    Christmas Present/Jersey Quandary

    So... my wonderful wife overheard me say that I'd love an LC Greenwood Jersey.

    She tried to track one down, but could not. So she had one custom made. I love that she went that far to get me one.

    The only issue? It's got the new style numbers on it, and LC's name on the back. Can I wear this thing? Is it some multi-generational abomination? Or a link from present to past? Thoughts, feelings, please?

    Happy Whatever You Believe in, guys! Enjoy the day!

      If you want to crush your wife's heart to save yourself from an uncomfortable moment with a Steelers stranger, yea dont wear it.

        Wear it proud. Anyone that would comment negatively on it is a Steeler snob & douchebag. Your wife went the extra mile for you so you should be stoked. Happy Holidays & go Steelers!

            Chadwife got Chadman a "Da Beard" camo shirt- very cool considering I haven't mentioned it at all & she saw the shirt from a Facebook link to Brett Keisel's fan page.


            And then she went to the trouble of having it shipped out to Australia for Chadman in time for Christmas.

            Ahhh....happy days.

              can you even get a old style numbers on a jersey


              IIRC the steelers site itself sells old player jerseys with the new numbers as well

                Steeler teams featuring stat-driven, me-first, fantasy-football-darling diva types such as Antonio Brown & Le'Veon Bell won no championships.

                Super Bowl winning Steeler teams were built around a dynamic, in-your-face defense plus blue-collar, hard-hitting, no-nonsense football players on offense such as Hines Ward & Jerome Bettis.

                We don't want Juju & Conner to replace what we lost in Brown & Bell.

                We are counting on Juju & Conner to return us to the glory we once had with Hines & The Bus.

                  Got the RuthlessDad a Keisel Realtree camo jersey for his birthday. He's worn it to a couple of games this year.



                  Got him a Jordan Staal Black Ice jersey for Christmas yesterday:
