Today I am the proud owner of an official no. 81 Calvin Johnson Detroit Lions Honolulu Blue jersey as well as a no. 81 Navy Blue Dallas Cowboys Terrell Owens jersey.
The only other sports jersey's I have ever owned has been a San Jose Sharks and Montreal Canadians sweaters.
I plan however to turn this into a new hobby and was curious if there were any other collectors/proud owners of any cool or rare jerseys out there on this board.
My next pick up is a Devils jersey and LA Raiders Bo Jackson if I can find one.

Whenever I go abroad I get the home country's football shirt. My favourite was my Czech Republic shirt with Baros on the back.

I have a Vladimir Guerrero jersey for this year... all red... I also have a Guerrero Special Sunday Home jersey with the red sleeves... I also have a Tim Salmon ROY Angels jersey. And my girl has the LA Dodgers jerseys, one for each year of the last 5. Gagne, Green, and three more that I cannot remember. And our daughter has one of each kind for the Angels and the Dodgers. (meaning, one of each type; home, away, sunday special home; practice; pink)
Oh, I also bought my girl a Dodgers one with rhinestones on it... it's a Nomar jersey.
Besides those, I have a 1990 Barry Sanders Detroit jersey, and and Warrick Dunn TB jersey. (i liked the colors of the jerseys, heh, don't particulary like the players OR the teams tho). I really want a Brooklyn Dodgers jersey, and a lot of throw backs; but if I started buying those, my other hobbies would have to take a hit.

Collecting jerseys is typically a losing proposition because of how often players move from team to team and the fact that the jersey's just aren't worth anything if they're current. If it's just a hobby and you want to just have them, then by all means, but I wouldn't expect buying current players' jerseys is going to net you much of anything in the forseeable future.
I almost started collecting NFL Authentic Game Worn jerseys with autographs, but the $$$ are too big for me and I kind of don't know what to do with them once I get them. I got an authentic signed LT jersey in a case hanging in a room, but outside of that I never really could bring myself to start a serious collection (though I've been really close a ton of times).

I like the idea of framing them and putting them on display in a sports room in my next home or sometime in the far future. Kind of like how sports bars do it.
Like my TO jersey...when he leaves Dallas I'll probably frame that. I picked up an old school Warren Moon baby blue no.1 Oilers jersey online and that guy is going right to frame I think.

When I was in 3rd-5th grade, I wore an NBA jersey almost everyday. I had A LOT! The ones I remember having were:
Dennis Rodman - Spurs and Bulls Michael Jordan - Bulls Scottie Pippen - Bulls Hakeem Olajuwon - Rockets Mark Price - Cavaliers Steve Smith - Hawks Reggie Miller - Pacers David Robinson - Spurs Jason Kidd - Mavericks Shawn Bradley - Mavericks (worst purchase ever!) Shaquille O'Neal - Magic and Lakers Kobe Bryant - Lakers Kevin Johnson - Suns Damon Stoudamire - Raptors Clyde Drexler - Rockets Charles Barkley - Rockets Kevin Garnett - Timberwolves Larry Johnson - Hornets Alonzo Mourning - Heat Jim Jackson - Mavericks Grant Hill - Pistons (home and away colors) Latrell Sprewell - Warriors and Knicks Mitch Richmond - Kings Shawn Kemp - Sonics Chris Webber - Bullets and Wizards Ghorge Muresan - Bullets
I swear I had some more, but those are the ones I remember for sure. I eventually outgrew them all, which sucked, but what can you do.
As for my current jersesys:
Barry Bonds - Giants Alfonso Soriano - Rangers Peyton Manning - Colts Terrell Owens - Cowboys Drew Bledsoe - Cowboys Jake Delhomme - Panthers Mushin Muhammed - Panthers Steven Davis - Panthers Issac Bruce - Rams Eddie George - Titans Yao Ming - West All Star jersey Dirk Nowitzki - Mavericks Tracy McGrady - Magic Michael Jordan - Wizards and UNC Sean May - Bobcats Antwan Jamison - Mavericks Allen Iverson - 76ers Peter Warrick - Bengals Carmelo Anthony - Nuggets (white) and light blue throwback LeBron James - Cavaliers Jeremy Shockey - Giants Wade Boggs - Red Sox throwback Devin Harris - Mavericks football style jersey
I have several t-shirt jerseys as well. From baseball I have: Derek Lee (Cubs), David Ortiz (Red Sox), Kenny Rogers (Rangers), Michael Young (Rangers), Frankie Francisco (Rangers). From basketball: Josh Howard (Mavs), Marquis Daniels (Mavs), DeSagana Diop (Mavs), and Mark Cuban (Mavs, it has a $ for the number and says "He Fine Me" on the back).

I've always had the bad luck of buying a sports jersey and then having the player leave the team. It happend with me to Drew Bledsoe, Nomar Garcipara, Antoine Walker and Curtis Martin. I've stopped buying them in fear that something will happen to Tom Brady.

I have several myself:
(3) Cincinnati Reds - just got the new spring training one a while back. It's a sharp looking jersey.
(1) Brooklyn Dodgers - Cooperstown Collection
(1) Atlanta Braves - Regular white button-up w/ red Braves lettering.
(3) Yankees - Regular blue button-up & V neck pull over as well & a Jeter one.
(2)Michigan - Regular button-up & V neck Nike
(1) North Carolina - Regular button-up
(1) Cleveland Indians - Regular button-up
(1) Florida Gators - V neck Nike
(1) Texans - V neck Reebok
I did have a Mariners one a few years ago but it got ripped and I had a #10 Blue Atlanta Braves one, but gave it to a relative a while back. I've been wearing these since the late 90's it seems like.

Two New Jersey Devils jerseys
One each of the following:
Buffalo Sabres Colorado Avalanche Phoenix Coyotes (original logo) USA Olympic Hockey from 1998 Philadelphia Wings lacrosse jersey
The "rarest" one I have is a Detroit Vipers IHL jersey, bought during their last season before they ceased operations (but I didn't know that at the time).
