Learn your team history. Goddam Whippersnappers..? Anyway, as usual, this thread is stupid. Do you and your classmates take into account jerseys are often gifts? They May have significant meaning beyond just a jersey for Gameday. You’ve yet to make a mature thread, yet, undaunted, you puke one out every day.. I’m going to need to speak to Mrs Chandler please. She’s clearly not performing her wifely duties and is making Mr. Chandler frustrated. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe some fans rocking obsolete jerseys are "half way invested" but not fair to presume that Sorry, yes I may be overreacting while sleepless in the middle of the night, but find this thread a bit obnoxious and judgmental. Oh, it’s definitely judge mental. I think it comes from being a yankee fan too. I’m so sick of seeing fair weather fans. I get annoyed when I see yankee jerseys that have the player name on the back. That’s literally their one uniform rule and you break it as a fan. I know a lot of people go to the game for the first time, want to wear a jersey, go to TJ Max, and they have a ton of McCoy jerseys on clearance and they don’t know any better. It’s an elitist mentality and anyone judging is a dick. But yeah, I’m kind of a dick. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davefan66 Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 One of the fun parts of Bills games in partying in the lot and seeing what jerseys people wear. Official jerseys cost too much to constantly wear a current player based on roster turnover. Nothing wrong with wearing a former player currently playing elsewhere...although Gilmore to a patsies game is kinda weird. Me, I wear my Kent Hull jersey to regular season gams, and my Moorman for preseason. Yep, Moorman, and I have nothing to apologize for... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaskerFan Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 (edited) I am certain that any player whose jersey I buy is doomed: injured, a bust, cut, traded, gone. I have copious amounts of evidence to support this fear, lol. Edited October 6, 2019 by Taskerismygod 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could do without the gatekeeping and "only opinions that agree with me are valid" attitude. For the record, I also weigh in heavily in the WHO CARES and "not everyone has the money to blow on new jerseys every offseason" camps. Someone giving a single crap about what Bills jersey someone else wears is akin to questioning a female gamer on her gaming credentials, or grilling a superhero movie fan on their knowledge of comic lore. It's elitist nonsense. I interpreted 'Who cares' as 'Who cares what anyone's stance is...' not 'Who cares what jersey someone wears'. Perhaps I misinterpreted, if so you're right, completely valid opinion. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll still wear that thing until it falls apart though. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HopsGuy Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 I have 2 Bills jerseys: 81 Chandler (Home Blue, Puma, authentic at the time) 61 Kalsu (Away White, Reebok, replica) Both are players that died too young. But, being safely in the ground, they can’t OJ me. True story: I ordered my Chandler jersey online. A few hours later, I get a call from a nice lady in Iowa asking if that the name I wanted. She had checked the Bills roster and there were no Chandlers. “Is this a gift?”, she inquired. “Nah, just my first favorite player from the 70s.” I then explained how they postponed the OJ trial for his funeral. She said, “Wow, I’m going to reduce the shipping/handling to $1.01.” Apparently if they went lower, it required some sort of paperwork. Anyway, I have a very good , never worn, Chinese-knockoff Tyler Myers sweater hanging in my closet. It was $28 w/ $45 shipping. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember when the Bills fan shop was blowing out red ‘third version’ jerseys with ‘Johnson’ and ‘11’ for $5. Long before there was ever any talk of ‘Color Rush’. I am surprised that we didn’t see pictures from Africa of people wearing them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TAinLack. Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 8 hours ago, UConn James said: That’s what I did when I got an Elite (~$300) throwback jersey. I picked a favorite number and have my last name on back. It’s going to last a long time. I don’t want the name of some dude who may not be there next week in the revolving door that is the modern / free agency NFL. If anyone has a problem with this, they can pound sand. I went to my first game at Rich/Ralph/NE Field back in 1997, and while walking through the lot, some drunk started in about me wearing my authentic Kelly jersey, saying I should get a current player. **** that and **** him. Wear what you want. You and I are not there to impress anyone with our fashion choices. Yup, I'm with you UConn James!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
