I have a fine collection of Bulls and Non-Bulls jerseys and I wear them often. I will be honest, in Chicago, I didn't see alot of people wear jearsys, but I would still wear them all summer (especially last summer when I had my Rose jersey). However, I am someone who is not known for style! In the west coast, it is much more popular, so I have been representing often with a Rose or Gordon jersey. Actually, just last week, I was riding in my convertible with a Rose jersey and some truck pulled next to me and 4 dudes were screaming "YEEEEEEEEEAHHH DERRICK ROSE, GO BULLS!"...For the record, I yelled back, "Don't forget BG!"

Personaly, I feel that the Swingmen jerseys are better for casual purposes then the authentics. The authentics are very shinny and I think look like you spent alot of money on it. It's kinda like the kid who bought the authentic storm trooper outfit. It's a bit over the top. I'd go swingmen and REPRESENT!

I've never owned a basketball jersey, but I have a friend who told me he was going to ask around about finding me a Boerwinkle jersey (either script or the old style shirt like in my avatar). I'd definitely wear that (with a t-shirt underneath), just because of my online identity. I'd love to rock the shirt at a Bulls-Magic game next year. Bet I could show it off on tv.

I'm a grown woman and I wear my Rodman jersey sometimes but not that much, I wear a Bulls hoodie every other day, and every day if my kids don't spoil anything on it. And I really don't give a damn about what other folks think about me wearing my Bulls stuff. My big son (3 years old) already tells everyone he wants to be a Chicicago Bull when he's big, and is really disappointed when I don't wear any Bulls shirt :laugh:

I don't think the taboo applies for woman. At least not in my experience. i've always found a women wearing jerseys (regardless of fit) to be inherently attractive. So more power to you.

I've never worn a jersey in my life, except when I've been playing proper basketball myself. I don't think they are stupid or anything, but you'd just look extremely out of place walking around with a basketball jersey over a tee shirt when you live in England. It's just something you don't do here.

If I were to wear a jersey to a game or something, that'd be my style. Find the most obscure and rare jersey that you can and rock it, as long as it's a nice jersey. That'd be way cooler than walking around like everybody else with a Rose jersey or whoever else is the face of the franchise.

im the same way, the only jerseys I wear with any frequency are my rubio jersey, and my old ryan giggs jersey. Both usually in the comfort of my own home when I have people over for games.

Im pretty content wearing my Bulls jerseys to the bar for reg games, playoff games and on draft day. And I def wear a shirt under the jersey....unless you have some serious pipes, there is no reason to wear just the jersey.

A few commented on the swingman jersey being a good deal...and I'd have to agree. I had Chandler and Wallace swingman jerseys, and they had the patches and everything, so they looked pretty cool. I will probably lean that way with the Rose jersey too.

Anybody seen any Van Lier throwbacks? I'd really like to get that one and have it professionally put into a frame.

Sometimes you can't make this shit up..........









SAN FRANCISCO – Seeking to influence other states and Washington, California air regulators passed sweeping auto emission standards Friday that include a mandate to have 1.4 million electric and hybrid vehicles on state roads by 2025



The California Air Resources Board unanimously approved the new rules that require that one in seven of the new cars sold in the state in 2025 be an electric or other zero-emission vehicle

Not going to blame Obama for this? I am disappointed. I don't see what's so horrible about this, or is it against your freedom to pollute as much as you want?

You don't even realize how much of a bubble you live in. I don't fault you for that. You were born and reside in a nation of socalism where the only thing you know is what the government tells you to do or even allows you to do.



That is why some of us are fighting so damn hard to make sure that we never become a nation like that.

Holy shit, are you out of touch. Do you have any clue about the world outside the US? Or have all the hours watching Faux News rotted your brain with lies and falsehoods. What kind of world do you think is outside the US? What kind of country do you think Finland is? Some sort of communist regime with no freedoms? Please tell me, since you seem so sure about what sort of "bubble" I am living in.



So what exactly is so wrong about this? More cleaner cars! The horror!

Fox News has minimal coverage of world events, but then you can say that about all the major U.S. news networks regardless of their bias.



Finland is part of the "Socialist Union", duh.

Me and IHF dont agree on most things, but with this I can kind of see his point. If I had the money to pay out the ass and deal with limited facilities, id get an electric car but I dont, and the government trying to force me to would just fuck me. I am all for improving our environment and limiting pollution, but this really isnt helping anything and furthermore, its merely trading one type of emission for another as now you are using more electricity.

Exactly! Those cars will run on electricity produced by coal burning plants. Disposal of the batteries after they die is another issue.

I'd never live in California again even if paid to.

Well, at least this is on a state level. And isn't that what the IHF-types want, the federal gubmint away from everything and leave things to the states. So if this is wrong, where should it stop. Is minarchism the way to go for you types?



Don't you think that the infrastructure for electric cars and the technology around the cars will improve in the next 13 years? Prices for these cars will surely come down as well. I am all for actions to lower greenhouse and pollution emissions and if need to come from the state, then so be it.
