OK so guys im looking into getting a new jersey. I was just wondering everyones take on jerseys. I was dont like to be normal mesh in with everyone else. Therefore, i will not buy a QB jersey, a Gore jersey to wear, Davis or Willis. I like to be that guy that gives that underappreciated guy that 1 fan who he knows is pulling for him. So to my question. Jerseys with the Right name on the back??? or Is it cool to see them with their Nickname on the back. Example, Delanie Walker instead of #46 walker, it would be #46 D-Love. Actually know some one that has it. was pretty cool. So please give me your opinions
Farve? lol - j/k..... As a Packer fan, someone unappreciate IMO, would be Bigby..Dude can hit, kinda reminds me of Chuck (missing my two front teeth) Cecil!
i like getting an under appreciated player's jersey i would love to have a thomas howard jersey. as for the nicknames on the back i am not big on that part
I would go standard name, standard number. I think the "made up names" are silly. I don't like them and I know a bunch of people who agree. But you know what, if you like it, who gives a crap what anyone else thinks. I always go my favorite player and his number. But maybe I'm not creative...
The only 'made-up' name I'd wear on a jersey, is a Panthers jersey, #32... HE HATE ME :icon_cheesygrin:
that would be sick lol. Well see my friend was thinking about getting a Clements #22 name LOCKDOWN. i was either gonna get a regular Manny Lawson Authentic or a Keith Lewis Authentic. But with Keith i was thinkin bout gettin his name or his nick name Killa Keith on the back. Leaning towards just Lewis but ya.
I agree with nate. I think it's awesome to get a jersey of an unsung player on the team, but I'm not a big fan of the nickname on the back of the jersey. Personally, I feel it kills the idea of buying a jersey, something that's meant to be "authentic" or "official". That's just me, though, and like Ward said: get what you want. You'll be the one wearing it. Akers jerseys have always been popular here. Mostly amongst the women, though. :icon_mrgreen: It just sounds so much better than Smart.
I would go Manny Lawson. That Lockdown one would be alright until Clements retires or moves on and then some scrub comes in and is awful...then your friends jersey is poo-poo until he gets the name plate changed..which is always a possibility. I see the Akers ones all the time...which brings up a question...best selling Kickers Jersey?
I'm not 100% sure, but I'd have to guess the Adam V. Patriots jersey is up there as the best selling kicker jersey of all-time.
Ehhh it wouldnt really matter if he retired. 49ers are supposively getting new jerseys in 2 yrs anyways so i will buy one of those then. I am still kinda torn. Cuz i like the look of the Killa Keith #28 it just looks alot cooler then the Lewis #28. I know a bunch of people on here are against it and thats cool. I have tons of regular named jerseys. I am just kinda leaning towards doin it this one. And i will probably buy a Manny Lawson Regular named one later in the season. Hmm
i got an actual Ray Lewis #52 home jersey (purple) for christmas last year, which i'm gonna wear this thursday when the ravens open their pre-season at new england
I don't think it matters what the name is on the back as much as the color of the jersey. If it ain't Steelers colors....don't get it. :icon_cheesygrin:
