This picture was on the cover of the lates Fantasy Football preview issue of Sports Illustrated.

Look at the number font, especially the really thick white outline and weird number 2. It's even on the shoulders!

I think someone already mentioned... But I agree, looks weird. I dont like it at all.

The World Basketball Championship, the Davis Cup, Ryder Cup, Iraq: Every day there's further proof that we, as a nation, are not very good at international competition.

I'm guessing that they didn't have a real jersey for him to put on, and they just threw together this random piece of work for him to take the photo in. Look at the NFL patch on the neckline, even - it looks a bit off kilter and askew.

Besides the fact that this is obviously fake and it looks like a drunk guy made the "2"... I think the white outline looks like crap. Old gold and black is a great color combination, but I just don't think having white as a major part of the uniform works. In my opinion, they should make jerseys like the Raiders, completely ditch the white outline, and just go with straight up gold numbers on a black jersey.

Also, is anyone else disturbed that there appear to be different shades of gold on the helmet, the numbers, and the pants? They're in danger of having multishade syndrome on the level of the early 90s Giants or Cowboys:

*drops a hint*

The Saints haven't matched in a looong time.

[Croatia National Team Manager Slavan] Bilic then went on to explain how Croatia's success can partially be put down to his progressive man-management techniques. "Sometimes I lie in the bed with my players. I go to the room of Vedran Corluka and Luka Modric when I see they have a problem and I lie in bed with them and we talk for 10 minutes." Maybe Capello could try getting through to his players this way too? Although how far he'd get with Joe Cole jumping up and down on the mattress and Rooney demanding to be read his favourite page from The Very Hungry Caterpillar is open to question. --The Guardian's Fiver, 08 September 2008

It's supposed to match the other numbers (wider vertical strokes, narrower horizontal strokes). It would look fine if they used the other basic #2 shape (like the Cowboys for instance) !

maybe he got together with the guys that make his jerseys and they decided to make a :censored:ty looking 2 so that it will look bad all year(if he plays) and eventually the NFL will let him drop the 2 and just wear 5.

Is he still holding out?

Still? The deadline for reporting was 6PM Thursday, so yes, for all of 10 hours or so as I write this, he's "still" holding out. ^_^

10 hours holding out is 10 hours he could be practicing.
