatever.) I went with the “Yoi,” but now seeing you in this one, I worry I made the wrong choice. *sniff*

    @Lizzie, there were a bunch that I wanted to get. the Yoi one is pretty awesome. I also really like the Jack Lambert “I’m a Fucking Maniac.”

    That is FANTASTIC! I want that shirt for all three of those reasons SO much.

    Love it.

    Thanks for the website to check out.

    Without it I would have never found the “guns don’t kill people, Lamar woodley kills people” shirt, which I now lust after.

    @Goose, there is much win on that site.

  7. kent Says:

    Where can I get one?

    Beats the bejeebus out of “Is This Heaven? No It’s Iowa!”

    @kent, http://www.believemerch.com my friend. I think it’s high time that you start repping Pittsburgh in Iowa.

  9. furiousBall Says:

    FUCKING AWESOME shirt. I saw one the other day I liked too: it said “Pittsburgh, City of Champions,” and then below that in very small print, “And the Pirates.” HA.

  12. kdiddy Says:

    @jive turkey, HAHAHA! oh the poor Pirates. they’re actually doing pretty well (relatively speaking) this season, though. a few years ago for Christmas I got my dad a shirt that says, “Pirates Baseball: Rebuilding Since 1992”

    @kdiddy — believe me, STLRZ get Iowa love — hell the University of Iowa Colors are Black & Gold!
