Spinoff from top ten jersey sales thread (1 Viewer)

[rzrback77]

I have a Steelers coat, jacket, t-shirts and caps but no players jerseys. I am about to turn 50 and I think a greybeard like me would look silly wearing a players jersey. If I were still in my 30s I might wear one though.

You are never too old for football.................. I am already in 50s.....

I am really surprised that I am the only one listing Pat Tillman. I thought that there would be more.

I wore the Air National Guard "jersey" on weekends for 22 years. I salute those that continue to wear those, but I have retired mine.

 

[sho nuff]

Favre jersey I bought in 1993...still fits actually and does not look too bad.

a Nitschke throw back.

Now searching for a new one. Probably will get on made.

You're not alonePat Tillman -- Cards - maroonPat Tillman -- ASU -whiteBraylon Edwards -- Cleveland - orangeRay Lewis - Miami Hurricanes - orangeI really prefer to get throwback jerseys lately. It seems like whenever I get a jersey for my favorite player on their NFL team, they get traded or the wheels fall off. Tim Couch (enough said), Ricky Williams - Saints (traded the next year), Edge James - Colts (signed with AZ the next year).ETA: my next will probably be a Butkus or Deacon Jones

 

[Lucky Bucky]

Bart Starr - This is the one I usually wear

Brett Favre - Probably 10 years old now

Wife has Walter Payton throwback

Daughter has A.J. Hawk

Son has Ahman Green, Rex Grossman, and Tom Brady

As a kid I had a David Whitehurst jersey. Ugh.

I say this statement all the time. I have the White Tillman jersey. I wear it every time I get on an airplane too. Any time I have it on, I get stopped by someone telling me it's a great jersey and what Patt Tillman meant/means to them.

Whole lotta :X in this thread.

I wanted jerseys when I was a kid. Once I became the same age as the person whose jersey I'd be wearing (or older), I always thought it was a little ... well, nerdy.

But hey, to each their own.

I thought the same thing.The stereotypical Jersey wearer is certainly not "nerdy".They are usually gangsters or blue collar workers. I happen to be neither of those and a jersey wearer and hardly a "nerd".

Jersey wearers are plain and simple fans. Now if you start adding in body paint and metal and such that makes you a Raiders fan.

There is an ongoing crisis that is taking place around the country, and it needs to be stopped.

The only thing that gets me more upset than getting the first two legs of my three team parlay correct, only to lose the third, is grown men wearing football jerseys in public.

I have no problem with people showing their team's support and wearing a jersey at a game, but if you’re the guy who wears it doing errands around town, at your kids' soccer game, or at a bar, you need to fix it.

You’re not cool wearing a jersey, and it only shows me that you have never played past junior varsity football and you live through guys that could care less about you.

You shelling out 70 bones for their jersey is only putting more money in their pockets. The same money that you cry about them making on sports talk radio.

The only thing worse than a guy wearing a jersey at a bar is his significant other wearing a matching jersey. It's not cute when "Bob," weighing in at 285, and his wife, who looks like a defensive tackle for the Washington Redskins, are both wearing Tony Romo jerseys.

"Bob," you can barely throw a football 10 yards, and the only time you did was as a kid in the summer when you'd throw the ball to your friends as they jumped in the pool because you sat in a lawn chair with your shirt on and otter pop in the other hand.

Now, I shouldn't make fun of the woman because I know it wasn't her idea to show up matching, but still, you’re not Jessica Simpson in the luxury box watching your man throw touchdown passes. So take it off and instead put on his XXL tall tee from Wal-Mart and go to work on some buffalo wings together.

Guys have no excuse to ever wear a jersey outside of a football stadium, and women are allowed to wear a jersey outside the stadium for one reason only: if and only if they hook up with a guy at a bar and the next morning are allowed to work around the house with it on.

Of course, with nothing else, unless you are hooking up with the gay Shawn Wayans in Scary Movie and he wants you to put all the pads on.

