I see tons of people with their own name and number on Flyers jerseys every game. To each his own, it's their money, but I personally think it's very lame.

Can you give me a shirt of this song too. Its just so great

CIRCUS MAXIMUS !!!!!!


Lifeless I sail through these ironic fashions
Dressed in the flesh of the jokers— passions
On the uttermost brink of madness I stroll
And the rise of insanity - as my most precious goal
Quilted in feathers, deranged and worn
I fly with the flock of my vanity torn
Tricking the trail of my long lost obscurity
I gather me inside the artifice of eternity...

This^^^
I like players name and # and I don't care if the player is current. My most recent jersey is a Recchi.
I don't like the RBK jerseys and don't see myself buying one anytime soon.

That is not a bad point.

But it makes you old

We all know Opaliski is one big egotisitical b@stard.


p.s. seriously? B_astard is in the swear filter?

F@rt is in the swear filter. ****.

Anyway, I voted blank because I seem to have this jersey curse where people get traded as soon as I get their jersey.

Also, I'm not sure there are that many "bootleg" Flyers jsys out there as hockey jsys are generally a bit more oomplicated to produce and hockey is not that popular with consumers en masse

Most likely these sports jerseys are knock-offs (unauthorized copies) shipped in from overseas. These fakes usually come with poor quality materials and inferior manufacturing processes. Bad stitching, faded colors, off-sizes, and all-around cheap appearance are common characteristics of the counterfeit jersey.

These same unscrupulous vendors have gone high tech by selling their fake merchandise on the internet. If you want to try your hand at buying that favorite sports jersey at one of the online auctions - think again! It is estimated that up to 95% of the Mitchell & Ness throwback jerseys sold on eBay are counterfeits.

Law enforcement agencies are starting to police these fake sports jerseys and the vendors that sell them. The counterfeit jerseys are being confiscated and the vendors arrested. Selling or manufacturing counterfeit jerseys is a very serious crime. Penalties for a first offense are a fine of up to $2 million and 10 years in prison. A second offense virtually doubles these penalties.

Despite these efforts, there is still a huge black market for the counterfeit jerseys. The policing agencies are just not staffed up to stop the large inflow of these fake jerseys coming in from overseas.

Really? It's actually quite common.

All you have to do is do a quick search on eBay. There are tons of them and they're horrible.

How about this one? Or this masterpiece? That was just the ones I found on the first page. And that's just eBay. There's literally hundreds of other stores online that ship counterfeit jerseys from overseas and sell them dirt cheap. Sometimes, it's a good deal. Sometimes, they look like the stuff you get on eBay. It's a crapshoot. I think its a safe bet that someone selling an "authentic" jersey for under $75 might be trying to sell you a counterfeit jersey.

I know that curse all to well...maybe I'll get a Briere jersey that being said

Hey, kind of related to this topic. I have a Richards jersey that I bought at the Wachovia Center last year. The ones you buy there are ironed on. The nameplate on the back is coming off in areas, and I tried re-ironing on to get it to stick again, but it is not working. Does anybody know if they can fix that at the Wachovia Center where they do the personalizations? Or does anyone have any other suggestions?

I can see the market demand for bootleg Crysbys in Pittsburgh, particulary as they went deep into playoffs last year. However, the fact that fake junk is generally available online doesn't mean Flyers fans who attend games actually purchase them in significant numbers. In Philly, the bootleg jsy problem is moreso for Eagles (faded falling apart Desean Jacksons) and to relatively lesser extent Phillies (way too small nameplate font Utleys) from what I see at their respective venues, in the parking lots and round town.

For the majority of Flyers fans, I give them much credit for spending their $$$ on official authentic or replica jsys blank or otherwise. For the record, I have never seen a Flyers fan wearing a fake Sand Knit electrical tape-numbered hockey jsy .

We were at the Islanders-Flyers game the other night and I was having a discussion with my friend as to why anyone over the age of 13 would get a jersey made with their own name/number on it.

I would rather have a blank jersey than put my own name on one. I can't imagine what would possess someone to put their own name on a professional sports jersey. It seems kinda ridiculous. Unless you're playing in a bar league or using it for practice or something, that I could see. But to wear to a game? I understand that players come and go, but why would you do that?

For the most part, it seems universally frowned upon, but I was wondering what people here thought about it.

I was also astounded at not only how many bootleg jerseys I saw, but also how astonishingly bad some of them looked. Wrong fonts, wrong colors, iron-on patches and numbers. I can see why they sell for so cheap on eBay.

I'm glad to see you picked a hard-hitting topic for discussion. What is this, a middle school discussion where we are picking on people for what's on their jerseys or the quality of jerseys?

Did someone make fun of your Garanimals in middle school or something? Lighten up. We have tons of silly topics on here. I thought it was an interesting departure from this week's additions to the Biron Sucks and Fire Stevens threads.

If it really bothers you, you could ask a mod to move it to Miscellaneous.

As someone who personally spent a lot of money on my jersey to get it properly customized, I have an interest in jerseys other people have. I like to compare them because it was very expensive and I like confirmation that I got my money's worth.
