Hot Take: Tinman Won't Change Their Name

But then Parsons will have to convince another graphic designer to come up with a logo he won't pay for and can change the colors of to satisfy he's needs as a "creator"

LOL this.

In the videos of him "designing" the new drop it shows him literally just moving around a picture of the logo from left to right on a shirt.

"Spent all day looking at pantones." Guess what, this one is gray, the next one is white, then black, then gold. Just like the last 10 times.

As a guy who has been doing it professionally on my own for over a decade, this makes me laugh. If his view of himself as a "creative director" is any indication of his ego, then I feel bad for him as he's living in some fantasy world.

Given how this all went down, now is the perfect time to switch to Snowflake Elite. I'll gladly retire this username and buy their first drop of merch with the new name on the logo.

Boulder also does get quite a bit of snow...this could actually work.

How did Schwartz never get any type of contract or anything in writing for coaching these guys? Once it became a brand unto itself using his Tinman name for all kinds of self promotion and he didn't nothing to protect that.

Regardless this is like EPL fans obsessing over a team that has never made it above League Championship division. Or baseball fans fawning over the AA affiliate.

Just a quick check on him now: tweets support of Clemson T&F, remembrance to Amaud Arbery, mocks Trump's false claims of election fraud.

Tinman is a middle-aged dude who has lived a lot of life and is like, yeah, I don't see any problems with Donald Trump.

This is not the same thing at all.

Have you ever kissed a girl ?

If so, when ?

I say this not to slander him but rather show that he's a man of few convictions. His lack of conviction has allowed him capitalize on whatever the hip trend of the moment is without providing any value in return. This has been a successful business tactic but has been at the expense of being worthy of respect. It's pretty clear that he doesn't care about (or even understand) issues of social justice, but now that social media activism is in vogue, he wants to make it part of his brand to play into the senses of his general consumer base. Can't hate the game though

- he's driving a Tesla while I'm driving an old Honda - it's just not for me.
