Who is buying AFCE Champs gear?

[Tunescribe]

I like rare items of value...so,no, I wouldn't buy a Patriots AFC East Champions shirt...they are so run of the mill...I want the rarest of all rarities...and AFC East Champion JET shirt...now THAT....THAT would have to be worth millions...maybe BILLIONS!!!

I've been contemplating a trip to rural Guatemala in hopes of finding a New Jersey 2010 AFC Champions T-shirt. That should draw a tidy sum on eBay. The only problem would be trying to explain to the locals why I'd want it and why it's so -- um -- "unique."

If I had disposable income I'd send one to Rex Ryan and every member of the Jets organization, as well as every sports writer * cough mike florio * who predicted this to be the year the Patriots were dethroned as AFC East Champs.

I want a tee, but they are awful to get hold of for us overseas Pats!

Lombardi or busy, baby.

It's my fourth SB title cap or zilch (OK, I'd also get one with all four on it and throw out my three title cap); I proudly wear Pats day by day gear here in the Apple, but the only titles I brag about are the ones that require winning the last game of the season.

We all know it would be 9 straight division titles if it weren't for Bernard Pollard.

The Dolphins division title in 2008 should have a huge asterisk after it with (season without Brady) in small print below it.

I still wonder how the 2008 playoffs would of went if the Pats got in. That team was really coming together at the end of the season.

Back on topic, I've never been a fan of the AFC East champs stuff. I remember Seymour saying something to the effect of "this shirt is nice, but there's a few more I want to get"

You can always tell the younger spoiled kids in here from us older guys who would have given all their money in the bank to have been able to buy division title merchandise in the early 90s.

I bought a 1985 conf champions sweatshirt and wore it proudly until it literally fell apart.

But I won't be buying the AFCE stuff this year until it is under $5 on clearance.

Super Bowl gear or nothing at all. We are WELL past the "just happy to be there" days.

This is no longer 1996 where you can feel good about an AFC Championship.

These days, if the Pats win the division and AFC but lose in the Super Bowl, well, the hat/t-shirt will be a hurtful reminder of what "could have been". We are a team now that expects to win, anything less is no cause for celebration (especially given the pricing).
