Worst NBA Jerseys of the Past Decade

These are the seven worst NBA jerseys of the past decade or maybe ever. Let me know if I left any off, but this is my biased list of the worst NBA jerseys ever.

1. Washington Wizards. Current alternate. They look like a WNBA team, nothing else to it.

2. Vancouver Grizzlies. The thigh logo is just not a good idea and neither is using the sixth overall pick on Bryant Reeves.


3. Atlanta Hawks puke green alternate jersey. You gotta be kidding with these things



4. New Orleans Hornets. These are the Hornets yet they use the Saints logo, maybe they decided that naming an NBA franchise after an insect was just stupid.



5. Dallas Mavericks, green retro alternate. Letting P. Diddy design your uniforms is a bad idea, but wearing them a much worse idea. This is not John McCain's kind of Maverick.

6. Detroit Pistons. Teal usually being a bad idea is kind of a developing theme here. And I still have not figured out what the logo represents. I think I see a couple pistons, but that is also a horse.


7. Chicago Bulls black and red pinstripe. Red pinstripes were a bad idea. No wonder Champion isn't making uniforms any more.

Craig Sager's Worst Suits

I am glad Jonathan Papelbon ruined your pumpkin costume.













Eva Longoria does not think that the purple is a good idea.


















That color has only been seen before on isects.















Puke Green is frequently considered fashionable.


















Legit Pimp Suit.



















This would be a great suit for Mark Price if he wanted to do a Keyshawn impression.

Bad (Good) Sports Jerseys of the 90's Washington, D.C. Edtition

This is the fourth in our series of a whole lot. In no particular order, this is what I would consider the best (funniest) jerseys to own or see somebody wearing from the D.C. teams of the 90's. Be sure to check the other cities in the series so far, Baltimore, Montreal and Cleveland. Also be sure to check out our store featuring bad jerseys from D.C. teams and other shirts like the one to the left. Please leave comments below if there are any you think I forgot.


1. Heath Shuler
. Incredible draft bust. Now a congressman from North Carolina.

2. Boubacar Aw. His name is pretty much the main reason here. Apparently he drops fifteen points a night playing professional basketball in Mexico. I was unaware they had professional basketball in Mexico.

3. Manute Bol. He was short.

4. Mugsy Bogues. He was tall.


5. Gus Frerotte. No one will ever forget that touchdown celebration.

6. Gheorge Muresan. The Bullets had a thing for tall guys who were really bad at basketball. He was also a movie star.

7. Victor Page. Declared for the NBA draft after his sophomore year at Georgetown. That was a terrible idea, he just was not that good at basketball. It also didn't help that he missed the NBA pre draft camp because he was too drunk the night before.

8. Deion Sanders. One of the better free agent signings Dan Snyder ever made. too bad turf toe real kept Deion from ever making a play.

9. Pervis Ellison. "Never Nervous Pervis" also later became known as "Out of Service Pervis" never really lived up to that number one draft pick status.

10. Danny Wuerffeul. Part of that bring every former Gator to D.C. to play under Spurrier project that worked out so well for the Skins.

Bad Jerseys of the 90's Cleveland Edition

This is the third in our series of a whole lot. Cleveland really had a ton of really bad players in the 90's which made this very hard. In no particular order, this is what I would consider the best (funniest) jerseys to own or see somebody wearing from the Cleveland teams of the 90's. Be sure to check the other cities in the series so far Baltimore and Montreal. Also be sure to check out our store featuring bad jersyes from Cleveland teams and other shirts like the one to the left. Please leave comments below if there are any you think I forgot.

1. Tim Couch. The number one pick was suppose to be the answer so much so that he was featured on the Drew Carey show as a rookie, but was a huge bust.


2. Alex Cole. He is a shoe in for the all rec specs teams and may also make the all jheri curl team. And certainly a lock for the all heroin team.


3. Craig Ehlo. Better known as that guy from that Jordan highlight that no one has ever seen.



4. Vitaly Potapenko. The "Ukraine Train" never really lived up to his potential for the Cavs. The 12th overall selection in 1996, the five picks after him in the draft were Kobe, Peja Stojakovic, Steve Nash, Tony Delk, and Jermaine O'Neal. But at least later in that first round they landed Big Z.


5. Wil Cordero. Wife Beater Cordero was only with the Tribe for one season in the 90's, but this was after his arrest for domestic violence that made him miss Saturday day games for counseling, and occasional games to go to Puerto Rico for custody hearings. Also put new meaning to the term professional hitter by having a little league arm.


6. Paul Assenmacher. Up here solely because I believe if you say his name enough times fast it will come out as "Ass Smacker."


7. Rashaan Salaam. Real draft bust, but at least he ended his career as the fourth most prolific rusher in XFL history.

8. Benoit Benjamin. Apparently he is an idiot. Something I find funny. I also really respect the double zero.




9. Trajan Langdon. The Alaskan Assassin was drafted by the Cavs in 1999 and has rarely been seen in America since, but was named the EuroLeague Finals MVP last year.


10. Candy Maldonado. I will pay to get him off of Baseball Tonight.

11. Karim Abdul-Jabbar. The original Chad Ocho-Cinco. Got much more attention for his name than for his play. The real Kareem Abdul-Jabbar sued him and won and then he changed his name to Abdul-Karim al-Jabbar.


Honorable Mention: Craig Ehlo, Bernie Kosar, Vinny Testaverde, Koy Detmer, Hot Rod Williams, Carlos Baerga, Paul Sorrento, Junior Ortiz, Felix Fermin, Alvaro Espinoza, Billy Ripken, Heathcliff Slocumb, Albert Belle.

Jersey Mugshots

I just found a link to a photo gallery on the Smoking Gun of mugshots of people wearing their favorite teams jersey. Check it out here. At least two of the athlete's whose jerseys appear have mugshots of their own, Javon Kearse and Kobe.
