I remember when Ginny posted that shirt and commented that you bought one.<br /><br />I was hoping you'd notice that I had one too.

They might have a chance encounter with the player whose jersey they’re wearing. And when Hines Ward scores a touchdown, who does he give the ball to? Someone in the front row that’s wearing his jersey number.<br /><br />(Note: I’m mentioning this because of all the fuss that one sportswriter kicked up this week, writing about how people shouldn’t wear game jerseys. Seriously! Our friend Ginny at That’s Church posted on it as well, drawing scads of comments, pro and con, including comments from both Cassie and me.)<br /><br />You know, Cassie, you could do a whole blog called Nurse Pain, just about your hospital experiences. Because you’re totally that awesome.<br /><br /><b>Red Pen Mama</b><br />I commented there… I almost didn’t, because even aside from the column she referenced, some of the comments on her site had me so pissed off, I might have really went off and added more gasoline to the fire. But I ended up finding an angle I could use, but once again, falling back on Game Jersey Mojo.<br /><br />As a veteran of wearing opposing game jerseys to football stadiums, I have some strong feelings on the subject. Of course, I’ve dealt with them long ago, here on this site. But suffice to say, if you wear a “visitors” game jersey to a game, you have to expect to hear some smack-talk tossed your way. And that’s fine. You should NOT have to worry about being assaulted or stolen from. Ever! We are grownups, and this is a GAME we’re talking about.<br /><br />I say the guy talking about how it’s “inexcusable for a man to ever wear another man’s name on a jersey,” has some severe gender insecurity issues going on… More so than can be dealt with in blog comments.<br /><br />As for Sitcom Kelly, her idea of a Glass Case for Sid, to go along with Letang’s Pit, had me crying in my cube yesterday. One of the funniest ideas she’s ever had. And then once an idea germinates, I’m happy to take it and run with it. I LOVE the idea of putting the party hat <i>on top of the case.</i> (Probably because I love sight-gags in general.) And because in previous posts, we explored the idea of her two captives (Letang and Matt Bahr) fighting over winning her favor, it wasn’t a hard stretch to imagine them fighting for the right to be in The Case.<br /><br />It’s such an absurd world, it’s no wonder I love writing about it.bluzdudehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05991272670722362652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-329507352453931374.post-87334918869971736092011-04-15T12:38:53.547-04:002011-04-15T12:38:53.547-04:00Geez, Bluz, don't you know according to the Sp...Geez, Bluz, don't you know according to the Sports Douchebag Who Will Not be Named that jerseys are stupid? And wearing one in the wrong place can get you in big trouble (like, in a coma)? Use your head, man! (sorry.) Also, some commenters at a Certain Site We Love seem to think they make you less than a man.<br /><br />WTF?<br /><br />Anyhoo, you go with your bad mojo self. I will be putting Michael in his Pens themed baby clothes for the whole run up to the Stanley Cup.<br /><br />And your Sitcom Kelly story had me cracking up.

Just think it looks sharp, and is a fun alternative to the current ones, and a nod to the past.bluzdudehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05991272670722362652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-329507352453931374.post-87290308562087141382011-04-14T20:13:06.603-04:002011-04-14T20:13:06.603-04:00DG,

I thought they looked really sharp. And if they were going to continue with the blue motif, I was hoping they'd use an authentic design. But they ended up cobbling together elements of a number of old styles, to come up with this Frankenstein of a jersey. Which I still bought. Go figure.<br /><br />Out of all, I think my favorite is the same one in the first picture. I just like the look of it, with the Vegas-Gold accents.bluzdudehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05991272670722362652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-329507352453931374.post-33110237703299186162011-04-14T20:05:02.938-04:002011-04-14T20:05:02.938-04:00I have to say, I'm not a fan of either WC styl...I have to say, I'm not a fan of either WC style jersey. I don't know what it is about them. They just don't say "hockey" to me.<br /><br />LOVE LOVE LOVE the pre-lockout Mario. I'm a Geno girl, myslef. Fairly new hockey fan ('08) so I don't feel right wearing jerseys from an era in which I was not a fan. When the winning streak ended and the injury bug bit, I went with the Fluerry T-shirt. Can't miss this season with the flower. (OK, at least since Nov. 12)<br /><br />Also, thanks to Mr. DG, er, Santa, I now own a nice collectin of Pens socks, as well. They are good for mixing up the mojo, when needed.DGnoreply@blogger.com
