    Definite bad mojo. There is no way I could wear that t shirt being a Giants fan. And the fact is you re playing the sea hawks in the super bowl! Don't do it.

    Guys, a t-shirt is not going to affect if your team wins or loses the super bowl.

    You don't understand the mojo then…

    I bought one last year and I'm a Broncos fan… Nuff said.

    Absolutely it is VERY wrong to buy this. I love PJ and I dont mind the seahawks, but I am a diehard pats fan and would NEVER buy or wear a 12th man jersey. No brainer!! Go Pats!

    Nah. Just a reasonable man who isn't going to invest his life in sports.

    I can't believe anyone would even consider wearing this for a millisecond unless they were a Seahawks fan. I'm mean, come on!! [-(

    Huge Seahawks fan here. Season ticket holder for 15 years, went to the Super Bowl last year, 2 Seahawks related tattoos. I know, cool story…That said why the hell would you want this if you are a Pats fan?! If the roles were reversed and it were a Pats related shirt I wouldn't be caught dead…

    I don't know anything about MOJO...I'm a Colts fan ~X(
    To me this is a Pearl Jam shirt and I'm okay with the colors and design!!
    I love the Space Needle graphic and bought the green/yellow version too.
    The 12th man flag doesn't makes this shirt unwearable for me!!

    Why not? As I said in a similar thread, Brady wears #12!

    Tom Brady has nothing to do with it. That is a 12th man flag on top of the space needle. Clearly a symbol of the Seahawks, not Tom Brady. If you wear this shirt you are saying "I'm a Seahawks fan and a Pearl Jam fan." If you're not both of those things I don't know why you'd wear it

    I guess I just don't get it. Are we that desperate to own anything that says Pearl Jam on it that we would wear the opposing team's colors? I mean I am a huge fan of both and I ordered one but to me it only makes sense if you're a fan of both.

    I think it's great the band is supporting their hometown team. I think the design is awesome. I know there is not a chance in hell I would ever buy one of these.

    Go Pats!

    As a Pearl Jam fan, I love the shirt & design.

    As a Pats fan, no.... I wouldn't be caught dead wearing one.

    Just my opinion, do what you like.

    I know Green Bay radio tried banning all 'Seattle Music' last week and it didn't really work out for them. However, the only PJ I'll allow myself to listen to over the next 2 weeks is Boston, Mansfield or Worcester bootlegs.
