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.

    • The ball keeps getting pushed down the field. Most of the 2nd rounders won't get full guarantees but they'll get a good chunk of the contract guaranteed. So let's say it's 75%. At the end of the day we're talking about a couple of million over the course of a four year deal. Basically a rounding error in terms of salary cap impact. It's much ado about nothing. 
    • Agents only have the upper hand if they think/expect the teams to cave in the end, but that 30 of the 2nd rounders remain unsigned, it shows the Agents might not have it in this case.  A 2nd round pick isn't going to sit out their rookie season as a holdout to re-enter the draft the next year and improve their draft stock and/or ability to stick in the NFL, you really need to be an elite QB prospect to even have the remote chance of doing that successfully. Teams have to draw a line somewhere, if they all say the line is the 1st round, then there isn't much the Agents can do about it if the teams all hold firm, which they should. And yes, you're right about the rookie wage scale, which is exactly why I don't think the Agents will be winning this battle in the end.  The teams know they already screwed up rookie contracts once, they aren't going to fall down that slippery slope again and let it snowball on it's way down.
    • Then we had some impressive coaches to finish 8th from worst plus all of our injuries.  Titans and Raiders were pretty bad as well.
