If you buy a jersey with a signature on it -

[flashback]

Do you wear it on game day? Or do you mount that bad boy on the wall?

I burn it in flames, and laugh like a crazy man

Frame it and put it on a wall. I'll buy one to wear. If I had a sig on a jersey and it got ruined by some joker who spilled beer on it and years later it turned out to be something real valuable, I would be a bit ticked off.

Roy Williams signed mine and I wear it........the sig is fading though

Soooo, you're saying I should stop wearing my Scott Laidlaw jersey!?

I thought he was a good back for us. Not great but good. He was more of a blocking back if memory serves. #35 if I remember right.

that WAS a $500 jersey.

that WAS a $500 jersey.

This will probably be taken the wrong way, but many people wear clothes every day that cost much more than $500.

Do what you want with the damn thing. It's not going to make you rich if it's in a frame on your wall.

I was going to say wear a dunce hat.... that is, if you bought it in a store and the player who "signed" it did not indeed do so in front of your face.

If said autographer is a player like Roy Williams or a big name player by your standards, then frame it.

If a middle of the pack player or lower, I say wear it.

It is totally subjective.
I mean, Ngyuen wasn't voted to the probowl but he is sooo worthy of the framed jersey IMHO; but then again to you he may be not as important.

 

[ThreeSportStar80]

Ummm definitely mount it!

 

[jrumann59]

Depends are you hoping to get some money from it? If so you will need a COA for the signature then mount it on the wall. I have a Mike Singletary autgraphed football sitting in cabinet in the garage because I don't want to pay a $100 for a COA

In case anyone in the McKinney/Dallas area wants a custom case for a jersey or whatever sort of memorabilia you have, my father has a woodworking business and does this type of thing. They make some really beautiful stuff.

I have an Authentic Emmitt Smith Jersey and as soon as i can get him to sign it. (i have been patient i've had it for 3 years and never worn it) i am gonna frame it and have it burried with me when i die!

 

[Jimz31]

Frame it.

 

[DallasEast]

What good does it do to obtain something you truly value, only for you to choose not to preserve it?

 

[flashback]

Thank you for all your responses. I guess I need 2 Ware jerseys, the signed one for my office and one to wear on gamedays.
:toast2:

Scott Laidlaw.......wow I thought I was old....

If my Ware jersey was autographed, that sucker would go in a frame. I'd buy a new one to Ware (pun intended).

But that's just me.

Do with it what YOU want. Its your jersey, after all....

i have wondered about wearing a signed jersey myself..glad you asked this.

I have a question of my own.... if you buy "game-worn " jerseys....and you
want to frame it for a room...should you wash it first ??
I got one and man it is rank!!! I am wondering if it washing it would
make it worth less...but maybe last longer...