There are only three types of people who are allowed to wear jerseys:

1.) Any kid under the age of 14. Eighth grade is the last grade I will allow someone to wear his favorite athlete's jersey before I make fun of that person. That being said, the kid better know about the athlete is he is rocking. It better not be some gift your aunt gave you for Christmas, but instead you wanted it because you respect the athlete's game.

2.) Any girl in high school who wears her boyfriend’s opposite color jersey at games. Nothing is better then seeing a cute high school girl in a No. 66 and asking yourself how did Jimbo at right guard pull and get this girl.

Also, knowing that once this girl leaves for college from her small town, Jimbo will be left working at the factory while his girlfriend that left him is now jocking jersey No. 88 along with 5,000 other coeds at game days on Saturday.

3.) Anyone mentally challenged. How could you make fun of a guy in velcro shoes proudly wearing his 1998 Puma Peyton Manning jersey? I dare anyone to tell him the player they’re wearing sucks.

So please, all guys who wear jerseys outside the stadium, please list them on eBay. I'm sure, in this economy, you could use the money.

....or those couple of masked wrestler/Nacho Libre Steeler fans they kept showing on TV at last weeks divisional game. Those guys looked awesome (but not the brightest lightbulbs)! Hopefully that catches and Heinz stadium is filled up with black/gold masked wrestlers in attendance. Start something new since every other team is now being posers and copying the terrible towels these days.

Some valid points and basic common sense.I see nothing wrong with wearing my jersey to a sports bar if I am going to a watch a game.

If it's a Sunday during Football season, I'm likely in a Jersey. By Sunday, I've worn a business attire all week and just don't care what others think. I'm speaking just for myself here, your milage may vary.

Crumpler, Dunn, Dwight and my brand new Ryan jersey received for Christmas.

I do have a Vick jersey stuffed in the closet somewhere, probably go out with the next good will box.

Agreed...plus they are pretty darn comfortable.I like to wear it to travel too.

The only issue I have with wearing jerseys...is someone wearing a Bears jersey...to a game involving the Titans and the Browns.

 

[Cecil Lammey]

I collect jerseys, and love it!

I won't list them all, but here's some highlights (and lowlights) from my collection:

Pat Swilliing, LB, New Orleans Saints - loved watching him rush the QB back in the day.

Eric Dickerson, RB, SMU - I have both the home and away. Rockin' it in the picture below with Chris Mortensen.

Barry Foster, RB, Pittsburgh Steelers - I also have a Panthers jersey of Foster.

Walter Payton, RB, Chicago Bears - my favorite player of all time.

Charlie Garner, RB, Philadelphia Eagles - love the old school Eagles jersey!

Errict Rhett, RB, Tampa Bay Buccaneers - old school

Marshall Faulk, RB, Colts/Rams/SDSU - 2nd favorite player of all time. I still have the sportscenter on video from when he turned pro. Also have the one from his 386 yard 7TD performance against Pacific.

Garrison Hearst, RB, Arizona Cardinals - I've got a soft spot for Georgia RBs.

Ricky Watters, RB, Seattle Seahawks - old Seahawks logo

here's some jerseys that never leave my closet:

Cecil Collins, RB, Miami Dolphins - the night I got married I watched him run all over Auburn when he was at LSU

Jason Thomas, QB, UNLV - I have both home and away. He couldn't even make it as a TE with the Ravens!

did you really want a charlie batch jersey? cause I think my dad has one, plus a nice Joey Harrington one.

 

[Cecil Lammey]

Still searching for a Leonard Russell Broncos jersey, the 1994 75th anniversary jerseys are the best!

Would like to upgrade my Russell Patriots jersey, and a Rams/Chargers jersey would be good too.

 

[Buckna]

I'm assuming everyone listing their jersey's is talking about Authentic, sewn game quality jerseys and not that iron-on, screen print stuff.

 

[Phurfur]

Do any of you where these jerseys on non game days or in the off season?
