SEC Shorts - Georgia has a hard time unloading their SEC Championship t-shirts
SEC Shorts ^ | December 9, 2019 | Staff

It was a game to forget for the Georgia Bulldogs as LSU took them to the woodshed during this year's SEC Championship game. The only problem is those pesky Georgia SEC Championship t-shirts that were produced just in case. Now Georgia must find a way to unload them in a very...subtle manner.

There was a video on Twitter of the UGa SEC Champs swag being carted away during the 4th Qtr of UGa's beat down by LSU. People in Africa will appreciate nice t-shirts being sold to them for cents on the dollar.

UGa seems to be one of those teams that’s just missing something. They’re good, they win a big game now and then, but they just don’t seem to have what it takes to get over the top. Not sure if it’s coaching, but that’s my first guess as a casual observer.

Why not sell them at LSU? They might enjoy the irony...

UGa fans on Twitter are saying Kirby Smart is Mark Richt v 2.0.; cannot win the big game.

If they’re really embarrassed by the shirts, I seem to recall that there are organizations that will take such unwanted clothing and distribute them to the needy in other parts of the world.

This way, when a Georgia alum visits some poor island in the Caribbean, they can see kids running around in “Georgia - SEC Champions 2019” shirts. LOL!

I had understood Haiti is a huge dumping ground for these shirts that are printed before the event.

In this case, they simply ran into an offense that their number 1 defense could not stop. Their offense was not good enough to compete. They should have seen it coming after losing to South Carolina, I suspect.

A friend of mine was in the Peace Corps in Mali. She used to laugh at all the American T shirts like these the locals wore without a clue what printed on them meant.

The honeymoon is over. With a resurgent Florida Gator team we’ll be hearing more whining from Bulldawg nation in the future.

We are taking in a Colombian student for a couple months through our church. She is trying to learn English. (She will be returning home after two months, and has no interest in emigrating from her homeland, just wants to learn our language for her future in business.) Anyway, when we met her at the airport, her shirt read, Brookline, New York. I wonder if that was just a made up phrase that wouldn't violate any trademarks, or if this was a typo of Brooklyn that got dumped on the cheap in South America. She did bring us some delicious fresh coffee beans!

UGA is being UGA they have been garnering 5* recruits in bunches since the late 80's and they still can't get a Natty.

Sans 1980 they have always been a program with a questionable heart when it comes to getting over the finish line. Spurrier who made it an annaul habit beating them down when he was our Gator coach used to joke that UGA wins on signing day and Florida wins on gameday. I think starting next year we can get back to our 4 wins for ever loss against Georgia pattern. Saban has a lousy coaching tree, and we are finding out without a team stocked with all 5* recruits Saban can't get it done either. Georgia was saved from humiliation by Clemson or LSU anyways. Oh well they always have Basketball..oh wait they suck at that and baseball, and swimming, and women's b-ball. They are good at accepting students with 2.5 GPAs and middling SATs, you know that bottom 50% types which the Vandys and Floridas threw in the reject pile before the slobber on the stamp was dry.

Just like the Pats' "perfect season" in 2007, when they lost the Superbowl to the Giants. Those shirts ended up being donated overseas.

I googled it just for curiosity...it appears there’s a fairly new band from NYC called “Brookline”. But I’m guessing your theory is probably more likely.

Can’t they be cut in pieces and used for cleaning rags? Georgia’s maintenance staff could still use them.
