This reminded me of a picture my dad took of me and my son years ago. We're walking into Raymond James stadium in Tampa for a Packers game and we're both wearing #12 Packers jerseys - his Rodgers and mine Dickey.

Zeke Bratkowski FTW

Bonus points for some obscure player who isn't on the team anymore.

Or throwback jersey with a former great. Best with an old logo, old colors, or a team that doesn't exist any more.

I tend to wear soccer kits like normal t-shirts, but they never have a player's name on them and they're sort of different (in my mind) than a football jersey for some reason. But I don't care what others do at all or when they do it.

You go FKW?

The other day while in my local grocery store, a guy and his wife (I assume) were wearing matching Vikings jerseys. Just led me to wonder....

yes, but a team jersey. can’t be player specific, especially if that player no longer plays for the team. don’t wear a sam darnold jet jersey. also, don’t go to a cowboys vs bears game and wear a viking jersey.

I’ve still got my Eintracht Frankfurt jersey - red and black stripes, loose fit, and that vintage sponsor across the chest. Doesn’t fit quite right anymore, but I can’t let it go. It's crazy how something that simple can bring back such a clear memory of watching late-night Bundesliga highlights and trying to catch a glimpse of it in the crowd.

I pretty much only wear them to sporting events. When I was in LA I did go out in that throwback Magic purple jersey from the 80s. When I was in Ann Arbor I had the Webber fab five throwback. I have a decent collection at this point. I like having them even if I almost never wear them. Never had the money for it when I was younger.

Just bought a throwback Walter Payton and Barry for the next time I’m in Chicago and Detroit.

This is me, sort of.

I only own two jerseys.

One is a Russell Wilson Seahawks’ jersey. Of course not obscure but definitely had a major fall from grace after forcing his way out of town.

The other is a Morgan Geekie Kraken jersey. I got caught up in the hype when Seattle got an NHL team. I love their jersey and liked the player and his name. His number was also my birth year. So I chose Geekie for somewhat silly reasons. He left in free agency the next season.

I only wear them on “support your favorite team day” at work—-so once or twice a year.

I voted yes (no exceptions) in the pole, though.

Are you a fan of one of those teams? I have never understood the idea of wearing jerseys of a team I don't root for.

I’m a Bucs fan. Sweetness and Barry transcend team lines.

Sure, as a signed jersey hanging on the wall in a nice frame. Not so sure about wearing a jersey of a team I don't root for.

I own several jerseys, but it seems every time I buy one, something happens to that player like a season ending injury or they get traded. Elway retired. Jay Cutler traded, Von Miller traded. Laphonso Ellis and Mutombo moved on in free agency.

I guess it could be worse, I bought my wife an Adrian Peterson jersey years ago. When they have jersey day at her schools, she just doesn't feel comfortable wearing that one.

So I will be staying away from buying a Nix jersey for the time being.
