Make your own mask

I recently got a pm asking me to make some masks so that the person could have them for a preseason game. Just to recap news from last year...I could get sued by the panthers or nfl for selling these, but many people think they are cool, and want them.

So the graphic that phidelt made for me is attached. Here's how I made them.

1. Print the graphic. Size depends on how big your head is really, but the ones I did were around 4" wide.

2. choose your material. i recommend jersey cotton. it's stretchy, washable and doesn't unravel at cut edges.

3. get fabric paint and fabric stencil paper. it has a sticky backing that can be peeled so that it can be stuck to the fabric.

4. trace the graphic onto the paper. cut it out with an exacto knife for nice clean points.

5. measure around your head, and cut your fabric so that the diagonal across the square is big enough to tie the mask around your head. you can also use velcro dots. some people who got some a while back did this because i didn't cut them large enough for that person.

6. place the stencil on the fabric, and paint it. allow to dry long enough that you don't have to worry about the edges running out when you peel away the stencil.

7. wear proudly.

You can also use an iron on method for the graphic. This is easier, but you won't be able to breath through the mask as easily. The paper for this can be found at walmart and probably anywhere else that sells printer paper. The original I wore to MNF vs TB was like this.

Don't see how you'd be sued by anyone. It's just the shape of some teeth. There's no team logos on it so you'd be okay selling them. You can give me a couple for free for the legal advise.

went through all that last season. spoke to a rep from adidas and reebok. talked to a rep of the panthers. the graphic is straight off the panthers logo. bottom teeth just centered under the upper ones.

Gonna make one, then rob a bank with it. And then blame you.

that's soooo original

      10 more carries and he'd be top 3

      Dion Dawkins on his confrontation with A’Shawn Robinson

      Eh, hate to say it but I disagree here. A'Shawn trying telling him we can fight after the game shows where his head was at, and it wasn't in football. And if Ekwonu can get any tips from Dawkins who is a 4x Pro Bowler I'm all for it. Oh well, we live to fight another week. Would love if we're the ones frustrating the Packers with a blowout this time.

      Dowdle would probably be leading rusher or close to it had he been the lead back all season most of those guys in front have more volume of carries. Makes you wonder how his talent didn't flash in practice seeing how little use he got in the early part of the season.  It's not like it came out of nowhere he rushed for a 1000 yards last season even though just like here he started as backup and didn't get significant carries until the 2nd half of the season, Cowboys were playing an ineffective Zeke in front of him. Not sure why Jerry didnt try to resign him, but they paid for that in the game against us. Canales seemed determined to repeat the same mistake as Dallas, hopefully he's gotten out of his own way.  This team has lacked identity the past few seasons, especially have been missing that fire starter on offense like he had with Cam, Jonathan Stewart, Steve Smith's of the world. We had that briefly for 2 games hopefully the 2nd half of the season we can get back to that brand of football where teams know what we're doing but can't stop it.
