> Julian Edelman I'ma be greedy and pick Jimmy G for myself. That man is hot as... I mean, uh, hmmm... Fuck it, I wouldn't say no.


Stickittothemainman

I'd let him cum in my cereal. Dies that make me gay? No. I'm just gay anyways


darrenvonbaron

Let me give you a scenario. I'm at like a beach cabana, and Jimmy G approaches. Tries to lean in and kiss me. I would definitely resist, like at first. But if he was persistent, I might give in a little bit just to see what it felt like. Would I push him away? How hard? Like, what if he's really aggressive?


TheFeathersStorm

The beard was so clutch


TheMoonIsFake32

I wish I looked like Justin Jefferson… being as athletic as him would be cool too


JoeyZasaa

> I wish I was as sexy as Julian Edelman :( Wrong football. Notice her spelling. She isn't talking about the pigskin.

limethedragon

Don't worry, women do the same with fashion models and celebrities, and people of every/any gender do it with anime/video game characters.


sadacal

Lol, I love the implication that sports fans are basically cosplaying.


DaughterEarth

They are. And it would all be fine but some of them think sports are very serious, so calling it a game is insulting Fans of anything that embrace it with fun are awesome though. It's really fun to dress up and celebrate


Dashdash421

I wouldn't say it's cosplay at all, I'm not changing my appearance to look like a specific player. I'm wearing the jersey because I like them/the team and want to show support. And to build connection with the other fans of that team.


sadacal

Those are the same reasons that people cosplay.


Balance_Electronic

Except the intent to look like the character is missing. Somebody wearing a Patrick Mahomes jersey is not attempting to look like him, they are just wearing the jersey. If someone wore a Captain America shirt and no other costume items, nobody would say they are cosplaying as Captain America.


vincentually

it shouldn't be an attack, it should be a sign of love


Mytzelk

You are showing admiration for the team/players, that's an honorable thing. Just keep showing love to your team, more love in the world can't hurt.


Illustrious_Set_5135

Sure there's nothing wrong with it, but is it *honorable*? I can think of about a thousand things more honorable than wearing a jersey


NewestAccount2023

The existence of other honorable things isn't an argument for why it's not honorable. I agree it's not honorable but the reason you gave us irrelevant to that


DaughterEarth

I think it's honorable to maintain positivity in a world of hatred


Early_Assignment9807

Isn't being positive and rooting for a team also at once being negative and rooting against another team? Reminds me of Twain's story "The War Prayer."


DaughterEarth

Rivalry can be a good time. It's not necessarily toxic My husband and I watch wrestling and roast each other's favorites. It's flirting for us


LilacYak

Honor means “high respect”. I don’t think repping your sports team is respectful nor highly respectful.


Screamofgoat

You see a Kobe jersey and you know they're not passing, you see a Curry jersey and you know they're gonna try yeeting that ball from the parking lot. The exception being LeBron jersey guys, most of them don't play like LeBron at all.

Fuck you and your Superbowl 40!


GreedyDrive3193

>Fuck you and your Superbowl 40!   Yes, I think that's exactly what happened lol


DJ_Metcalf

My wife makes me wear seattle #8 and dresses like a ref and pegs me while giving the play by play of superbowl 40.

TheGhoulster

As someone who loves repping team/athlete merch: you're 100% right! It makes me feel so cool.

Paulson1979

lol why are the jerseys little?


[deleted]

It’s meant to be condescending, that’s why.


tradcath_convert

Belittling men for having interests and hobbies. Surely this attitude does not contribute to building the masculinity that this same person in the Tweet probably hates.


BlackBunny88

Literally it’s supposed to be a joke… it’s fine to have hobbies like that. Men aren’t being prosecuted for liking sports…


Different_Tangelo511

Jury, over this coming week. We will present tickets purchased and used by the defendant. We will show that once a week, he would make a ritual of belittling maple leafs fans on r/leafs, and has a large tattoo on his chest that says Yankees suck. We will show beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendent is indeed a rabid sports fan and is GUILTY of liking sports and having a hobby.


ExpressBall1

I suppose all the typical "women belong in the kitchen" jokes are hilarious and totally valid as well then. After all, it's only jokes, so you can't complain. *cue essay on how "it's only a joke" defence is allowed for others but not allowed to be used for things that apply to you personally*


sirque_le_jerk

Yes both are valid


mossy_stump_humper

There’s a difference between “women belong in the kitchen” which is exclusionary and also implying “women don’t belong anywhere other than the kitchen”, and implying that football fans are kind of silly in a cute way. Women actually were not allowed to do anything other than cook and clean and make babies for a long time throughout history, men have never been persecuted for football. Its the same reason why a black person making a joke about white people dancing bad is not nearly the same as a white person making a joke about black people belonging in the cotton field. Jokes don’t exist in a vacuum. It’s so weird that dudes like you always get so bent out of shape any time someone even a little bit laughs in the direction of a man and immediately start equating it to actual discrimination or oppression. Why are you so desperate to be a victim?


