Its like people laughing at you for taking your baseball glove to a Royals game. Who gives a crap what other people think. If you want to do it, do it.

Look, the rule is this, if you are in a position to care what people think of what you’re wearing then you should not wear a replica jersey. If you are granted the grace not to care by virtue of age (young or old), intoxication, rabid fandom, necessity (the homeless like sports too) or insanity then said fan should not be judged.

Typically if I see an individual wearing a football jersey out of context, like at the supermarket, then I’ve probably judged him on something other than his sartorial decisions. If you’re some yuppie wearing your Steve Bono jersey to the California Pizza Kitchen, well then, you probably deserve the ridicule, it you’re wearing your Jared Allen jersey with the name scratched out to the Harley Davidson dealership, who am I to judge.

and I wear it to every Chiefs game, whether I’m going to it or watching from home. I also wear it to watch the draft and my fantasy drafts. I think Mike Greenberg wishes he was born a woman.

I mean, I’ve heard this kind of talk from my wife, but not other sports fans.

I wear a jersey every Friday during the season, and when the guys get together for Sunday football games, we ridicule anyone who owns a jersey and isn’t wearing it.

I’ve got no problem with people wearing jerseys at random times. In fact, I saw a guy wearing an LJ jersey the other day (which is always cool here in Arkansas, the land of college sports).

And yet, I (and others) took time to cast a vote and state that opinion in a poll. Ironic.
Must be curiosity and the sense of virtual community created on this blog site…

For one – who cares what anyone thinks of you. Above all, we shouldn’t be ashamed to wear Chiefs stuff no matter the circumstance.

I only wear a jersey on game days (either watching on TV or to Arrowhead), but there’s a reason.

I only have one jersey – good ol’ DT himself. It’s pretty special to me. My mom got it for me somewhere around 93-95. At the time, she couldn’t find an official one with his name on it so she took it to a local sporting goods store and had the name sewn on the back.

Now the numbers are fading pretty badly so it doesn’t have too many washes left in it, but I’m proud to wear it for every game. I’ve actually gotten plenty of compliments on it at the stadium.

But if I would see someone wearing a Drummond jersey this year…well that’s just asking for it.
