#8 and #7 – The WHA Jerseys.

The Jets home and away versions of the WHA inaugural season both come in at the back end.

Since the two are essentially the same, and both not enjoyable, I figured I’d include them on one slide. That’s not the best picture, but what can I say, Getty images can only do so much.

I have included a link here, though, where you can see the white. Doesn’t look so bad in the greyscale, huh?

The Bobby Hull jersey in that link sold for over $122k, which is insane. I get it, it’s a crazy piece of history. Well, there’s one reason this wasn’t last: The era.

We’re in the 70s here, what did I expect? And honestly, the white one isn’t the worst, which is why it’s at 7, and the blue at 8. Era be damned, that blue doesn’t belong anywhere.

I’m factoring in expectations here, which is both A) unfair, and B) I don’t care. It’s all unfair and subjective. Make your own list. @ me on Twitter. But only one of these jerseys came with expectations for me.

That’s how a jersey that is worse gets a better spot. It’s why I think Inception is the worst movie I’ve seen, once you factor in how good it was supposed to be. Same reason why Reign Of Fire is so good: Because it should be the worst movie ever, but it isn’t.

This should be a terrible jersey, but is it? Yeah, it’s bad. Moving on.  They’re both bad. Slightly less bad in white.
