Bounty Killer DVD Giveaway!
As Fandads we all like to find time to relax and enjoy our video games, comics and movies. Every now and then we just want to watch something to take our mind away from our daily problems and just veg out. One thing that I think we can all agree on is we like to watch things blow up and women that can kick butt (Kill Bill anyone?) If you're looking for a movie like that, then Bounty Killer is the movie you want to see....or win from us.

T-Shirt Thursday!
Today's post is short and to the point like our subject Boba Fett. I found this shirt in the clearance section at Old Navy for $4. There was no second guessing that I was going to buy this. It just goes to show you that you can find a cool shirt for cheap if you just know where to look.

The Fandads are coming for you Rock!! #Sponsored
After countless false starts and firing some of the best directors out there (too many slow motion shots Bay) the Fandads #SuperMilkMan video is finally up!
Recently Fandads teamed up with Milk to help promote The Rock's new milk campaign. This team up led to an amazing twitter party, some fun trash talk between the dadbloggers competing, but it also led to some fun videos about how we become #SuperMilkMan. Out of the 25 entrants, one lucky dad blogger is going to win the chance to meet The Rock and maybe compete with him to see who can rescue the most cats from a tree.
Our video was fun to make and I'm glad I got to share this experience with my little girl (we're looking at you big award given to movie stars)! Enjoy the video below, share your thoughts with us and make sure to view the other videos on Instagram using the hashtag #SuperMilkMan. Make sure you visit The Breakfast Project for tips, recipes and a chance to win some milk. Yes, you heard that right. Let me repeat; a chance to win some milk!
Thanks for supporting us and hopefully we'll get a chance to meet the Rock and enjoy a nice glass of milk, after we Rock Bottom a few aliens together.
As always, thanks for reading.

T-Shirt Thursday!
In honor of Fandads working with Milk this month, this weeks shirts are milk themed from our friends over at Threadless.com. The shirt "Cookie Loves Milk" was designed by Jess Fink and is a great choice for this week, because what goes better with an 8 ounce glass of milk but some delicious chocolate chip cookies or any type of cookie for that matter.
Our second shirt titled "The Milky Way" was designed by Budi Satria Kwan and may be the answer to how our galaxy was created or at least an interesting dramatization.
Both of these shirts can be purchased through Threadless by clicking on their respective links. Fandads recently went to a picnic thrown by the Threadless crew and we learned a few things.
1. Threadless headquarters is located right here in Chicago.
2. If I were a creative person, I would love to work here.
3. I learned to make buttons with my little girl.
4. I'm good at throwing darts at balloons.
5. I can't wait for the next years Threadless Reunion Picnic.

T-Shirt Thursday!
Todays shirt actually came in the mail from our friends at LootCrate. Lately they have been having some cool shirts in their crates (Deadpool Kool-Aid) and this one goes great with out recent "Brew Over Ice" posts and giveaway. Being fathers and gamers we need all the energy we can get to get us through the day and you know that sleep is something that we can only dream of. This shirt was included in this month's crate thanks to ShirtWoot! and can be purchased on their site for $18.

Brew Over Ice Sweepstakes
I've always had a strange fondness for Keurig brewers, yeah they're really cool and convenient, but they also bring me back to an earlier time. Let me explain...
Back in the 00's I decided to propose to my then girlfriend, but before I could do that I had to get the right ring. That's a topic for another blog, but one of the highlights of my shopping experience was getting to use the Keurig the jewelry store had in their waiting room. I think I had like a Milky Way hot chocolate or something and it was amazing. The whole process was awesome just pop in the K cup and wait a few moments, no fuss, no muss. But I digress...
I love my Keurig so when the Fandads were offered some free products to review I jumped all over it. And, as luck would have it, you're about to start reading said review. But before we get into all that, here's a link for you to participate in the "Brew Over Ice Sweepstakes" where you can win instant prizes everyday and enter for a chance to win $10,000. Also, we included another one to download a $2 off coupon!
We were sent three different flavors of K-cups to sample along with an awesome light up ice bucket, coasters, tongs, and a tumbler. (Which incidentally, we have an extra set of, to give away to one lucky reader!)
The samples were Snapple Peach Iced Tea, Vitamin Burst - Strawberry Pomegranate, and The Original Donut Shop - Sweet & Creamy Regular Iced Coffee

The first one I tried was the Sweet & Creamy iced coffee, it was an early morning and I thought I could use the kick. I'm not a coffee drinker by any means, but this was just sweet enough for me to be able to tolerate it. I decided to give my wife a drink, who is a coffee drinker and she thought it was a bit too sweet for her. The next flavor I tried was the Strawberry Pomegranate, I was pleasantly surprised, just the right amount of sweetness and had a smooth taste. Apparently it also has vitamins, so that's a plus right?
I intentionally saved the best for last. The Snapple Peach Iced Tea. The joke's on the Brew Over Ice Team because I had already tasted (and developed a short lived addiction to) their Snapple Iced Tea line and it is pretty awesome. I haven't had a Snapple out of the bottle lately but I'd bet that I either couldn't tell the difference or that the K-cup version is even better. The Snapple Iced Teas really hit the spot, they're especially refreshing on a hot summer day.
All of the Brew Over Ice products are quick and easy to brew and I think they're definitely worth checking out, and here's your chance to win a prize pack from the Fandads. Leave us a comment telling us when a nice iced beverage could have come in handy this summer or simply leave us one asking us to hook you up! We'll pick someone at random at midnight CST on Friday the 23rd. Also check out the Brew Over Ice Team on Facebook and/or Twitter. Thanks for reading and good luck!

T-Shirt Thursday!
He's not Mother Teresa but he's not Charles Manson either.
Today's tee comes to use from the creative minds at Black Action Tees. I picked up this one at C2E2 earlier this year along with a few others.
Unlike many companies they offer larger sizes, which is always a plus (no pun intended, well maybe). Here are a few more of my favorites.
These are also pretty good conversation starters so be ready to meet new people while wearing them! Now if you'll excuse me, it's time to hit the gym, my power isn't as "discombobulatingly devastating" as it once was.
