In high school, we got to wear our jerseys to class every Friday. After Thursday practice, we would get back to the locker room, and there, hanging at wholesale nike jordan were the game-day jerseys. All clean and shiny and smooth to the touch. The acrylic for the numbers was so thick that you could fold your jersey along the digits and the paint wouldn't crack. We didn't have names on our jerseys, but I can imagine how fantastic it would be to see your last name in block print across the back of a real uniform.
For the next 36 hours or so, the jerseys were ours. We could wear them to dinner on Thursday night (I did). We could do homework in them (I did). We could stand in front of mirror wearing the jersey and nothing else and have very involved sex fantasies about doing horrible things to cheerleaders (I very much did). We could sleep in Cheap air jordans , although I never did that because I didn't want my precious jersey wrinkled for the next day.
I don't know why jerseys had this effect on me and on so many other kids, but they did. They still do. It's just a piece of fabric. Guys aren't even supposed to care that much about clothes because clothes are girly shit. If you're a guy, you're just supposed to focus on cheap air max beers and CRUSHING pussy, brah! But I'm telling you, every kid walking around a high school cafeteria wearing a football jersey feels like a GOD. You feel like you're just moments away from throwing 60 touchdown passes (because coach decided mid-game to switch you over from right guard) and having six homecoming queens fellate you simultaneously. Ordinary shirts don't make you feel the same way. I know. I'm wearing a Hanes Beefy T right now and I feel like a syphilitic hobo.
