Chris Wants Something Else

Never let it go unsaid that Chris Cooley is a Renaissance Man.  Sure, he's an athlete.  But his latest blog entry reveals that he's also a lover of music (which, if you've been paying attention, you already knew,), a philanthropist and -- most surprisingly -- a creative genius.

Yes, a creative genius.

When Reed Doughty asked Chris to help him judge the DC 101 chili cook off -- a charitable event for kidney disease -- Chris jumped all over it.  (After all, he's a philanthropist.)  When Chris found out that Third Eye Blind would be playing the event, he was "as excited as Sidney Crosby wearing his leather pants to a Clay Aiken concert."  (After all, he's a lover of music.)

In anticipation of the big event, Chris writes:

I decided last night that I had to have a Third Eye Blind t-shirt. Now as cool as I think TEB is, they just don't carry their shirts at Super Target. Plus, after looking at my options online, I really didn't find anything super cool. They kind of just have this lame 3b logo with a circle around it. So I decided to construct my own, much cooler version.

(After all, he's a creative genius.)

So, Chris did what any hot-blooded American male would do.  He went to the craft store in search of stencils and bedazzlers so that he could make his own shirt.  He writes:

Off to Michael's I went and yes I am aware of how baddass Michael's Crafts is, they do have sharpies and shirts though, and bedazzlers, just in case I wanted some jewels. Success! After two hours of shirt drawing I am proud of my accomplishment. Third Eye Blind is awesome! And so is my shirt.

That it is, Chris.  The viewing public stands bedazzled.
