Lawrence T-shirt shop Joe College has pulled anti-Kansas State T-shirts with the slogan, "Frank Martin Mows my lawn."

On the Facebook page of 610 Sports' Nick Wright, someone posted an e-mail from Joe College responding to criticism of the shirt.

"Thanks so much for your email. We sincerely appreciate your thoughts.

We had a college student submit the idea to us and we printed 24 of the

shirts. We sold two of them. We have received a few other emails about

the shirt and it was pulled from the store and the website as soon

as we received a complaint. We truly do appreciate your comments and

thank you for thinking of Joe-College.com. Have a great

day!!Sincerely,JOE

Joe College was selling the shirts for $15.95, but the link to buy them is now dead.

In our poll, 89 percent of people hated the shirts.

I sent them an e-mail Monday morning to take down the shirt, and they responded with that same e-mail, with one detail changed. They said they had received 3 other complaints. What a bunch of garbage. Way to pass the buck, jerkoffs.

Yet they gladly printed shirts making fun of Mangino's weight....

So nice of them to push the blame out on a student. In the immortal words of Val on Frisky Dingo, "You signed off on the proofs."
