Buying a jersey

115 posts in this topic

In the next couple days, I will be purchasing a Black Ravens jersey. However, I cannot decide which one I should get.


The obvious ones are there.

#52 It seems that most people that have a Ravens jersey have picked this one for obvious reasons. However, I don't know if I necessarily wanna stick with the crowd on that.

#5 While Joe has proven to be huge in the playoffs and is a big time quarterback, I dont know if I really want his jersey.

#27 He is our best playmaker, however Pierce has come on strong and could eventually take over as the feature back.

#20 If his impending free agency wasn't an issue, this would be where I would go. However, my holdup is if he becomes a free agent and doesn't retire. I can't see us having the cap room to retain him and everyone seems to think NE is a great fit for Ed. It would really pain me to have his jersey while he is suiting up for one our most hated rivals in NE (or elsewhere for that matter). If I knew he was retiring for sure, I would pick his jersey.


Now the not so obvious ones

#81 QQQ has been my favorite Raven ever since he joined the team back in 2010. However with his 6 mil cap hit next year, who knows if he will be back.

#92 NGATA is a great name to have on the jersey and is certainly a stud. However, this year he didnt necessarily look like himself

#55 Sizzle

#73 Yanda may be our best player, on the team. He doesn't get the pub because he is an offensive lineman and they don't get much love. I also love Yanda because he is also a Hawkeye. Me being from Iowa definitely adds to my affection of the big man.

#31 Is maybe the biggest hitter in the NFL

What do you guys think?

Your own. I recommend it.

To each their own, obviously, but I cannot stand those jerseys.

You could if you don't go to the Superbowl. :P lol

Or just 1-2 Ravens home games.

I would choose the Superbowl too

#52 should be everyone's first. I'd go with a #31 after that.

52 is always first then 44 31 59 55 5 27 81 but none of these in any special order

Oi. Actually read the little comments you left after the numbers this time (oops?) and if I were you, I'd go with Yanda. It's a cool connection to have and not many people have Yanda jerseys to start with.

That's where I am leaning too... I actually think he may be the best player on the team. Meaning, he does his job better than anyone else

Everyone needs a #52. End of story.

While I agree with the sentiment ( I have a 52) it should not be your first or only since you know he is retiring. Flacco is a good choice or Rice since you know they will be on the team for a few years. My 52 will reitre with the man, to an honored spot in my closet, until I can get a signature. Then it gets framed and hung with my other paraphenalia.

Yup, had a Pollard made about 2 months ago. If not for the mojo the #52 has been giving us the last few weeks, I would have been rockin' #31 lately!

Pierce taking over for Rice - whaa? If anything, I think other clubs would be looking to pick up Pierce.

I'd go with (In order):
- #20
- #55
- #31
- #52

Surprised no one has mentioned Ed Reed, even though he's not playing as well as he used to. But let's face it, neither is Ray Lewis, set aside his great career and how it's ending this year, no disrespect.

Every Ravens fan needs a #52! In the future it will be like a Bears fan wearing a Ditka or Butkus jersey, Steelers fans wearing a Greene or Lambert or Ham jersey, Eagles fans wearing a Bednarick jersey.

You'll never be out of place with a R.Lewis #52 jersey.
