Jersey Category: Who Owns That Freaking Jersey?

Why Was It Terrible?: Why was it terrible? It's actually terrible, glorious, and shocking all at the same time, if that's possible. The manner in which it was purchased was quite remarkable. Following a drunken Friday night in Hoboken and the inevitable awful hangover the next day, we somehow ended up at Modell's Sporting Goods. Not really sure why, again, it's pretty hazy. But after rummaging through the clearance bin, I stumbled upon an amazingly ugly, horrendous find: a jersey for the NY/NJ Hitmen, proud franchise of the XFL. What was more interesting was a nightmarish type Gotti guido saw the jersey as well, and had to have it. Well after some hilarious commotion, I walked away with the jersey, but then again, I was battling over an XFL jersey. Also, their logo might be the greatest of all time.

By the way, their original logo was tough to find, but it was basically a mobster, complete with ganster top hat, carrying a football. So amazing, so terrible.

Time to go back into hiding.
