Isn't that against the law? One of the three main honchos on KingsFans.com and no Kings Jersey's? Brick, ya gotta correct that oversight. Heck my grandkids ALL have Kings jersey's (Pedja, Pollard and a generic) and they live in San Diego!!! :D
I have a black fleece pullover with a small little tasteful Kings emblem over the heart.

Of course I didn't buy that either. ;)

Everybody has their own sense of style, but buying/wearing a professional (or amateur) athlete's jersey just isn't my style literally or figuratively. Athletes are not my heroes, I'm not particularly a wannabe pro athlete, and I have no idea when/where I would wear such a thing. I buy Kings gear for friends and family as gifts, and might have a few trinkets around (wristbands etc.). Franchises are very lucky to have superfans like Kingsgirl around, because if you were counting on me to keep you afloat with jersey purchases...

Current or former Kings? The trades have kind of thinned my current Kings down. I only have Brad, Bibby, Bobby, Peja (an OLD Corliss, which probably counts now, since he is back on the team, except it's a #4) Peja, Bibby, and Bobby I have in both the 'new' style and the old ones. Oh, and Martin, home and away.
Heck, I have 6 different Webber jersies alone (home/away old style, home/away and black in the no longer new style and one Warriors jersey I picked up at a yard sell)
2 Vlades, 2 Pollards, Hedo, Clark, Hurley, 2 Williams, Richmond and I forget the rest, too lazy to go look:D
(it's only half the closet, BTW)
Holy.


I've got a Hurley and a Webber.

Let's face it fashion style be damed, it's sentamental atachment to a player that is not your style Brick.

Even if they were available in this part of the world, I still probably wouldn't buy a jersey. Not really my style either, eventhough I love this team. Same thing goes for autographs of players or any celebrity for that matter... to it's just ink on paper. However, I'm glad these type of things means more to others than it does me.

Some truth to that, although I do keep old tapes, articles and tributes etc, to players.


Think its just that my outsized ego precludes hero worship of any kind...unless of course its me that's being worshipped. :p

I've got four different Vlade's, one Webber and one Christie. All four Vlade's I received as gifts. I bought Webber and Christie jersey's immediately after they were traded. ;) I guess I never realised how much I liked those guys until after they were gone.

I will be in the market for jersey's #10, #16 and #52 when either:
a) Bibbster starts playing D, Pedja starts playing really, really hard and/or Brad stops whining, or
b) when they get traded :).

I don't wear them around every day or anything:p I wear them to games over another shirt (I'm a girl, I can get away with that) I also wear a purple pom-pom in my hair and I can say with absolute certainty that Brick wouldn't wear that either:D
We won't get into autographs.

I have the webber purple jersey (way too big though... b/c I won it)

Two of my favorite things are my Kings blankey AND my Kings long-sleeved t-shirt, both gifts from wonderful people here on this board!

I have numerous Kings t-shirts and sweatshirts but limited jerseys. I have a Reggie jersey (somewhere), a Doug Christie jersey and a Mike Bibby jersey. I never got a Vlade jersey... I may have to change that. I have a couple of bears, I have lots of Budweiser Kings stuff, old calendars, a framed picture of Kings "kids", bobbleheads, posters, beads, a couple of ceramic Kings mugs, a Kings banner, and the Sports sections of the Bee that contained important Kings articles. (I go through them every year and sort out the good stuff.) I have purple nail polish that I wear all year... And a fantastic drawing by a local artist of a little baby dragon - purple of course - holding a cow bell and wearing a Kings t-shirt. It goes with my picture of a big purple dragon with the slogan: "Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup."

And, I have a grand-daughter whose middle name is spelled with a K, because K is for Kings.

:D
