Would You Sit on This Guy’s Lap?

I don’t care if he wears a uniform — Santa still gives me the creeps. Always has. Spends half his time groping children, the other half enslaving pointy-eared midgets, and another half sneaking down chimneys like some prowler. Yes, I know, that’s three halves, but like I was saying, this Santa dude’s into some freaky-deaky shit.

Anyway: I hope everyone’s Christmas is healthy and happy, and that you get some quality goods under the tree. Special shout-outs to Julie and Johnie, whose book on aluminum Christmas trees is the definitive word on the subject, and to the great Oscar Peterson, who died yesterday and whose music brightened many a holiday over the years for me and, I hope, you. R.I.P., brother.

    Gut Yontiff everyone. We’re off to see “The Great Debaters”, and the to Silver Seafood (across from the Green Mill) for amazing Whole Snapper with black bean and ginger, and Garlic Eggplant. Have a wonderful holiday, one and all.

    And Chag Sameach to you all.

    Movie today depends on what American Airlines is showing. Best day to fly the entire year. The planes are empty. You might think that the crews would be surly, but instead they go out of their way to be merry.

    Merry Christmas to all! Headed to my folks’ house and then to the in-laws. The kids’ heads are about to asplode.

    I appreciate your opinion, Paul but Santa is the coolest and he most definitely rocks. :0)

    Scariest Santa ever is in A Christmas Story, which I just watched for the umpteenth time with my kids. So funny!

    Sorry, but this is the link.

    Happy holidays to everyone!

    Merry Xmas everyone…

    Any good uni related gifts out there? I gave my kids Auburn jerseys, I got a Dolphins jersey, and cool retro NY Yankees road jersey t-shirt. On my way to Birmingham to see the family…maybe more uni surprises await?

    Have a safe and merry day.

    Uni-gifts…

    I got a UniWatch membership, and the sweet Tekulve Tee from “Watch Your Back” – Thanks Mark!

    My son got an Urlacher T-Shirt jersey.

    I gave both a Blue Alternate Cubs Jersey, and a Road Washington Nationals jersey.

    Merry uniwatch to all, and to all a striped night!

    Merry Christmas from South Carolina. My son got lots of Clemson stuff to wear to the Chick-fil-A Bowl, to offset the Auburn gear above.

    Merry Christmas everyone.

    I got a New York Yankees Authentic Therma Base Premier Jacket for Christmas.

    You’re way off–David Ortiz was born on November 18th.

    I got a Detroit Tigers Craig Monroe road jersey from my cousin. I suspect it was available at a deep discount, but I won’t complain.

    Merry Christmas!

    hard to find item? try finding a Randy Moss jersey anywhere in the Greater Boston area. Luckily Chanukah was early this year and I was able to get on before the Christmas rush.

    I landed a sweet Brownie the Elf tee shirt and the Penn Relays pennant from vintage pennants…

    Happy holidays…

    The wife surprised the hell out of me with a home Ovechkin Caps jersey, my first personalized hockey jersey. Basically I told her if can find something for $50 or less (in other words a steal from Ebay or an old jersey) uni-wise go for it, other wise forget it. Needless to say the jersey I got was a bit over that amount. That said you’ll have to forgive me if I’m a little more sympathetic to Bettman stripes for the time being.

    As for flying on Christmas, I had a fun trip from Albany to BWI last Christmas. People were generally nice going into the airport. The Southwest plane itself was at capcity, but besides that a lot fewer people in the airports.

    Merry Christmas to everyone :)

    A few days early, but I just got two great International hockey sweaters: white Norway and Switzerland. I’d been looking for the Norway jersey since the last winter olympics.

    You know when Satan wants to trick us, he spells his name ‘Santa’. Is there no folklore more ridiculous than Santa? Tho the Tooth Fairy and the Easter Bunny rank way up there.

    For my money, link is the scariest Santa ever!
    On a uni note I gave my best friend one of the new retro Blue Jays uniforms and he almost cried. He had an old school Jays t-shirt that he wore until the arm pits wore out so he loves that stuff. Alas I did not receive any uni related gifts, though I did buy myself a Tatupu Seahawks replica on sale. I’m also considering sponsoring a little league team on the stipulation that I get to pick the uni colours, tis the time of year for giving!
    Merry Christmas etc. to everyone!

