LAWings 160 Report post Posted September 28, 2013 Hey all, first post here long time lurker. I noticed in the exhibition games the names on the back of the jersies go straight across, but I always remember that they arc. Are these exhibition jersies or did they just make a change?

anthonyn66 89 Report post Posted September 28, 2013 The arc is a ***** to sew for the equipment managers so they tend to save those for the roster players, nameplates are easy so they use those in the pre-season Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dirtydangles 1,328 Report post Posted September 28, 2013 every year this question gets asked its cheaper to sew these names on the jersey than the fancy ones that take a lot of time to get right. Consider the sheer number of players we had up to start the preseason and the number of jerseys that would have to be made for them all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Those of us who participate will thank you once we're sober enough to type. In other words, you are far from alone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
