rival jersey game

MTK · 01-10-2009, 09:21 PM

Ok I know this is gonna hurt, but I thought it would be fun too. If you had to wear a jersey of our division rivals in public, which one would you feel ok wearing? Basically, what player do you admire despite them being a hated rival (current or past)?

Here's mine:

Dallas: Aikman - I always respected the guy, great leader and competitor.

Philly: Westbrook - A mini Marshall Faulk, the guy is so deadly in so many ways

NY: Bavaro - One of my all time favorite non-Redskins players. The guy was just a beast, who can forget this play (check out the hit by Lott later on in the clip too, ouch). As a kid in the backyard I always wanted to be Riggins or Bavaro.

YouTube - Ronnie Lott hit on Mark Bavaro

Oh boy, what a thread Matty. Guess I'll play along.

NYG: LT. Coked up or not, the guy was a great linebacker.

Philly: Randall Cunningham..he was the greatest in Tecmo Bowl

Dallas: I'd go with Emmit here, even though I hate every single Cowboy on the face of the earth

Couldn't/wouldn't even consider wearing another teams jersey.

i would never wear another teams jersey and definetly not a divison rival. there are players that have played on those teams that i respected but would never wear there jersey.

DynamiteRave · 01-10-2009, 09:53 PM

Dallas - Witten. Just because he's a beast TE.

Philly - God. I can't even think of anyone I remotely like on Philly.

Giants - Manning.. Or for shock value... Burress

My fav non-Redskins Jersey to wear right now is Ed Reed with the Ravens though. Every night I curse the fates for not letting us have him on the Skins.

I'd choose an Aikman to..............hang myself...........

Interesting topic.
My favorite non-Skin now is Kerry Collins. Would have liked to see him get a ring this time.

All-time Eagle: B. Mitch or Thrash
Cowboy: Brad Johnson or Babe Laufenberg (I really hate the Cowboys)
Giant: Sam Huff

Wow, I would say the exact same.

LT was revolutionary defender, Cunningham I just always loved to watch, and Emmitt, while dumb as a box of rocks, is a proud Florida Gator like myself.

On the flip side - say you lost a bet to a fan of the division rivals, and you were forced to wear your LEAST favorite player from each team (nauseating, I know).

Mine would be:

Dallas - a toss up between Michael Irvin and TO. Two classless, lousy, me-first assholes.

Philly - McNabb. No doubt about it. I absolutely can't stand the dude. 2nd would be a TO Eagles jersey.

Giants - Eli Manning, with Jeremy Shockey as a VERY close second.

EternalEnigma21 · 01-10-2009, 11:06 PM

ok, if i had to wear one, or who do i respect?

Dallas:
Current: Marion Barber.

Past: Mel Renfro

NY:
Current: toughest one.... Chris Snee. damn i really hate the giants.

Past: LT Probably the best defensive player in nfl history.

Philly:
Current: McNabb.

Past: Jawarski

NYCSkin · 01-10-2009, 11:11 PM

I'm gonna go old school on all three...

Philly--Harold Carmichael or Mike Quick. Always secretly liked both of them.

Giants--Phil Simms

Cowboys--This is the tough one. But because of the "California Quake"--the greatest touchdown dance ever--I'll say Butch Johnson...

DFI · 01-10-2009, 11:19 PM

man what a thread....
I can't imagine ever wearing one but if I was forced to:
Giants-Eli or perhaps LT
Philly-Bill Bergy
Dallas-staubach

now that i have even considered this I must go shower

jamf · 01-10-2009, 11:19 PM

Eagles: Jurgenson or Monk
Cowboys: Eddie Lebaron
Giants: Sam Huff or B.mitchell

Daseal · 01-10-2009, 11:36 PM

Philly: Brian Dawkins.
Dallas: Moose
NYG: Strahan

Schneed10 · 01-10-2009, 11:40 PM

Eagles: Brian Dawkins. I've never seen a player play with so much passion, and he's a great leader.

Giants: Phil Simms. Nice guy.

Cowboys: Jay Novacek. Always felt he was under-appreciated, and another good guy.
