They are awful. I'll be sticking with the Reeboks for a loooong time.

A uniform change, a cool throwback, or a big player acquisition would be my only motivation to buy a Nike jersey. they are horrible.

The authentics and replicas fit very differently.

bigdan.. that is an absurd statement... paying $40 for a jersey in China instead of giving Nike $200 leaves me with an extra $160 to spread around the US economy.. paying $200 to Nike does absolutely nothing to help our economy... so the statement can be made that saving $160 on something as stupid as a shirt with numbers on it by buying it from China is actually a GOOD thing for the economy....

When Nike starts charging a fair price (say $75) for their authentic jerseys, i will happily buy in the states...

(that said - with the money i saved, i actually bought a few of the new Nike t-shirts the other day... love that quick dry fabric!)

I guarantee half the sh!t you own is made outside the country, including all of your clothes. Shut up.

I think buying American is great and we go out of our way to buy it when we can.

But can you honestly tell me you don't have things in your house that were made in China? Maybe you don't but I would be shocked.

i could care less about supporting some overpaid person in the US that is a union member making the same item that is made overseas at 1/8 of the price. do you really think i care about some 10 yr old working in a sweatshop for peanuts? the UNIONS are destroying america.

If you're over the age of 12 and you wear a shirt with another man's name on it, you're pretty much gay.

Almost as gay as using another mans name as your online account.
