DGivens87 Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 I have this same exact jersey (Nike version), and the lettering on the back is the same. Kinda weird, yeah, but I guess it's because his last name is too long for the back. A large cheese pizza, just for me.New England's source for soccer newsAnd hey, I made it to ESPN!

sacker12 Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 Yep, his name is just like that on the actual game jersey. I've seen it myself a few times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VandyDelphia Mike Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 Happens to this guy too. Part of it also has to do with the Suns' striping pattern though. NCAA Baseball Champions | 2014, 2019 facebook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 Which is why it actually makes sense for basketball jerseys to have the player name under the number in a straight line. All most too much sense. "The views expressed here are mine and do not reflect the official opinion of my employer or the organization through which the Internet was accessed."

TheOldRoman Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 Which is why it actually makes sense for basketball jerseys to have the player name under the number in a straight line. All most too much sense. How would that improve the jerseys pictured? It would have to be a 12 point font for the names to fit across in a straight line in they require such a ridiculous exaggerated arch to fit them on top.

BBTV Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 I think if you took the letters and arranged them straight under the number, you'd be surprised at how close it comes to fitting. I don't think the arch saves much room at all horizontally. If it didn't fit, they'd do it the same way most NFL teams do, with slightly thinner letters for the really long names.

Cianfrocco Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 NFL teams can at least get away with stretching the name onto the shoulders, or even part of the sleeve. Tank tops present a bit of a problem there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TenaciousG Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 The game-worn jersey looks fairly normal with the name going down past the top of the numbers. In my opinion it's a pretty poor replica.
