10. Brett Favre
If your least favorite quarterback got traded to your favorite team, what would you do? Well, if you’re like me, you vow to quit rooting for the team! So I did, and sadly, the alleged greatest quarterback ever did not make me pay for it. They collapsed like many a Jet team before them, and Brett Favre’s Jet jersey goes into the collection of “Jerseys that Should Never Have Happened” along with Joe Namath’s Rams jersey and Johnny Unitas’ Chargers jersey. I can’t say that I’m happy that I saw this coming. It was painful to watch, and I almost felt sorry for the old gunslinger. Of course, until the national media made excuses for him up until they no longer could. So this is how it ends, dissed and dismissed by the New York Post.
Mitigating circumstances: Everyone kind of forgot that he helped punch the Giants’ ticket to the Super Bowl with the kind of silly interception that truly great QB’s don’t make in the NFC title game. So without him, there’s no David Tyree. See Brett, some of New York still loves you!

Favre was a joke to watch…Like your point about the jersey’s especially the Johnny U reference.
