Fedor and Affliction, $65 later... what ever should I do?

So, I had become a huge Fedor fan after seeing some great battles in Pride. I thought this was a man who truly could beat whoever was put in front of him and that he truly wanted to fight the best. Given the events of this week, I'm personally disgusted by the actions of Fedor Emelianenko and M-1 Global.
For those Fedor lovers and those that feel that Fedor and M-1 are not to blame, go ahead and skip this post w/ poll.
I currently own this shirt, I paid 65 bucks for it because I truly bought into the Fedor hype.... I'm not going to wear it ever again so what should I do with it?
End of poll: I saw that the majority of people voted for the "dump and send" option, but I decided to take the higher road and donate to charity... along with all my other Affliction shirts which I'm afraid to admit how many I had and the money I wasted on them. Oh well, hopefully someone less fortunate will find use in them.

I know the honorable thing is to donate it to the homeless...
but those people are going through enough and I don’t want to insult them. Maybe I’ll just donate 65 bucks to a homeless shelter and do option number 4.

I chose burn it, but only with the condition that you youtube it and post it here. That way, we can spread the hate. haha

That is doable!!!
If I choose to burn it…. I will record it and post it on YouTube.
However, I’m sure Luke won’t let me post a video of me pooping on the shirt and taking it to Fed Ex… lol

My whole reasoning for keeping it...
I trashed my Shannon Sharpe jersey when he left for Baltimore… but something told me that the Cutler jersey would come in handy and not to throw it away.
Its now my daughter’s favorite object to throw up on, which is how it should be.

Go get your best friend and a video camera....
then have him kick you in the balls, then post it on youtube and give us the link. That should be punishment enough for purchasing this piece of shit.
P.S. Then you can wipe your ass with it and send it to Tom Attencio.

You know what.... I deserve that
In fact, I’ll rec that comment.
I was blinded by hope for a better tomorrow… much like the reason I voted for Obama. I won’t talk shit about him though, THEY’RE WATCHING US…

How about you burn it and bury the remains at the Wamma offices since they’re both pretty useless now.

Get Brock Lesnar to sign it.
Or write “I tried to sign Fedro and all I got was this stupid T-shirt” and give it to Dana.

I think this deal is sealed.

If you do option 4, how are you going to hide the smell?

Pine tree car freshener. By the time it goes through customes the scent will be gone.

The amount of shit Jerry Millen talks on a daily basis would be more than enough to cloak the smell.

Plus I don’t need a daily reminder of the fact I was stupid enough to pay 65 bucks for a t shirt, I’m embarassed of my mistake but I shall own up to it and strike back… ha ha ha ha!!!!

keep it
screw up are always worth money in a couple years, and as if that wasn’t one of the biggest screw ups in mma’s short history.
Time capsule it for your kids.

Another idea
Take it to Gap, and ask if they will give you half the profits from the franchise if you agree to let them sell your $65 Affliction shirt.
Co-promoting for the win!

You NEED to give it to a homeless guy on the corner, have him out it on, then get a good picture.
We can use it in every thread regarding Affliction or Fedor.

You wanna roll down Colfax with me to get this done?
I’m sure someone along the 16th Street Mall would be willing to help…. for 10 bucks and a pack of Malboros maybe.
