Which Shirt Was Better? I thought Tana and Alex had the better t-shirt. I didn't care too much for the beads, though. But I liked the option of choosing a blue or pink shirt. Unlike the other team's, which was only white.

I liked Kendra and Craig's design the best. I would have wanted the t-shirt to be a different color, though.

Re: Designs It's kind of weird how the two designs turned out so similar, isn't it?

I liked the hooded option for Craig and Kendra's. Their shirt also featured the artwork whereas Tana and Alex's featured Tana's "beads" more than anything else.
Tana was really fixated on those beads wasn't she? She apparently could not think past "Hey, I made a ton of money selling t-shirts at the Olympics that I spiffied up with my Bedazzler! I can do that again. We'll sell a bunch and WIN!!!" The reason that Tana did not worry about a marketing plan and had to make the long trip to get a Bedazzler was because she was associating this task with what she'd done before. "It worked then; it will work now." She had a completely one-track mind. Alex just went with it. It seemed like his attitude was "If we win, great. If we don't win, it's her fault; she'll be fired and I won't."

I agree. I HATE beaded shirts. YIKES!
Craig and Kendra had a better product.

I liked Tana & Alex's shirts better, minus the bedazzles; however...Kendra is a marketing genius, and tapped into the collectors. They could have gotten the price that Tana & Alex were charging and really crushed Net Worth.

I didn't understand why Tana and Alex both had to go get the bedazzler. Couldn't Tana have gone to get it herself while Alex stayed behind and worked on the marketing?

Couldn't Tana have gone to get it herself while Alex stayed behind and worked on the marketing?Yes, they certainly could have done it that way. However, Tana was too focused on beads and bedazzlers to think of it. Alex just seemed lazy or passive/aggressive. He wasn't going to really fight for marketing because if that was the reason they failed, it was Tana's fault as PM for not officially assigning marketing to him. Plus he had the argument that he "tried" to get her to discuss marketing but she blew him off.

Re: Tana & Alex As much as I liker her, I think Tana should have been fired for the whole Bedazzler fiasco. She really lost some points with me last week. Hopefully she'll be able to pull herself together enough for the final task and win.
Even though Alex had been on a bad streak lately, I wanted to see him in the finals. I think he really would've pulled out all the stops and would've done an amazing job. Well, I hope everything works out the best for Alex and all those big ideas now floating around in that head of his. :wink:

He seemed quite pleased with his new ideas, didn't he?
