Jersey Numbers

[ice grillin you]

two months after their orginal rookie number was picked?

[Wingspan]

no clue. but they certianly sold jerseys (maybe not white's).

pinkston wore #17 in his rookie camp, and it was changed before the season started

[Beermonkey]

yeah but i dont think they would even allow that...once a jersey goes on sale thats it...no switching numbers....it may be that rookie jerseys dont go on sale until the final roster is set tho...i dont know about this

I believe that Sean Taylor did that, much the anger of the jersey-worshipping Skins Romes.

wow...thats awful

guess ill be waiting until after the season starts to get my bunkly johnson

I want to get an Avant on the back of my TO jersey as well.

I guess i'll have to do the same to my old school Billy McMullen jersey.

Where can you get new nameplates put on at? I want to get an Avant on the back of my TO jersey as well.

Is there such a business? I always thought that would be a good thing. Charge like $20 for a jersey update.

[ice grillin you]

mom and pop type places will do it for you....ive always used dennerys in the northeast....never did a football name plate but they done hockey jerseys for me

[MURP]

I think "Hello, Sports Fans" over in Cherry Hill is another place that will do that.

You'd think that would be a pretty lucrative business considering free agency hits people hard with all the player movement.

[Susquehanna Birder]

That's what I figured, Lad. Seems like it could be a decent Internet business.

Thanks for the suggestions, IGY and Murp. Unfortunately, I'm not close enough to those places. 

[MURP]

just give it to me at one of the tailgates and ill take it over and bring it back at the next tailgate.  I gotta get my Simon jersey changed over at some point anyway.

the reason its not a huge business is that most people dont have authentics and you wouldnt/couldnt do this on most replicas...for one a lot of replicas arent stitched and two with replicas being so cheap you might as well just buy a new one

[MURP]

I was under the impression they could do the replicas as well.  Guess I better investigate further. 

[Susquehanna Birder]

The replicas I have do have the nameplate stitched on there.

I see there is a "Hello, Sports Fans" in Peddler's Village. I have to run to Glenside tomorrow...maybe I'll take a run up that way and talk to the folks.

some replicas you can...if the letters or plate is stitched....but its not cheap to switch out nameplates...and many times you can get great deals on replicas...so you just get a new one