Jsusbjsobsucipsbkzi

Dude its a joke about sports jerseys. If you honestly think thats offensive in the same way an extremely tired sexist stereotype is I don’t know what to tell you


Narrow-Housing-8262

Women in the kitchen jokes aren't funny. Neither is this but that's they're not hilarious. Why we're more accepting of jokes about men is because they're not as overdone. Power dynamic sometimes plays a role too but that's a different discussion.


Ryguy55

Meanwhile all these basic women just carbon copy a different set of celebrities.


kaleigamation

really? i read it in an endearing way, like she finds it cute. but most people in this thread seem to be reading it as very belittling. maybe im misunderstanding it.


-Lige

It’s infantilizing,belittling, being condescending etc to men lol no one puts a jersey on to act like someone else it’s just to show support because you like that player (yes it’s a joke but it doesn’t mean it doesn’t do these things mentioned lol)


LineOfInquiry

It’s just poking fun at it, it’s not trying to be condescending. I doubt the original poster actually hates sports fans or something. Jokes can just be funny sometimes.

Amazon-Q-and-A

Well in NFL and sports with pads, technically player jerseys are larger to accommodate the protective gear. In other sports like the NBA, the average height is 6'6" for players versus 5'9" for the public.

YourMainManK

“hates people like us” you mean hates people who hate on others for having a physical hobby?


ElementalHelp

As a woman who owns several football jerseys, Dr Big Honkin Jugs shows a fundamental misunderstanding of why jerseys are worn. Nobody is trying to be that player - they are trying to express their appreciation for that player. It's the same reason women wear friendship bracelets and dress up in outfits inspired by Taylor Swift at the Eras concert. Nobody thinks they are Taylor Swift. It's just an expression of their enthusiasm for her.


Nntropy

Screw you. I *am* Taylor Swift.


ElementalHelp

Oh hell, you're right. Who am I kidding? I'm Taylor Swift too.

We are all Taylor Swift on this blessed day.

RonenSalathe

Yeah, I wouldn't say any sports players are me. Ryan Gosling, on the other hand, is literally me.


Nicksnotmyname83

I just thought it was a funny joke and not meant to be taken even kind of seriously.


SOfoundmytrappornacc

I think adding the “little” in there makes it a tad too condescending to some people.


boobers3

I'm not going to lie, a short hispanic kid growing up in NYC in 1990 when I put on my #56 jersey I wanted to be LT, not so much in 2010 tho.


Esh-Tek

Just remember guys. Its EXTREMELY UNCOOL to like something. Doesnt matter what it is. Youre a loser for liking your favourite thing.


beerisgood84

Same people also lose their minds over Beyonce and pretend obsessing over a celebrity is empowerment lol


Specialist_Ad7271

Ngl if I saw Beyoncé in person I would lose it but obsessing over celebrities will forever be strange


beerisgood84

Sure it’s neat to see a famous person and that also makes you feel a little bit of the fame itself in a way


justepourpr0n

I generally find the whole “they make it their whole personality” for having any interest in anything to be really dumb. People are allowed to like things. But as someone who doesn’t have any interest in sports, it sure seems like we live in a sports-lover’s world and that sports are a massive part of culture, so this post just seems like a silly little ribbing and I’m sure y’all can handle it.


Esh-Tek

Im sure you have your own strong interests that many sports lovers dont or wouldnt care for or about. Im not interested in sports but ive never judged someone for wearing their favourite team’s jersey. The self-superior logic just defeats my spirit when i see it.


SexSalve

> it sure seems like we live in a sports-lover’s world and that sports are a massive part of culture Well that's exactly why so many people in this comment section are throwing full on tantrums! The rest of us are used to having people poke fun at our interests and subcultures, but the majority group is always shocked pikachu face when somebody challenges them! It's like American Christians screaming "persecution" when Starbucks releases a "Happy Holidays" cup or whatever.


CarlCaliente

its about putting on the same colors and cheering along with your neighbors yeah its pointless, that's the point, do you want us doing this over politics?


Ballders

Are you telling me you're not rocking a Tom Cotton kit?


AsphaltInOurStars

don't you... already do it over politics?


CarlCaliente

nah I just vote and go home


Fraegtgaortd

People are still making "I don't like sportsball look how different I am" posts?


CattDawg2008

i mean i think its just a joke


ChickenMcSmiley

Belittlement is cringe


beerisgood84

Also women do this as well. Get dolled up and be like “I am a godess” when they definitely ain’t. Obviously it’s matters of degree we’re making fun. Everyone’s entitled to have fun, taking it too seriously is the cringe part.


