HELP! JERSEY CURSE

by P.Sharif on Aug 28, 2011 6:50 AM EDT

ok guys, i have a dilemma... Every jersey that i purchase, it tends to curse the player and leaves me with yet another Bills jersey that i will never wear. I was looking to purchase another one....i want to get a Stevie Johnson or CJ Spiller Jersey but i think my superstitous side is kicking in.... WHAT SHOULD I DO??? JERSEY'S I HAVE IN MY CLOSET: 1) DREW BLEDSOE (purchased before he lost his job) 2) WILLIS MCGAHEE (traded) 3) JP LOSMAN (lost his job to trantative checkwards) 4) TRENT EDWARDS (released) 5) MARSHAWN LYNCH (traded) 6) LEE EVANS (purchased this last year when Trent was released) ALSO....ANYONE KNOW A PLACE WHERE I CAN GET SOME OF THESE JERSEYS RE-STITCHED WITH A DIFFERENT NAME??? MAYBE I SHOULD PUT MY OWN NAME ON SOME OF THESE JERSEYS I HAVE....

Just another great fan opinion shared on the pages of BuffaloRumblings.com.

Thurman, Kelly, Andre Reed or Bruce Smith

Are all great jerseys to have.

Why don’t you start picking out jerseys of people we want to get rid of…. Start w/ Chris Kelsay and if this works and you do have a gift all of us rumblers should chip in and help you buy the jerseys.

I just ordered....

a personalized with the number of one of my past favorites, Charlie Romes… I figure I’ll never be cut from the team…

Optimistic??? Of course I am!! I'm a Bills fan, and as of right now, we are undefeated on the regular season!!!
Things are truly looking up!!!

MAN! That is really digging into the past. #26 wasn’t he? (That’s without doing a Google search).

We’ve waited this long whats another year? hahahaha

My suggestions....

step on a crack….
break a mirror…
walk behind a ladder…

Dude, buy any dang jersey you want….theres no such curse.

Before you have your name added to a jersey please put my name on your insurance policy. jk

I agree with Dareurush above. Dump the curse thoughts and pick any player you want.

Year two is upon us.

Solution to the curse

Buy a throwback jersey of a retired bills player. they aren’t going to be traded to another team any time soon.

Does this work in reverse? Say you buy a jersey of someone on another team, will they get traded to the Bills? Do you realize the potential power you wield?!!?!?!?!

Great point!

I suggest Troy Polamalu or Aaron Rodgers. Either of those names would look great in Red, White, and Blue!

Don't get an OJ Jersey

yes a curse can go retro-active like that…

Thanx for the advice… I guess I’ll just order a a Jim Kelly, cant go wrong there…… Not going to risk putting my name, my net worth is too much to risk lol.

Personally I am trying to hunt down an old school Don Beebe jersey.

Jerseys need to be viewed as collector's items...

No player plays forever. Eventually, that jersey you purchase is going to bear a name of a player that no longer plays on the BIlls’ roster. So buy whoever you want. Where the jersey while they’re on the roster, and hang it on the wall of your mancave as a keepsake when the player departs. Or just continue to wear it. It’s still a Buffalo Bills jersey.

wear, not where

That’s rough, man. My jersey story is similar but not as bad. I got Lynch, then that week he was arrested for gun possession. I got Spiller, then he changed his number. Last year I got Evans, who got injured that very week and never played another down for us.

At this point my advice would be a classic throwback, or a customized jersey.
