Worst throwback jerseys?

    I was at a high school basketball game the other night, and it's damn near impossible to concentrate as the game is getting out of hand. Every time I look up in the stands, I see this guy with an orange and white No. 20 jersey. I kept thinking it couldn't be, but it was -- a freaking Heath Shuler Tennessee throwback (or maybe just one that had been in the guy's closet for 15 years).
    I didn't know it at the time, but the guy was a parent of one of our local team's players. I'm waiting for the coach to come out of the locker room after the game and he's just standing there talking to others. I had to restrain the laughter every time I glanced at that jersey. Sadly, I didn't have a camera to snap a picture and send it off to Straight Cash Homey.

    Anyway, anybody else seen some awful throwbacks lately? Jerseys that the local Goodwill would throw out if you tried to give them away?

    A friend of mine still has, and wears, a Danny Kanell Giants jersey.

    Of course, I still have an original Zarley Zalapski Whalers jersey, so I can't say anything.

    A guy I know has a Tony Boselli Houston Texans jersey. I've also seen a Kordell Stewart Bears jersey.

    I've still got a Shea Hillenbrand Red Sox t-shirt hanging around here somewhere.

    I would wear a Bill Buckner Red Sox jersey with pride.

    A John Elway Colts jersey would be pretty cool too.

    The Steve Carlton Retirement Tour Collection would be nice — his jerseys from the Giants, Twins, White Sox and Indians.

    And once you finish getting throwbacks, you should pick up a 2007 Tom Glavine or Willie Randolph jersey. ;D
