Dream-Crushing, Soul-Devouring Juggernaut Shirts

Done and done. See what you think about this.  The demon bear is bigger, and the C is removed entirely.  I also added the comma to make it grammatically correct.

Rita- the issue with using the bear from #2 and the "C" from #1 is that the C is too wide and there is not enough space inside it for the bear

[cth95]

I would like to see the first bear with the hockey stick inside a "C" sized like that picture but with the font of other design.

Regardless of which exact version you choose, I like the "C" with a bear inside.

[cth95]

I think I agree with Rita, but I wasn't sure if we were talking about the same ones.  If that is the case, then your answer would apply to me as well.  Is there a similarly-sized "C" without the wavy font that would work?  

I do like the hockey bear much better.

agreed on the hockey bear

hockey bear without "C"
hockey bear with "C"

I like the Hockey bear w/o the C, but would will get either one.

This combines the aspects requested: the hockey bear inside a C.  
Bear in a C

What about something more along the lines of the bear leaning on the C logo (or some other location) rather than being inside the C? As is, I like it without the C but like the concept of having the C in there somewhere.

Are we allowed to use official Cornell logos on something that's not licensed?  That's why we've been using alternatives to the Bear in the C or the bear leaning on the C

[cth95]

The "C" makes the bear pretty small.  If it isn't going to fit well, I guess I like the bear without the "C".  

If the "C" can be sized inbetween these last two examples, I think it frames the bear nicely.

[hockeychick470]

if we could make a the typical bear hanging out the "C" with a hockey stick in his hand and kind of rabid looking, that'd be kind of cool, but thats outside anything i could do.... anyone good at designing?

I meant reposition the hockey bear in the previous examples. I have no idea about using official things but I'm gonna guess no.

I also definitely think a block letter C looks the best but it just doesn't seem to be working with that hockey bear in the middle of it

Definitely stick with a block C, though I haven't found something that works well in customink for that...  Maybe an art version of a C that's a wider letter.

Also, did anyone see that clipart in customink of the bear face and the claw coming out at you?  that would work well for a devouring bear...

OK, the quote.  It's not actually the quote, which was:

"The Big Red are the dream-crushers, they play in games that end streaks and crush passion. They are the soul-devouring juggernauts of the league, because they are so systematically thorough in every aspect of the game that they will completely suck every ounce of energy out of your lineup. It's not a flaw or a criticism — it's a very, very powerful attribute, and nobody does it like Cornell."

• Do we have to have "Brian Sullivan, USCHO" on it?  It's a great turn of phrase, but posterity won't care who penned it.  (He's already getting a free shirt out of the deal, which is surely more than USCHO pays him.)
• Putting it in quotes when it's such a modified quote bugs my interior editor.
• Juggernauts?  I would prefer the singular.

I would go with "[The/A] Dream-Crushing, Soul-Devouring Juggernaut," four lines, all centered, no quotation marks.

What's more:

• Dagger-wielding bear is infinitely better than the other bear.  Isn't the point, after all, that we are the team that kills hope?  How does a steroidal bear with a stick convey this?  He conveys that we like ugly, 90s-style team logos.
• Putting the bear in a C gets too messy and makes the bear too small.  One graphic per side, and big enough to figure out what it is.

Otherwise, I hope, hope, to have good reason to wear this in Detroit.
