Actually, I think some of those names are Arabic-derived:

Gozer = جزر = to slaughter, butcher
Zuul = زول = to annihilate
Shuv = شوف = snowplow
McKetrick = مكترك = To cause to become Turkish (a bit of a stretch, I know)

Luckily for us, everything America wages a war on starts blooming: drugs, poverty, immigration,... where's the logo for fraud busters? Inequality busters? Discrimination busters? Illegal wiretap busters? False intelligence busters? Torture busters? War crime busters? Treasury theft busters? Ow, please tell me!

I wonder what their point was. But then I forget -- there is no point to anything from the Bush Administration. Except cronyism. Maybe Neal Bush has started a logo design business...

If you're not familiar with this being a symbol for "just say no to terrorists", then you might think it means "Just say no to blacks" Better yet, just in time for Christmas.

the screens for both teams are made and, depending on how the game is going, a crew, with added help, is ready to begin silk-screening the shirts even before the game is over…

the process is quite evolved from the old days… 4-color printers, the inks dry immediately and a huge, well-run shop can have 100s done and ready to distribute within an hour…

i would think there may be a first run of BOTH shirts, just to be sure…
the cost is included in the price, of course…
as far as all the pennets and other small stuff, probably made ahead of time, at minor costs, made up for with the sale of the winner’s stuff…
the excess must end up in the landfill…

i could be wrong… mostly a semi-educated guess…
though out of my “league” … heh…

the only thing i care about sports is that half-time at college football games is all about the MARCHING BANDS!!!
i LOVE the marching bands…
