Those jerseys are offensive to the eyesight.

But, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and my youngest kiddie wears hers with pride.

I only want to know where to find the matching socks....

To: LadyBuck

they are definitely period pieces

my father played in the 50s for VMI back when they were decent and was drafted by the Giants..I had a couple of his old jerseys

one thing was back then the numbers looked different...sewn on and less symmetrical and bigger

commentators had less accurate glass to watch the game I guess

a lot of the old jerseys were odd looking

and they played on less sophisticate turf in any weather with no roofs

hence muddy like a Rugby match and the needs for loud uniforms was self evident

folks today like flash uniforms...like video games

most things today for America’s average man is vicarious...a small percentage live action any more

fantasy football...fantasy life

grown men playing war on video games

I don;t get it

men were definitely more masculine when I was a boy even physically

i don’t see women being happy with soft pliable men who let them drive

with a username like yours I don’t think I have to explain any of this to you
