a Spurs fan who wants to buy a Kobe jersey

[phyzik]

OK, my Co-worker is telling me he wants to go get a Kobe jersey. I told him no real Spurs fan would buy ANY laker jersey. The dude spends like $10,000.00 on Spurs season tickets and swears up and down he just likes Kobe and not the Lakers. I say its fine to like Kobe as a Spurs fan but dont go buy his F'n jersey! He is not buying it as a collectors item BTW, he is planning on wearing it. Big difference imho.

Do you think, like I do, that its just not right that a Spurs fan wants a Lakers jersey or are you OK with it?

Laker fans, would you sport a Jersey of any player from the Spurs, or maybe worse, Boston?

not true.
i bought a sasha jersey yesterday and i'm a real spurs

[samikeyp]

Tell him that if he likes Kobe but not the Lakers, he could by a Kobe Team USA jersey.

[Allanon]

Boston, no, never. I do have a Duncan jersey, thought about a Manu jersey and may get a Parker jersey.

I never wear them though.

[I. Hustle]

Tell him if he likes Kobe and not the Lakers then he can just rape a white girl.

[I. Hustle]

Tell him if he is a Kobe fan and not a Lakers fan he can tell Shaq how his ass tastes

[manufan10]

is it ever ok for a grown man (nonathlete) to wear a jersey?

I think if you're wearing one to a game, or you're going to watch a game it's ok. Or if your team you root for just won the championship. Just to wear it out in public for the sake of it.. it's questionable.

[manufan10]

tell him that if he likes kobe but not the lakers, he could by a kobe team usa jersey.

+1

[baseline bum]

The only Lakers jerseys I'd ever wear would be Magic and Wilt.

[I. Hustle]

Tell him that if he likes Kobe but not the Lakers that he could cheat on his wife with a Lakers girl.

Depends on a few things. How old is he? Most grown men don't really wear NBA jerseys around, any self respecting ones anyway (my opinion). If he's in his early 20s, maybe. But if he has Spurs season tix then he lives around SA so where is he going to wear it anyway? I have a Rasheed jersey but wear it only at home or to games. I live in Detroit and I still dont wear it around in public. So is he just buying it just to have it? If it's just for memorabilia and he like frames it, that's ok I guess.

i would never buy a spurs jersey... i would piss on boston jerseys ..... i would only buy a bowen fullerton jersey..... since that is my alma mater.... as far as your friend goes...there is nothing wrong with wearing the jersey of the best player in the league

[LakeShow]

I definitely would not buy a Spurs or Celtics jersey but If I had one, i would wear it. I would even play ball in it. It would be great for cleaning the garage, yardwork or working on my car.

[21_Blessings]

I'd wipe my ass with a Celtics/Spurs jersey

Your opinion sucks.....just like your team.


For the co-worker who claims to be a Spurs fan and wanting to spend cash on Blowme Bryant: shoot him straight through the head.

[JamStone]

LOL... sensitive.

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

I once asked my parents if I could buy a Kobe jersey. They were mad at me the rest of the day.

[koriwhat]

who gives a ?

i like kobe and not the fakers but i wouldn't buy a jersey and only because i don't wear jerseys. i'd buy his shoes though if they looked decent which they don't. he used to have some killer hurachies(sp?) back in the day that i wanted from like '05.

NFW I would buy a Kobe Jersey. If I was going to buy a "Team USA" jersey it would be LeBron's. I might buy an Ariza Jersey if it was on sale or something.

Is it wrong to be a fan of a player on a team you don't like or root for?

[TampaDude]

No...not wrong at all...you can be a fan of an individual player, even if he's not on your favorite team. For example, I'm a huge Gators fan, so I'm a Joakim Noah fan, even though he plays for the Bulls.

I see you're trying to pull the "my co-worker" card. Enjoy your Kobe jersey
BTW, one of "my co-workers" wants to buy Duncan's

[TDMVPDPOY]

No fan should sport a jersey from a player in another team, IMHO. At the least, it definitely shouldn't be a rival, or same division.

It's acceptable to wear throwbacks/retired players of other teams, unless they are classic rivals (Lakers/Celts, Red Sox/Yankees, etc etc)

[HarlemHeat37]

Owning a Lakers jersey is the equivalent of owning Nazi memorabilia..