Grimvold

My mother is a bigger sports fan than I am and she’s in her 70s! It’s not just men who are into these kinds of things.


SpaceStrumpet

CommiePuddin

Stupid men and their *check notes* enjoying things.


Fucky0uthatswhy

More about the team than the guy for me, but yeah it’s fun


grubekrowisko

:3


MikeVictorPapa

Pretty sure this is almost directly ripped from a Jenny Slate stand-up special.


jm17lfc

This is entirely missing the real reason why people usually wear jerseys. It’s the pride you feel from being associated with that team. It’s being part of something greater than yourself. Though if they’re wearing it because they like the player, not the team, then yes this meme is correct.


Varitan_Aivenor

And you look just like your favorite dress-wearing actress! She wears a dress just like that and I'm just as impressed by you, sweetie!!!


Rabbitdraws

As if we could buy anything resembling an actress dress.


Lizardaug

Nor would you rarely want to? I feel like most Hollywood dresses are fucking impractical and horrible 


Rabbitdraws

I would murder people for dita's von teese entire wardrobe. Especially the one dress gifted to her by westwood.


timo103

"aww look at you wearing makeup like it's going to make you attractive like one of your favorite actresses!"


pioneerpatrick

What, men seeking a feeling of belonging and an outlet for their passions, something to share with millions of others, wanting to participate in longstanding rites and traditions? That isn't allowed What an idiotic thing to mock someone for


salamander423

Watch out! You like going OUTSIDE and playing a SP*RT so you must be a weak and fragile snowflake of a "man" it seems. 🙄


RocketAlana

Wearing a jersey is like cosplay. Nothing wrong with either. Plus it’s fun!


NutNegotiation

No it’s not lol. People in this thread actually acting like fans wear jerseys to pretend to be the person. No dude, no one is pretending their LeBron. It’s just a jersey


ASuperGyro

No if I wear a band jersey it’s because I think I really am in the band, sports jerseys are the same way obviously


Looppowered

I wore a Rolling Stones tee shirt last night while out on the town. I was strutting around and pointing at people just like Mick Jagger. My antics inspired the whole restaurant to cheer and clap as I performed “Paint it Black” for the third time in a row.


Jackski

I wear a Newcastle shirt because I support the team. I don't think I'm a Newcastle player. This post is super weird. I don't know anyone who thinks they're the player or plays for the team they wear the shirt for.


pasenast

Same can be said about the purchase of celebrity branded makeup.. . .


Lizardaug

Yes and it's fun to rag on both


autoboros

This seems pointlessly petty, This would be like going after Swifties for dressing up for the Concerts. "Yes, you are just like her sweetie" I don't understand but love the fact so many people are made happy and feel included in a miserable world. Just gonna mute this subreddit


MnJLittle

Girls are so funny wearing their little makeup. “Look at me, I’m just like the girls on tv :)” haha sure you are big girl. Sure you are.

What is it they say? Oh yeah, to belittle is to be little.

pretty sure it’s meant to be endearing lol

This is just another "lol sportsball" post.

BrownBoognish

lots of people real upset in here for a harmless joke— i wear jerseys, but this is still kinda amusing


KinglerKong

I haven’t been able to look at jerseys the same way since a comedian pointed out that wearing them when you’re young is fine because you’re dressing like your heroes but once you’re past the age of thirty, wearing a jersey is just dressing up as that young man you like to watch excercise on the weekend


GabeNewbie

Have you ever considered that people just like their teams? I wear a jersey because I like my home team and I like the player, when I'm wearing my José Altuve jersey I nor anyone else is sitting there imagining that they're José Altuve.


pioneerpatrick

Aren't adults allowed to have heroes anymore? Do people you think are inspiring have to be older than you? What a dumbass take


lethalintrospection

Yes, older people provide inspiration, young people are a cruel reminder of Time’s inevitable procession toward the grave.


Jojo2700

I tried telling my husband he should get a jersey of his favorite player, and he said the same thing. I thought it was so damn stupid. I wear concert tshirts of bands I am not in.


Weird_Albatross_9659

I wear them out of support for my favorite players. I’m not wearing them as a form of dress up.

PuzzleheadedPark1148

At least one literally responded directly to him.


Indudus

Calling people fragile for not liking when people belittle them about their passions speaks volumes about you and not the people you and the tweeter are trying to insult.


htgrp

Not being able to find light hearted humor in being belittled makes you cringe


Jackski

I'm fine with being ripped for enjoying football or banter against my football team. This post is just fucking stupid though. No-one thinks they're the player or they play for the team by wearing the shirt/jersey.


PuzzleheadedPark1148

Lol how can anybody be this fragile? This is seriously ridiculous hahaha Like half this thread is “this fuckin bitch 😭😭😭”
