Who is the bigger weirdo between these two?

The guy who dresses up as a comic book hero and goes to comicon, or the guy who puts a team jersey with another guys name on his back and goes to games?

They're debating it on 97.1.

Let's see, one lives in a fantasy world, the other lives his fantasies vicariously through other people.

Comicon guy is absolutely the bigger weirdo.

nedgo?

How about the dude who dresses up I. Stupid Zumma pants for and done a sombrero for spartan football games. Nothing abnormal going on there.

I dress up in a Lance Armstrong yellow jersey and tailgate in Bob's backyard.

I bought a Lance Armstrong jersey even though I don't have a bike. Because I'm ironic.

I thought the choice was going to be between blanch and Potato Cakes.

That answer is clearly both. It's almost like they are the same spastic dork.

So, some random guys name on the jersey, like a buddy, or the name and jersey of a guy on the team?

I find it pretty funny that people get worked up over the whole jersey thing.

I find both equally as baffling..

Brodson.

Do people on a sports radio station in Michigan actually have the right to call anyone else a weirdo?

It's definitely between Brodson and Guest

That guy Guest is cooko for CocoPuffs

How many Jerseys with guys names on it do you own and wear into games?

Come clean now.

By the way, Personally, if you remove them from their element: Jersey guy from the stadium and comic book hero guy from the comicon convention, and place them in a mall somewhere, I believe the comic hero guy gets more weird glances.

Hahaha. Where is all this coming from?

I put my own name on the back of a jersey, wore it to corner of Michigan and Trumbull and got asked by Sparky to get my ass out in left field and shag some!

Signed,

Guest

Starting from the beginning

Favre (turncoat, washed up, went to vikings   ), purchased

Jennings (turncoat, washed up, went to vikings   ), purchased

Cobb   

Also,

Patrick Sharp    (less so in these playoffs). Last year, won as part of a season ticket holder promotion

Dave Bolland   

Also have a Greg Steimsma Celtics jersey that I wear with black hi tops and jean shorts.


That last one is a lie, but it makes me laugh to think about dressing up like Roundhead.

Wrong thread...

Dress like Roundhead? How do used car salesmen dress?

Glorifying something that doesn't exist seems "weirder".

Wearing a real player's jersey is honoring/rooting for them.

You just seem..I dunno, cooler than all that WTF

Than all what? I don't think someone wearing a jersey is all that crazy. Hockey fans are the biggest proponents of this, and hockey rules.

And I always tuck my jersey in, to keep it more, you know, classy.

I'm cooko? No, my good sir, I'm "Cuckoo" for spelling and grammar... and banging your mother in the anus.

Yet another gets snookered, but at least he can spell.

Ambiguous means "really really super totally" right?

So are you waiting to see if Abbrederis makes the team before plopping down the cash?

I usually prefer to get a jersey of a guy who signs a moderately long term contract so that the jersey is applicable longer, and I try to go for the guy who's not the #1 guy (Fav-ruh being the exception). So Abby fits number 2, but number 1 is a stretch.

And all of my jersey's have been from China, so $42 a piece. No huge investment.

People dress up at ComicCon because it's fun and because they like dressing up. Why are you making fun of them instead of being happy that, for one weekend a year, you don't have to interact with these guys and gals because they're mingling with their own kind?

I don't wear my jerseys anymore, but I have the MSU Pro Combat one from 2011 and a team-signed jersey from the 2008 season. Travis Key got it signed for me! AWESOME.
