Chaloner Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Just curious which jersey would you buy? A players jersey or a custom jersey with your name and number on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooooley47 Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 I would never get a custom jersey with my name on it. I might consider doing a custom jersey with an old player that they don't sell their jerseys for anymore. I also thought about getting McCloughan with #53 on the back for the 53 man roster, but cant do that anymore, haha. I also will not buy jerseys for current players anymore as I'm convinced I am a jinx for said player. I pretty much just stick with Taylor now, but considering getting a Manley or Green jersey. Can never go wrong with Taylor though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinsmarydu Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 I feel ya. Got a #10 Elite in his rookie season. I'm done buying jerseys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AsburySkinsFan Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Player jersey...but one for a legacy player. I'm just thankfull that I only paid $60 for my RGIII jersey, but I knew all along I should have gotten the Theisman, ST, Monk, Riggins, Jacoby or Green jersey. #LiveAndLearn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never. We should give him more "praise"...just sayin'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bought my brother one of those for Christmas. Dammit. I'm thinking of getting him a legacy player jersey for his birthday to make up for it.

TheGreatBuzz Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 I would lean towards the player jersey, though my wife wants one with her name on it. But I wouldn't get one for an active player. Like someone else said, it seems to be a curse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkB452 Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Legacy player (Ring of Fame/ HOF) or IF you have the same last name as a current or former player, go the custom route. My last name is close to a popular player from the 50's. My parents used to have people calling them asking to speak to him when he was playing. Anyways, I have a custom jersey with his number, but spelled with my name (was not going to get a jersey with his spelling and have to keep explaining to my friends that my name was not misspelled). I get asked about it maybe 1-2 times a year at FedEx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renegade7 Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Have a deeper connections to the jerseys I have (Burgundy Sean Taylor and Dark Burgundy Sammy Baugh) then if they were custom. I plan to get a white Doug Williams then be done getting new jerseys, I'm done getting current player jerseys. Was this close to getting a DJax jersey and glad I didn't.

Springfield Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 The fact that we don't have any career Redskins, aka "true Redskins" makes a current player jersey a non-option. Custom jerseys are lame. Legacy jersey is the only real option, but I'm done with jerseys for now, honestly. Snyder can suck a fatty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popeman38 Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 I just bought a 10 jersey a couple months ago....for $6.99. The feelings from that season are totally worth $6.99. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 I did both with one jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDoyler23 Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Custom jerseys aren't for me. I'm sure everyone has been burned with a "Haynesworth" or RG3 disaster of a jersey, but that's what happens if you don't go for a classic player. Out in public, I respect someone accepting the risk and rocking a Pryor jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PleaseBlitz Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Haven't bought any official Redskins merch since 2005. I refuse to give Snyder any money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Springfield Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Hmm, what do I have... Between my wife and I: Archeletta Orakpo (won it in a raffle) Landry Taylor Cooley Portis Moss Bruenell Campbell Randle El Griffin Only one of the above that's worth a **** is Taylor, maybe the Portis or Cooley also, but the rest are bunk.

Kosher Ham Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 I have NEVER bought a current player jersey. I have : Green (20 year throwback jersey) Butz Manley Moseley Taylor Monk and Riggins. All burgundy. No reason to ever buy a new one. I would consider getting a Mann or Jacoby jersey though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Springfield Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 I saw a guy at a Caps game once. He had an Alexander Semin jersey, except it didn't say Semin on the back, it said Jiz. That was a good one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjfootballer Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 I have mostly players from the 80s. I do have a Cooley that was free, so yeah, I'll take it. If I ever get another jersey again, it will be #88, Doc Walker. We share the same last name. But I doubt I'll buy anymore. Hell, most of the time, they sit hanging in my closet, collecting dust.
