Lamar Odom Wants You To Know Boston Sucks

This Lakers fan T-shirt might seem particularly ill-timed to you, what with the Lakers down 2-0 to the Celtics and looking like they could really use a certain seven-foot-tall 20-something center with knee issues. But you don't know the half of it.

This charity T-shirt sells for $20, with proceeds going to Cathy's Kids, the official charity of Lakers forward Lamar Odom. Of course, it probably isn't the best bulletin board material to boldly claim that the other team sucks. Particularly when you're down 0-2.

Odom and Undefeated chose to go with a negative message - Boston Sucks - but why couldn't they instead gone with something positive? Too many ideas come to mind on what would have been a better choice. A choice that could be worn well beyond the end of this year's NBA Finals. A choice that would have brought positive thoughts to mind.

We think negative messages are fine; that's how you sell T-shirts. (And Web sites!) It just doesn't help when you crap out in the first two games. Oh, and you're Lamar Odom.
