  1. Manchester United - Easily the stupidest of my fandoms :lol: In the movie Eurotrip, the main characters find themselves in a Manchester United supporters bar in London. The supporters are stereotyped soccer hooligans and it's ridiculous and funny. But since it was in the movie and I had no soccer knowledge at all when the movie came out, I thought Man U was fake. Then after I started to get into soccer after watching the 2006 World Cup, I looked towards European football and the Premiership for a team to follow, I found out Man U was a real thing. I was so taken aback by this that they had to be my team. I had no knowledge of their reputation or their record or anything like that, but they were going to be my team. I've learned a whole lot since then, but Man U is still my club.

    you thought Man U were fake? wow, America really is in its own world!

    Yeah I've seen that clip, It's just weird, I would bet every male in Europe, Civilised Asia (South Korea, Japan etc.) and Australia knows who Manchester United are, It's hard to be that good at the world game and go unnoticed.

  2. Green Bay Packers - Well, I got into the NFL after playing Madden 08, through which I learned all the rules. There is a mode in Madden called 'Superstar' where you create a player and play as that player. My guy got drafted to the Green Bay Packers, and the rest is history.

    Western Force - Been a season ticket holder since day one, and have watched this team through all its highs and lows. and I have only ever missed one home game (vs. the Sharks, 2009).

    West Ham United - I have only recently started following soccer, my interest started when I watched Green Street Hooligans a couple of years back, and I have gone for West Ham ever since.

    Vancouver Canucks - My cousins live in BC, and this is there team, so I go for them too!

    Can anybody pick out any distinct differences between these Blake Griffin Jerseys and the official NBA swingmans?

    Why don't we compare? (Second graphic courtesy the NBA Store)

    Sorry I couldn't find a Griffin.

    Collar is off, and there's too much of a red stroke on the Los Angeles script. The LAC is also too low. (It's supposed to be at the tip of the collar)

    Yeah, i checked the nba website but i was under the impression the official nba website images aren't completely accurate (ironic ey).

    Just came to that conclusion when comparing a few older, pre revolution jerseys to how they look in real life. Also, the images on the nba website are very touched up to remain consistent with all the other jersey variants that have to coincide on the same webpage. Also, on the nba website you can't distinctly tell the difference between authentics and swingmans just from the image.

    I noticed the collar was different and assumed it was one of those minor distinguishes that swingman jerseys have compared to the authentics.

    Haha @ Rebel Sport, in their defense, I saw them charging *only" $70 for Lebron Cleveland jerseys. They're getting new Lebrons back in stock end of January. I asked about Blake Griffin but all the staff looked at me blankly. I told them he plays for the other team that plays in Los Angeles. Concluded Griffin jerseys weren't in stock when the new rev 30 swingmans arrived in Australia as they had never heard of Blake Griffin.

    was this there response: there's another team in los angeles?

    I'm going to wait (albeit a long wait) for the official swingmans to reach Australia (we only got Lebrons over here a month ago so Griffs will probably be here mid year) but I was just curious what were the differences between the above because I've never seen the jerseys in real life.

    why don't you buy online off nba.com or something like that? It'll probably cost you around $90 (that's shipping included) with the the aussie dollar the way it is and it'll probably cost about that over here when the arrive, and that said i wouldn't bet that they'll even get stocked at most stores. Also can you believe that rebel sport is still asking full price for lebron james cavaliers jerseys?
