you know that shit is gonna tear up all the buying & selling/classified subforums all over the net when it hits the streets

edit: looking at that photo RG deserves to win off that alone. Yikes, Dre3K not on a good day, probably figured he was gonna lose anyway.

^haha yeah, there's another photo of him on the site and he don't look too happy in that one either.

Let's not forget that Geller will probably be asked to design a white shirt for Gap as well.
