Anyone ever own a jersey of an infamous player?


Recommended Posts

The year we signed Olsen I refrained from buying his & left it to the family as a Christmas gift. To the point that I expressed if the only gift I open is a G-reg jersey then I will be perfectly happy. Come Christmas Eve, I got my jersey but my inlaw that bought it was a tad slow. Instead of an 88 jersey, I got a 2…. Clausen… 

 

I did also lose my very first ever Panther jersey, Starter, got it at TJ Max for $20. Was dating a waitress at a sports bar in ‘03, let her wear for Sundays, we split, never saw her or that jersey again…. #14, Reich…. Smmfh…..

Not really infamous, but I have a Reebok Peppers jersey.  After he left, I put it in storage for when he retired.  Was glad he came back, but I can't fit it anymore lol.  Tip for any player who gets traded, keep the jersey eventually it will be vintage

Same scenario. Had a super nice authentic white peppers jersey. When he came back I wore it with pride.

I don't see anything wrong with 99% of the names listed here for jerseys as they all did the best they could to represent the Panthers and they gave it their best shot. The only one I would call infamous would be anyone wearing a Rae Carruth jersey as he is scum of the earth as his son still suffers to this day from that piece of garbage's evil act not to mention some parents who dealt with the loss of their daughter. To hell with that guy. I still hope he is dealt a very serious and painful punishment while here on earth for the crap he pulled that night all those years ago. He wrecked many lives and took a life. Burn in hell and I hope you get brain cancer wherever you are Rae you waste of oxygen piece of poo. They should have fried your ass long ago.

Same, but I have 2, a black and a white.

I also have Rae Carruth"s gane-worn glove framed with my signed Lathon jersey and Sam Mills-signed hat. I got it pre-murder and just never taken the framing apart.

I have a Keyshawn Johnson jersey.

Funny, or not so funny at the time, story about Key jerseys: When the Panthers signed him, I was very excited and ordered a black jersey online. Before that one arrived, I went to the mall and they already had his jersey in stock, so I bought a white one - my least favorite jersey color. THEN, less than a week later I ran across a blue one somewhere else and bought it. My wife still gives me a hard time about buying 3 Johnson jerseys when he only wound up playing for us for 1 year.

    • I think he did a solid job.  Honestly I liked his post game interview the best.  He gave himself a C and said he left a lot out on the field.  That kind of attitude can carry him far.
    • This is lacking a fairly considerable amount of context. For one, Adams(age 22) started 12 of 16 games, had 38 rec, 446 yds and 3 TD's on 66 targets(18 less, with 2 less games started). The main thing missing here is that the top two WR's for Green Bay that year combined for about 2800 yds and 25 TD's. Now if you want to throw a more accurate dart at Adams, take a look at year two. This year the production was spread around considerably and Adams didn't stand out from that pack(pun not intended).  So, if XL struggles mightily this season, I would probably keep that comparison in your quiver to counter argue. I would suggest that I don't think that scenario is probably very accurate for most HOF caliber WR's taken in the first round over the past 15 or so years. Adams was the 89th pick overall, as well. A little different hill to climb than XL, although not massively.
    • to clarify I am not referring to Will Levis.  Not knowingly.   I just made that up and tried to use a reasonable guesstimate of what else was done.  That sounded in the ballpark.  At one time I did look it all up and there were several teams that had much more successful days downfield.   If that happened to be Levis' actual numbers than it's more of a lucky coincidence.  If memory serves, it wasn't just Will Levis that brought the claim into question, it was SEVERAL teams had better days.  and you are missing my entire point of the subjective nature of it all.  If PFF employee Doug watched Bryce's film and then used his same unique subjective vantage point to grade all 31 other starting QBs.  Then dumped into into a spread sheet, it would a subjective Doug take but at least it would be a level uniform subjectivity.   The grades are done by various people.  All watching and applying their own subjective view to a play.  Everyone isn't going to grade incompletions out the same.  Or completions.   So when you dump it all into a spread sheet and hit sort.....it's not actually a statement of fact as portrayed.  Which is why you sometimes get some head scratching stuff.  I'm not reframing anything.   I don't think.  I just wasn't going to look it all back up so I was talking vaguely off the general issue I have with PFF and treating any random claim they make as the truth.
