Don't know if this has been posted here yet. But saw this on Twitter and thought it was really, really sweet! We need t-shirts now.

Man that Tee would look great without sleeves. I can see myself putting up mad weight in the rec right now!
If this is anyone but Steve Allen, you're stealing my bit.
How about.....
Marquette University
The New Warriors
Or something to that effect on the T-shirts

Never liked the "where amazing happens" slogan. Maybe it's the 16 years of Catholic school getting to me, but "amazing" is not a noun.
Why not just "We're Jaemazing"? That way it could be construed as either an adjective or a verb.

Actually, a verb in its present participle form (any verb with "ing" on the end) can be used as a noun. It is then called a gerund. This is clearer if you substitute "walk"; "Where walking happens". Kudos to ecompt who correctly predicted a few weeks ago that
we I would get around to discussing gerunds.
someone male the shirts, I'm in for one for sure
Murray,
Tell me you even understand your own explanation.

Unfortunately, I do. Far worse, I actually spent at least ten minutes thinking it through. Hell, the game doesn't start until six and how much Mah-Jong can one play?

I can promise you there was no discussion of gerunds when the creative types were discussing "where amazing happens" as an NBA slogan. I am sure there was a whiteboard in the room with an entire list along the lines of:
Where fantastic happens
Where awesome happens
Where incredible happens
etc....
Not "Where the act of amazing those who attend the game happens".
Props to your understanding of grammar terms, though. Let me guess...Catholic school? Nuns?

Dominicans. Sister Angelica and Sister Ursula.
Should have been "Don't mess with Happy". ;)

The purple was bugging me. I figured out why. Gold and purple are LSU's colors.

When I made it I put down blue... so I don't know why it appears purple. Maybe you're color blind?
Let's keep it classy - "Marquette University - - - where gerunds happen!"

And Vikings colors - the trifecta of hate!

Thank you. ;D
Sick logo. I'd buy the shirt if there was no words (or perhaps just MARQUETTE). No need to make a sweet shirt ruined by a stupid catchphrase or something like "where jaemazing happens."
No need for words, logo speaks for itself!!! Nice
