Mighty magnanimous of you, but why Paul? Why?
Why blow $1,000 of your hard earned drinking money on a readership that doesn't need presents to show you the love? Is this in actuality an underground marketing scheme to create an unexpect swell of enthusiasm to promote the name of your site right before you launch your Google-like IPO? Whatever, I'll take an XL.

And unlike the other freeloaders, next time we meet, first round is on me.

Next time I'm in NYC, I'm pulling a Larry. First and maybe even subsequent rounds on me.

I've given Paul the option to chose which shirt is better for me. I personally like the gray one, but aren't you supposed to wear white during a wet t-shirt contest? Damn decisions!

Paul, I can't wait to sport a paulkatcher shirt along side my lady in Detroit. Thanks.

Paul,

$1,000 on t-shirts? Very nice of you, but I if the marketing bang is what you are looking for I think you could do better. If you just want some t-shirts and want to thank your loyal readers, thanks much!

There are a lot of "why's" surrounding PK.com:

* Why do I do it at all? Why invest the time?

* Why use your real, full name and not throw grenades from behind a curtain like so many others?

* Why spend $1,000 to clothe other people?

The fact is I love the internet, love to write, love to study how people's reactions differ on posts about sex and sports and give-aways, love to meet people I would never have met if not for this site, love to hear from old friends who would have never kept in touch otherwise, love to use my real name as a spit in the face of every online troll and spammer whose dishonesty and viciousness threaten the entire medium, love to write for ESPN.com (for whom this site was a bit of a portfolio, evidently).

This site is nothing if it doesn't connect with real, live human beings. Ya know how I could make $1,000 instead of spending $1,000? Put blind links to affiliate porn sites, tricking you into clicking on them for my wallet's benefit. I know these things. But I'd rather have you wearing my site's name out in public and promoting what I think is a fun, honest site (if not too modest), because I think that's really, really fucking cool to have said you've done in your life.

I created this site more than four years ago on what started as a blank computer screen and my brain. CREATE SOMETHING, I always say. I did, and I'm proud, and I don't need your money, and I'd be honored if you wore the shirt if only to sweat in on the treadmill.

Damn, that was inspirational.

I'm sleeping in mine. ;-)

I will wear my tank to the Phillies games where my season tix are in camera view. I will even paint my body with PK.com (similar to that loon in Greece for Golden Palace)so when I flash the twins for the jumbo-tron, you will still be represented. I think that body painting and flashing should be a requirement for the girls to recieve a shirt.

hey man, I hear you. you have a great site and I appreciate all your work.

Damm. I missed the boat on this one. Although i wouldn't have acpected you to send one to Australian anyway. I reckon i'll probably buy one.

@#$%!! I go on vacation without Internet access for 3 days and this is what happens. I missed out on a really cool shirt. If you happen to print up some more, I'll happily pay for mine. Or, if anyone else is reading this and wants to sell me their shirt, I'd be happy to buy it. :-)
