Donovan McNabb Is 15 Years Old

050608mcnabb.jpg

The always good (and thorough!) Bounty Bowl points out (with censored vulgarity!) over the weekend Donovan McNabb was wearing a one-liner t-shirt. And not just any kind of one-liner t-shirt: An inspirational one-liner t-shirt. (He’s also wearing a WWJD bracelet, which means not only is he 15 year old, he’s 15 years old in 1997. Like me!)

The blog also helpfully transcribed the shirt for us, since, yeah, I wasn’t going to read all of that:

“If you prepare to be the best in everything you do in life, you will receive great results. But if you are just satisfied with mediocrity, that’s what you will be.”

Gah. Gah. GAH! Donovan. You’re in your 30s. I stopped wearing one-liner shirts sometime before freshman year. (Yes, I have a t-shirt with a bracket on it that has the #16 seed me over the #1 seed you, but I bought it to support my friend’s website.)

McNabb actually seemed to figure out that inspirational slogan t-shirts — even worse than “funny” shirts — were bad, as he stopped wearing them after showing up in 2006 with one. But now… ugh. Ugh. But please: If you’re going to wear an inspirational slogan t-shirt, at least make it a little better than that? That’s clumsier than my dancing.

Sweet f*cking Chr*st, he’s wearing T-shirts with slogans again [Bounty Bowl]
