(i'd provide the link but they won't let me... yet)

The tshirt reads "we win, we loose, it's perfect"

anyone think they accidently misspelled 'lose' (opposite of win)?

or did they do a play-on-words and add the extra 'o' to get loose, meaning to discharge (a missle/bomb)?

i don't hear loose used as a verb too often, so initially thought they made a big typo.

what's everyone think? I am leaning toward the latter explanation (or i least i hope that's what they did)

whoaaaa
that would be far too gross an error to be un-intentional.

i'll just assume they're far more clever than i am. (*insert the obvious joke here*)

What about Bono misspelling marriage (he spelled it marrai) in the U2 iPod poster. It's too bad too because it was a great message.

I tried to give them the benefit of the doubt, but I think this is a lame typo that just got missed. Bono, you never should have dropped out of high school!

I suppose it *could* mean, "We win, we [are] loose..." like you might say "we cool" instead of "we're cool." Seems like a real stretch, though!

well, that's the way Bono wrote it in the HTDAAB collector's book

Haha I figured it was an Irish spelling.