    I did get a nice Cardinals pullover jacket and t-shirt from my generally sports-clueless sister. Otherwise, I did give my niece a Blues helmet hat. It made me happy to spoil her. :)

    Merry Christmas to all from the west coast of Florida. America’s other West Coast.

    BTW….What does the green dot on the back of the QBs helmets mean???

    And, are the Buccaneers going to be using a new font on their jerseys next year????

    (sorry, couldn’t resist…lol)

    I got link jersey for christmas

    “BTW….What does the green dot on the back of the QBs helmets mean???”

    do you live under a rock?

    anyways…merry christmas to all uni watch readers. have a great day.

    I got a boss burgundy Redskins #17 Jason Campbell authentic with the 75th anniversary patch (now where to find a 21 memorial patch?!?). Also a heady new pair of Birkenstock clogs, which is part of my personal uniform every day. Merry Christmas to all of you!

    The only uni-related gift I received was a Danny Brier replica Flyers jersey. Weird though, numbers & logo were screen printed while the RBK logos were sewn on. Either way, one of the best gifts I received.

    My girlfriend is terrified to buy me anything uni related due not totally ‘Getting It’ yet.

    I made it easy on her this year, though. The replica Bruins jerseys werent doing it for me and I only wanted a Randy Moss jersey if it were available in the Pat Patriot throwback (not yet!)

    I heard that Santa had signed a deal with Nike and would start wearing a System of Dress uni starting next year. With a big swoosh on the butt.

    Oscar Peterson had to go put a downer on my holiday. Can I make some lame joke about his famous Trio and the Three Wise Men? No? Oops.

    OTOH, the Red Sox made it easy for my wife and I to shop for her brother, and his oldest son, Worcester expatriates in Austin.

    Watching Fox News just now, and they ran a segment on how Giants fans are selling their tickets in droves for the Giants-Pats game. They showed a clip of the Pats in practice..and I noticed the small Adidas logo on the yoke of the practice jersey. Figured it must be old footage- and confirmed it when they showed #11 (Bledsoe) and #7 (Flutie) taking practice snaps. What, they couldn’t get current footage from the Sports division?

    Well isn’t that like Fixed Noise for you?

    A commentator who can’t kick Olbermann’s @$$ in the news department, and now this. Man, Jabba the Hut’s bringing this division faster than his other venture, Facist Business Network.

    I foresee a LOT of Patti Willis jersey sales in our area in the next few months.

    Seeing that it will be my first jersey purchase since I bought a Rod Woodson 49ers jersey(boy, what a great investment that was…), I will probably opt for an authentic. The only question is whether I go home red or road white. Or throwback, even though it seems odd seeing that he was never around for that era.

    in an attempt to stem the tide of ever-increasing out-of-wedlock NBA love-children, the league has begun an aggressive fan-interaction program to link at the games

    blazers/sonics game has both teams in darks, meaning it’s green vs red for christmas… coincidence?

    merry christmas everyone

    link

    Some interesting uniforms including a Navy/Gold vs a Black/Silver link Harrisburg (in Black/Silver) actually uses a modified version with more piping

    link

    link has a sweet bulldog logo

    They should allow combos like that Blazers/Sonics one a lot more often. Kevin Durant’s shoes on the other hand…not so much

    I don’t care if he wears a uniform – Santa still gives me the creeps. Always has.

    Ummmm… Give Santa credit, he’s got them smokin’ elves.

    It means the helmet has a radio.

    Merry Christmas, everybody.

    Merry Christmas to uniwatchers, got me a new black Knowshon Moreno jersey today, now all I have to do is get his name screenprinted to sidestep the NCAA’s banning of selling players’ names and all will be right with the universe.

    Got home black and road white Steelers jerseys, was wanting a 75th anny throwback, but couldn’t find XXL replicas….anyone know of anywhere to look? Tried NFL Shop, Steelers website, jersey joe, Eastbay, and ebay.

    Dick’s? That’d be Dick’s Sporting Goods, boys and girls, not a porn reference like “The Master Debaters”.

    That should have a strike thru on Merry Christmas…

    Merry Christmas Happy Politically Correct Holidays!

    Maybe that works..?

    I got a Saskatchewan Roughriders retro jersey which was pretty cool. I’m writing this on a new iPod Touch, though, which is even cooler.
