Jersey Ordering Question

[Edward Teach]

I want to order a custom replica jersey from Panthers.com, but I noticed a disclaimer...

"Names of players who retired from the Panthers may not be printed..."

Damn. I wanted to order a blue Sam Mills 51 jersey. What gives? Anyone know? And has anyone else ordered a 51 successfully?

The real question should be if you want your jersey to be high quality or not.

I don't want it to be hot as forty hells...so I want a replica. The authentics (I have several) are too heavy...and I want to wear it, not frame it.

And I don't really give a rat's ass if anyone else doesn't like my jersey.

But, thanks...

I'm sure the NFLPA has something to do with it. Teams and players get percentages of jersey sales. Not sure why you can order a custom jersey with any name on it but can't order one that says Mills. Just tell them your name is Stan Mills and you want a jesrsey with your name on it. Or, actually go to the stadium store and order in person.

You can order one here http://www.nflshop.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3689662 its a premiere not replica though.

Order a 51 Wills Jersey then just get some chick to flip the W and sew it....You are welcome.

I think a lot of throwbacks (not sure about NFL ones) are somehow property of Mitchell & Ness, or they have the rights to them or something like that. I tried to get an Oakland A's Rickey Henderson and they said I couldn't at the MLB shop, and sure enough, Mitchell & Ness sells it.

They have mills jerseys at Carolina place mall at sports fan attic.

That is strange seeing as I ordered an authentic customized Steve Beuerlein jersey from the Panthers shop in July. I know Beuerlein went to Denver for a few seasons after we released in 2000, but I always thought he signed a one day contract to retire a Panther.

Maybe this is only a disclaimer for the replicas? Or maybe I'm the only person who has ever ordered a Beuerlein authentic and it slipped pass the filters ;)

My last name is Mills. Just so happens my middle name is Stanley, SouthCack...

My first jersey was a white 51 Mills replica...

I have a knock-off black 51, but I want a blue one.

I had no problem ordering a custom Mills jersey back in the day... but I still want a Panthers Testeverde one, and that's impossible to find.

I know it has to do with the players getting a cut of jersey sales, but I'm more than happy to let Vinnie have his $$ for my being able to wear a jersey for a team he played on. It's not like I'm trying to get a Testeverde "Mighty Ducks" jersey.

When Carolina qualifies to have "throwback" logos and jerseys available, I'm sure they'll be available on that site. But for now, they're not

I seem to recall seeing Mills jerseys at the Panthers team store at BOA last season too.
