Re: We Should Bring Back Ramsey!!
 

I love how some people took this thread seriously...

And as far as jerseys go, I have my Bruce Smith jerseys (bash him if you will, but he was one of the most dominant DEs in our lifetime), and proudly wear those. mustard stains and all (on the home white).

I don't think it's people can't afford them, it's that they are the casual fan that doesn't particularly care which jersey they wear. My wife bought me 2 of the 3 jerseys I have, and I bought her a #56 one 2 Christmases ago (which she refuses to wear now...so I have to get her a new one).

My buddy has an old Riggo one. I'd love to get one of the Hogs if they were offered. Perhaps I should just use one of those 40% off coupons and order a personalized one from reebok.

Re: We Should Bring Back Ramsey!!
 

Would love to have Smoot back...

The difference between bringing Smoot and Ramsey back is that Smoot left in purely a contract dispute whereas Ramsey left because we didn't want him and he didn't want to be here.

If someone has the money to go to games, I think they can afford some extra cabbage for a new jersey, or that's what christmas and birthdays are for, hit up the wife![/quote]

I don't have the money to go to games........i get tickets from friends at the end of the season. I don't have the money to be buying jerseys every season. I let my gfriend wear my ramsey jersey at the jag's game. Better to have old jersey at games than none at all. Gotta get those colors flowing throughout the crowd.

People in Buffalo should wear the Bruce Smith jersey...I never saw him as our player even when he wore our jersey.

[quote=Mattyk72;259630]Huge jersey fashion faux pas.

Ex-players are should be retired right away to the closet or have the nameplate changed.

I can't even look at my ex-player collection. Brad Johnson, Stephen Davis, Smoot, Bailey, Ramsey, Arrington (2 authentics!).

I've sworn off current players, I'm sticking with the legends. I'm tired of wasting my money.[/quote]

I don't know what the Man Law case files say on this, but I'd think there has to be some kind of exception for former stars who played the bulk of their career with that team. IMO, Champ, Lavar, and and SDavis are all legit jerseys.

Ramsey, Brad Johnson and Smoot? Ugh.

Re: We Should Bring Back Ramsey!!
 

BTW, since we're talking about absurd ex-Skins returning to the team, somebody on Steinberg's Sports Bog comments had me in stitches talking about how Shar Pourdanesh was making a comeback next year...

Re: We Should Bring Back Ramsey!!
 

Ok, my closet now has Davis,Coles,Bailey,Smoot,Arrington,Portis and Cooley.:doh: I still sport the Davis every once in awhile, but mostly the Portis and Cooley. As Far as prices and not having $ to buy a new jersey, you just have to shop around. My Smoot,Arrington and Portis are all repla-thentics (sp?) really nice jerseys. Guess what I paid for them? $39.99 baby!! I only paid $29.99 for my other jerseys. And no they are not knock offs, I bought them from Marshalls. Every year they will have a few of the top sellers at those prices. So yes anyone can afford to buy a current jersey, just look around!

Re: We Should Bring Back Ramsey!!
 

my Arrington jersey has been collecting dust in my closet ever since he left. Unfortunately it's the only jersey i have, when i go to skins games i just wear redskins t-shirts lol. I'm bout to buy another jersey when i get the chance.

I have Coles, Davis, Doug Williams, Monk*, Riggins*, Moss*, Portis, Bailey, 2 Arrington (white / burgandy), 1 with my name, Taylor*, and Samuels. (*- authentic) I bought most myself, and I got a lot off e-bay. Believe it or not, I got those authentics from Korea and they were $75 if I recall. No kidding, $75 for authentic jerseys.
I no longer Williams because it doesn't fit anymore.
I refuse to wear the Coles, Davis, Bailey and Arrington jerseys because they no longer play for us.

If they retired with your team though, you should be allowed to wear them. I will never stop wearing my Sam Shade 70th Anniversary jersey. He was one of my favorite redskins. Him and Centers...

Yeah if they retired with the team that's ok. Unfortunately mine keep going to other teams. :(

Only if they meant a lot to your team and retired as yours. Some stipulations apply. Like Riggins is acceptable...even Monk. But someone that played for 1-4 seasons...no way. Davis can be overlooked, but the way he's trying to hang on in St. Louis is hurting him.
