We all know someone that is guilty of this......wearing the worst possible team jersey ever. You will never see me wearing a Sage Rosenfel jersey. My only question is what actually draws the line between a throwback jersey (Doug Williams, Dan Marino)......and an embarassing I can't believe you own this jersey (Ryan Leaf, Lawrence Phillips)???

Re: Throwback or Throwout?
 

basically, just don't buy a jersey until a guy retires...I've learned my lesson after two Brad Johnson's and a Steven Davis

Re: Throwback or Throwout?
 

Yeah, the Champ Bailey jersey doesn't really see the light of day anymore...

Re: Throwback or Throwout?
 

The day you guys signed Springs, I took my boyfriend's Bailey jersey out of the closet and brought it to a sports store that made uniforms. I had them remove Bailey's name and replace it with Springs. He got a good laugh out of it at least.

Re: Throwback or Throwout?
 

i have a Frerotte jersey collecting dust in the closet. After that, i decided to wait til either the player is retired or signs a long term deal (Cooley).

Re: Throwback or Throwout?
 

My Laveraneus Coles jersey isn't getting much use either....

Re: Throwback or Throwout?

Re: Throwback or Throwout?
 

I still have 2 Lavar jerseys collecting dust in my closet.

My buddy is a Pats fan but i can deal with him cause he's from Boston, he told me his dad bought him a Ben "Coats" jersey for christmas a few years ago....on the back it said the first and last name on the jersey all spelled out "Ben Coats."

Turn them into Len Hauss jerseys (Sonny & Billy's center & in the ring of honor).

Re: Throwback or Throwout?
 

I have a sweet red Skip Hicks #20 jersey. Let's see.... I could turn it into a Chad Morton, Alvoid Mays, or Pierson Prioleau.....

Yea... that's a tough one.... just hold onto it for 20 years... maybe it will come back in vouge.

Re: Throwback or Throwout?
 

If Portis left the team right now I'd still keep his jersey and wear it with my head high.

Re: Throwback or Throwout?
 

LOL, I still have a Gus Ferrotte (Redskins), Kerry Collins (Panthers), Mark Chumura (Packers), Juwan Howard (Wizards), Chris Webber (Bullets), and a Ken Griffey Jr jersey(Mariners).

Re: Throwback or Throwout?
 

I have a number 5 jersey from the mid-90's. "I won't say who that use to be!", but at least it does not have his name on the back!!!! Maybe we will get a another famous number 5, and I can wear it again.

Here's the guy you can put on the back of your jersey.

Curt was a great clutch kicker for the Skins back in Allen's day and the best Skin's kicker ever 2nd only to Mark Mosely .

That's what I will do! Put SPEED RACER on the back. Will that all fit?
Go Speed Racer, GO!

Never wear that Chmura jersey to a club, or near a school.

Better yet, never wear it outside of your home and if you're wearing it in your home, stay away from windows. :cheeky-sm

Re: Throwback or Throwout?
 

Last year the Arch jersey was selling for $18. So, I looked up retired Redskins, and lo and behold, there was a NFL HOFer Redskin retiree with that number! I could have changed the name on back, but then people would have questioned who he was at games I suppose. How do you talk about a guy who retired before you were born?

You still do and sound like more of a badass because of that.

Hate to tell you, but no Redskin HOFer wore number 40:

Re: Throwback or Throwout?
 

I'm going to see if I can locate an Ethan Albright jersey....most people might actually think it's a custom jersey. Not many people no that Ethan had the lowest rating in The John Madden Football game series ever.

....but Alvin Walton and Reggie Brooks did. They're definitely jersey worthy players.

That is fine... but as I said, no HOFers wore that number.

Re: Throwback or Throwout?
 

I have a Rod Gardner & Champ Bailey.. The only other one I have is a Tomlinson powder blue..

You are kind of right! Two time All American at ND. PF HOFer 1968 and was in the top 70 greatest Redskins! Wayne Milner E, 1936-41, 1945. Played TE and DE. Had the first B&G 100 yd. game. Starred on four Divisional title teams. He helped the B&G to one of their NFL Championships in 1937.

Re: Throwback or Throwout?
 

Now that our number one draft pick has assumed number 11, I was wondering if it is possible to change the name on the back of the Ramsey jersey that was given to me for free from the Redskins store after his release. I almost didn't take the jersey, because I knew I would never wear it, but if I could change the name I might actually wear it. If it's going to look cheezy then I won't even bother.

Re: Throwback or Throwout?
 

I wore my Sam Shade jersey a couple days ago...

I always hear people talk about wanting to get a nameplate changed on a jersey but I don't think I've ever heard from who has actually had it done.
How much would it cost and does it look legit?

The quote was only like 20 bucks from one place for them to do all the work. They suggested I buy a thread puller and remove the nameplate, flip it around, bring it back in and they would screenprint another name on it for only $10. Then they made sure to tell me that they were not responsible if anything happened to the jersey and that scared me off.

at least the LT jersey will be awesome forever....

Re: Throwback or Throwout?
 

I used to have a Lavar Arrington jersey, but I gave it to my friend because I bought a Sean Taylor jersey before the 07 season and he didn't have any jerseys or anything like that.

I mean the way I think about it is if you are too poor to afford a different jersey then there's nothing wrong with wearing the jersey of a player who is no longer with the team. It's better than not wearing any jersey or piece of clothing supporting the team you like at all. I remember the first game I went to, I didn't have any Redskins clothes so when I got to the stadium the first thing I did was buy a 'Skins t-shirt and a black Skins hat that I still wear to this day lol.

Grown men wearing jerseys....hmmm...I just don't know...
