Fireplace? In Texas we still have the A/C running.

Shoot buddy, there have been Christmas mornings in the 80's here in Florida.

Lol... Never seen jerseys being sold heavy handed. $100 for screen print, $150 stitch, and like $400 for game. It's also tough to buy jerseys now with free agency lol.

That said, yes, I own quite a few jersies for my pro teams but I was deal hunting like a mofo. I only paid retial twice on some retro Hornets jersies because they couldn't be gotten otherwise.

I will say that in my experience, the fan in jersey penetration is higher at nhl and nfl games with the edge percentage wise to nhl games.

Concessions are hight at any sporting event.

ive never owned a jersey worn by another man. i remember letting girls wear mine. not there is anything wrong with it.

I went on a jersey kick years ago. Got Joe Namath and Doug Williams still in the closet somewhere. Oh, and I got a #42 Ricky Bell for Christmas when I was 5 or 6. Still got that thing storage somewhere.

I'm going to stay with my pats regardless if they choose to kneel. I wish the protesting players didn't kneel. But I not furious at them for kneeling. I will support them regardless. i really hope the officials don't ruin this season with these new rules
