I have a team Canada hockey jersey, but I usually only break it out for the Olympics. If I could find a Gayle Sayers University of Kansas jersey, I would be all over it.

if you're a grown man you should only wear a jersey to a game or a viewing party.

Agreed. I have hockey jerseys for NHL games. During the playoffs I wear them to work on game days occasionally, with a shirt and tie underneath.

I have a couple jerseys:

Tim Brown on the Raiders
Kerry Collins on the Panthers

Neither player is with that team now so I don't wear them.

Fridays before Colts games are unofficial Colts gear days at work.. Probably 20% of the 3000 employees has on something Colts related, with lots of jerseys being worn. I bought one this past season using a gift card I got from buying my TV and only wore it on those days. I was very relieved that Jeff Saturday signed on for 3 more years this week

I'm a big sports fan and I've loved jerseys since I was a little kid playing little league and youth hockey. I like to buy jerseys but, I usually only wear them to games though. I got a Jackie Robinson mitchell and ness this winter, I might wear that on Jackie Robinson day even if I don't go to a game that day.

I've got a Cubs pullover throwback (the blue ones they were rocking in the '80s) that I bought the day after they clinched the NL Central in 2003. I haven't worn it in years, since it's pretty big, even for a tagged large. I've got an alternative Cubs Carlos Marmol jersey shirt my buddy picked up for me at a game in Chicago last year. I'll certainly rock it here and there come April.

I'm probably one of the least conservative dressers around here, but even I think jerseys, for the most part, aren't suitable on grown men outside the confines of a game or some sort of related event.

The only way to make jerseys work is if you actually played the sport wearing them. I wish all jerseys were made like those tight rugby test jerseys so that fat supporters with beer guts can never wear them.

Jerseys belong either to the field or framed on the wall (if you happen to be under 18) and no where else.

I own a Liverpool Home kit (Gerrard) and a Greece Home kit (Charisteas).

I wear them at home only.
