Jersey Ordering Question


Edward Teach

Recommended Posts

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.

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.

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

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 ;)

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.

    • I mean, yes, there is a difference between looking at a box score and watching film.  But PFF has a big subjective aspect to some of their grades.  That's how you get a 2/4 being better than 3/5 with a TD.  You aren't using stats at that point or factual events, but subjective analysis of plays.   And it's not like it is the same subjective analysis applying across all the players.   Same guy grading BY's incompletions (which are putting him over the top) isn't grading everyone else's incompletions and completions.  So it's different subjective takes/viewpoints applied.  There is no way everyone at PFF views grading out a play the same.  Then it all dumps into the same spreadsheet.  Hit the sort button.  Sometimes I feel it gets really weird and and collective data starts saying some weird stuff that just isn't true.   
    • Yeah, Sanders had a very nice debut preseason performance but the folks acting like he's arrived based on that performance are getting way out ahead of themselves.
    • I won't be surprised if Graham disappoints. Maybe not outright bust but never lives up to his draft status. The more I watched him at Michigan the more I came away impressed by the other Michigan DT. I think he might be the real player. Usually when you have two high level prospects in the same college unit one of them ends up getting fraud checked in the NFL as being largely carried by the other guy. Peppers and Ryan Sims at UNC comes to mind. Lavar Arrington and Courtney Brown at Penn State, etc.
