I really like them. That being said, the way Nike is promoting these- they should give a portion of the proceeds to Honor Flight or something of that nature.

I think the proceeds go to the Phil Knight Training Complex, Eugene, Oregon.

If I didn't like the Pacific Northwest so much, if the ducks hadn't been dog shit for so many years, if it weren't for the fact that Oregon is the only PAC 10 team capable of keeping USC down for a few years, I'd be lobbying the OSU Athletic Department to sever ties with Nike before that sumbitch totally ruins the Buckeye's uniform and The Game.

Correct me if I'm wrong but you just implied that it's OK for Nike to destroy the Buckeye's uniform & the tradition of The Game because you like a region of the country 3K miles to the west and because you see it as a way to keep USC in their place?

I like the Northwest. Served a tour at Ft. Lewis in 1968 and at a time when soldiers were being treated like shit, the folks in Olympia and Puyallup were kind and generous. I'd much rather deal with a successful U of Oregon than a successful USC mostly because they've been a doormat for so long. As a result of these feelings I'm not actively flooding Gene Smith's e-mail box with complaints about this "throw back" marketing bull shit. Doesn't mean I approve.

i was going to purchase one of the jerseys today at the team shop, but decided not to....the numbers are kinda small and it just looks weird.

i did however buy the 1942 tshirt. it has a real neat design for the shadows that kinda looks like the baselayer shirt (buckeye camo)



----edit. also, the jerseys on ebay are fake, i asked the people at the store if there will be authentic ones being sold and they said no....

What's the deal with the locker releases? How much do they run for and how early do I have to get to Niketown to get one?

Well last year the only releases were in NY and they sold out fast. Only was a Black Friday release and came with 1 helmet, 1 authentic jersey, 1 pair of cleats, 1 pair of original shoes and the locker.

I guess Nike also did an Ebay auction for charities towards each school. Ohio States went to the Stefanie Spielman fund.

I went to the Official Team Shop today as well.. I didn't try one on, but I really liked the red and black lining with the white numbers. I will probably pick one up next week, even though I bought one last year as well (my only non-red jersey).

I agree that the eBay ones are definitely fakes.. I presumed they were, now I know for sure.
