what course of action do you take or whose jersey do you go get now ? I may end up in this situation with my Shockey.  I always wear the jersey of a current Giant so I'm out $80 if he gets traded unfortunately. I think Tuck is a beast and will be a Giant for years to come in the Strahan mold, that would be my new pick.

strahan might retire if you dont mind wearing a retired guys jersey ( nothing wrong with it ) then go 4 it hes this gens LT for us ... any way if you want a current giant I wouldnt risk it on him Id go with tuck jacobs or burress but nothin wrong with osi
look for a bradshaw jersey too hes gonna be a stand out player for years to come barring injury and jacobs actualy should have a short carreer ( sadly)

imripped,
Had this happen to me this past season with my Tiki Jersey. I burned it. I now have nameless shirts and sweats until I decide for this season. It'll probably be Tuck though.
But your point is about trades. If you still like Shockey, as I do, keep the jersey. If he goes out in a ball of flames and tries to take the Giants with him, wear the jersey to your next bonfire and leave without it.

I could deal with a retirement as if I had a strahan jersey, that i'd probably keep wearing for a few years. I doubt any packer fans will ever quit wearing their favre jerseys, but a guy being cut or traded is another issue to me. If shockey goes to the Saints, I need a GIANT's jersey. A buddy from the bar that I watched games with last year came to the Packer game with a brand new red Bradshaw jersey. My dad has always gotten my hand me down jerseys before but he sprung for an Eli jersey along with some super bowl memorabilia we ordered so he's all set now. Best case scenario Shockey is not disruptive, comes out and has a career year, and stays with the team for years to come.

If you have to get a jersey I would go with Tuck. Barring a major injury he will be here for a long long time

Me personally, I only buy a jersey from a proven veteran, mostly one who is going to be a Giant and retire a Giant. I have bought a Barber, Toomer, and went retro with my favorite Simms jersey. My next jersey that I will get eventually will be Manning, he will retire a Giant as well as a Strahan.
I really want to get the LT retro jersey which runs over $200.00 though a little pricey for a beer drinking shirt. I always kinda laugh when I see people wearing a jersey from a player no longer with that team that has been traded and playing for someone else, thats a no-no.

Yeah I gave my Tiki jersey to Goodwill, but I still have a Jessie Armstead jersey that occasionally gets worn. Yes he played the last two years of his career with the Skins put in my mind he will always remain a Giant. If this is a real problem for you I would recommend getting a personalized jersey with your name on it. Chances are you will never retire or change teams. :)
In my closet right now:
Personalized #23 home jersey with Skippy on the back
Home #98 Jessie Armstead jersey
Away #72 Osi Umenyiora jersey
Throwback Home 1962 #70 Sam Huff jersey (long sleeves)

Nice collection, disasterskip, I have a Armstead jersey I still wear around too, it was my first Giants jersey and will always be my favorite. But at this point I have a ton, more just because I'm a jersey nut. I have 2 Elis(home and away), 2 Shockey (home and a pro bowl jersey), an away Tiki(I'll keep it anyway), a home Strahan, a home Osi, and a home Burress jersey, so I'll just keep adding to it.

I have an LT throwback.. the old blue #56. If I had to get a current player I'd probably go with Tuck. Purchasing a jersey is a risky prop, good topic. I always try and look at their deal and of course how much I like them. I actually have a replica Strahan from the last away jersey I forgot about..

For the benefit of the team, I have not gotten a jersey in 10 years, each time I do, the player either gets hurt and is never the same, or just looses it and is cut within a year
