So this looks “cool” at first glance, but the devil is in the details.
What’s “cool” about it is – you probably forgot to buy a black jersey the first time around even though you supposedly love them so much. You COULD get the new black jersey (which is a better design, but still bad because it is black) – but the new design lacks the blue piping (which is why it looks better.)
So here’s a rare opportunity to get the Old Black design!
Cool! $25 and you get a jersey of some sort…not bad….OH WAIT
…the detail is you need 15 people.
I guess that you could just look at it that it will cost you $375 to get a replica jersey. Media Goon has done worse things.
Or maybe you get a few friends and split the cost…so you each get a replica for like $80 or so and you can give the extra tickets to a kid.
Or you can plan ahead like Media Goon and I do and buy the jerseys when they are available. A jersey purchase is not always about wearing it today. Things become cool over time…..like my black road N E W Y O R K jersey. I bet you wish you had one. Or Mercury Mets. Or Road Swoosh. All terrible, all cool now. I own a St. Louis Blues Martin Brodeur jersey for that reason – I bought it when he was on the team. Now I can wear it to a Devils game and it is cool.
Here is the current black design for those of you who don’t know what the difference is. For example, if you want a Mike Hampton jersey (why?) in a design he need wore…
