Indomitable Drinky Crows
Filed under: Imported
The quest for corporate sponsorship is not going well. Wally McCarthy is still not returning my calls. Neither is Denny Hecker. The Pioneer Press doesn't seem interested either. The other day I sent this letter to Tony Millionaire:Dear Sir,
For several years now I have organized a co-ed rec-league soccer team under the moniker of the "Indomitable Drinky Crows." The name is inspired by your comic creation, as well as by the Cameroon national team (know as the Indomitable Lions). Admittedly we are a somewhat mediocre squad, currently possessing a 2-0-1 record.
Now I suppose one response to this revelation might be a cease-and-desist letter from your attorney threatening to sue us for copyright infringement.But if that is not your reaction ...
We are possibly interested in purchasing Drinky Crow t-shirts for the team. We would likely order 15-or-so shirts. Is there any possibility of getting some kind of bulk discount?
Thanks for your consideration.
Paul Demko
The response? Silence!
Now I know how Carl Pohlad and Red McCombs feel. Rejection is painful.
