But where do you guys put all these jerseys? In your closet or do you have them framed and wallpapered all over your place?
I have adhesive sticky hooks in my family room and bedroom which hold about 35 at the moment, but im running out of wall space.But where do you guys put all these jerseys? In your closet or do you have them framed and wallpapered all over your place?
As a kid/teen i was heavy into hockey baseball cards but i grew out of it, then i worked at a jersey store and got free lettering and build up a very very large hockey jersey collection which ive mostly since soldI don’t collect jerseys, don’t think I even own any except maybe one or two I’ve played in and kept for nostalgic reasons (college team, one particularly fun men’s league team I played on later.) It’s not the worst thing to collect though.
Its a hobby/collection that i understand many people dont get. Especially when it involves having jerseys of other teams, even ones i dont like.The closest I've ever gotten to owning a jersey is catching one that was given away/thrown at a Leafs game. When I saw that it was a Schenn jersey I found the closest kid to me to give it to him. I might have kept it if it was Kessel or something. Maybe.
Probably not.

Interesting. Dawson as anything but Cubs seems wrong though. Did you get Chris Davis before or after his contract became one of the worst ever ($161 million for -5.8 WAR)As a kid/teen i was heavy into hockey baseball cards but i grew out of it, then i worked at a jersey store and got free lettering and build up a very very large hockey jersey collection which ive mostly since sold
Now as i said, im doing an MLB one, but my targetted buys are pretty much over, and i scour for deals on ebay to round out what i want or find interesting ( San Diego and Minnesota are my only holes) Ideally i like to buy blanks so i can get a player i really like crested, but if i see a really good deal i'll get a player who while i like, isnt my first choice. Ive done this with Chris Davis, Josh Hamilton, Shin Soo Choo and Andre Dawson ( as a Marlin, no idea why Mitchell and Ness chose this over say, Sheffield)

Padres has to be Gwynn, no?
I like the Twins so would have trouble choosing there. I would probably go with someone like Frank Viola. Or maybe Morneau, Mauer, or Molitor (he wasn’t a Twin for long, just one of my favourite players.) I might put Molitor on a Jays jersey actually, if I ever bought one.
Oh I get it. I just never thought to get one myself because I don't know when I'd wear it and I'm not one to hang them on walls and shit. I hung and framed my OHL draft jersey but now that feels silly to me as I get older.Its a hobby/collection that i understand many people dont get.

Are you kidding? That's awesome. I would've definitely done that too.Oh I get it. I just never thought to get one myself because I don't know when I'd wear it and I'm not one to hang them on walls and shit. I hung and framed my OHL draft jersey but now that feels silly to me as I get older.

Where did you hang the termination of contract notice you eventually received, or did that get relegated to the back of the closet? I keed, I keed.

I was gonna just hit the sad emoji button, but this called for an explicit "sorry to hear that, bud."0gp, Mr. Faith. Never even came close. I quit not long after.
