Terrible Jersey Hall of Fame: Mike Hampton Rockies Jersey

I've asked a few sports bloggers for some of their favorite terrible jerseys. This terrible jersey comes from Signal To Noise, whose terrible jersey is of a man who could get injured taking a shower.

Mike Hampton, Colorado Rockies



Owner: Signal To Noise

Year Purchased: 2001

Age When Purchased: 18

Jersey Category: Never Lived Up To The Hype Jersey

Why Is It Terrible: It's a Mike Hampton Rockies jersey. I was thrilled when the Rockies signed him, but he turned out to be just as vulnerable to Coors Field as everyone else, and then after that, he was never the same. I have a really hard time looking at it now, because I think we broke him. I'm just glad I decided against buying the Denny Neagle Rox jersey when that one came up for sale -- although there would have been a great bit of humor value in it.
