1) Husbands and wives don't always agree. Fact of life.
2) The reference to length is sooo far from reality, even for those with delusions of grandeur, that I see the jersey as innocuous, IMO. One (esp a female) might take offense at first site but, 29 inches??? Really!!?? I think that it's "too far out there" to be offensive.

Sharethedamnroad.com has several interesting jerseys. Maybe this one is more appealing to the easily offended.

Exactly. Someone would have to be really trying hard to find something to be offended by to take offense to this after a moment to think about it.

Aubrey Beardsley could have pulled it off.

Thanks. Works now. I think I'd feel like someone painted a target on my back wearing one of those jerseys.

My wife said no to these -- and I thought I was the only one with a "picky" wife.
