All I can say is whoever designed the original shirt needs a slap in the face.

No, I'm just responding to something that makes about zero sense to me. And if it was a joke, you missed the punch line. B-B-BUSH LEAGUE? Seriously, lighten up. If anyone should have a big ol' mad, it should be the investors. Hell, Rob probably ain't even mad. I'm not taking it seriously, I just don't get it. We go from a shirt with some bad spelling to a guy imagining Dixie as a baby or toddler, I just didn't get the connection. Man, whatever happened to blaming this stuff on D'Lo? I think mikeys just trying out for csi miami with his punchline comment. Just..lets try it out ok? And if it was a joke, you missed the punch line. YEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHSee a flawless victory. Uhhh.....yeah, that's the ticket. A printing mistake on a t shirt is kinda bush league. How many WWE t shirts have come out with those kinda mistakes? That Randy Orton one a while back, the yellow one with the gas mask.

It's maybe a stupid mistake, but TNA isnt going to get a lot of flack from me on this one. Its like this classic commercial.

That Randy Orton one a while back, the yellow one with the gas mask. ok i'll explain if you dont get the joke. as i see it,the joke was quite simple. Basically tna as you know made a spelling error. One poster made a joke about them not being able to do even simple tasks and took it to it's logical extreme for humors sake in making dixie carter unable to master simple things. And as for your response to my harmless good spirited joke... YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH

Score! Just another case for the bush league argument. You said it! I mean, no other company has ever made a printing mistake huh? I'd say definitely, but this in addition to the other things that continually plague TNA, this certainly doesn't help.

Mikey, you know how you get on people for nit picking things and overanalysing? Yeah.
Seriously, if WWE had made a spelling error an a shirt and someone made a joke about Vince being senile, would you be saying anything?

No, cause I expect WWE fans to get it right, and just blame the print maker, instead of blaming Vince for something he isn't involved with. Yes, I just said WWE Fans > TNA fans.

Yeah but it was a joke. If you didn't think it was funny, then you might want to check your sense of humor.

Yeah but it was a joke. If you didn't think it was funny, then you might want to check your sense of humor. Or maybe it wasn't funny. George Carlin, he is not. Okay, so it's a joke. Why do I have to like a joke I don't find funny? I mean, it's such a leap. I mean a joke would be "Why did the chicken cross the road" "To Get to the other side". However, here, he goes "Why did the chicken cross the road? Eggs Benedict!" See what I mean? A better joke would have been "I can't wait for the new JA Stlyes sriht and that Mikc Foeyl VDD"

And he did make that joke. He opened with"NAT" Besides it was like two sentences,it wasnt there to pass the george carlin test of approval.

Okay, it's simple as this: -Dude makes a joke about current situation. -I don't find it funny, not by offense, but because I didn't laugh. -You and a few others are trying to convince me that it is. -I continue to not find it funny. Honestly, this wouldn't have even left the first page if the guy didn't decide to get in my face about it.

I personally dont care if you like the joke. I just tried to help you understand it because you seemed unable to get it. I dont think it worked. Im just glad eric bischoff has greeting cards,even if they screw up his name. They'd be so insulting. "Hey its eric bischoff wishing you a vanilla midget christmas" "Uncle eric here wishing all of you over anayltical internet fans a christmas that isnt as pathetic as your lifes"

No, I get the joke itself, I just don't get where Dixie came from all of a sudden. It seems like putting too much out there. You could have been like the photoshop with the van (funny) or that lyrics sheet(hilarous), but instead you gotta toss in something else and just make it lame.

I thought we all agree D'Lo would get the blame for everything now. That's the real trouble here.
