Yes; I have a Dallas Cowboys shirt made from some sort of jersey-like material, a Cowboys jacket, and numerous Red Wings, Tigers, and Lions T-shirts.

I have a Saints shirt and the free SI Saints jacket, a Braves hat, and lots of MSU shirts and hats.  No jerseys.

I'm too old for jerseys, imho, but I own hats, shirts and various other articles of crummy teams.

I do have a stack of replica Jerseys of old bad Jets QB's that my mom insists on buying as a Christmas gift.  It has become a running joke between me and my brother. I save them for laughs- Favre, Tebow, Sanchez- I do like the Pennington one; can't wait for the Geno Smith.

I have a German away kit from the 2012 Euro, with Schweinsteiger's name on the back, and a "Deutschland" red, yellow and black scarf. I also have an Arsenal coffee mug my girlfriend gave me.

My favorite sports apparel I've ever owned has been 90s starter jackets. Absolutely beautiful:

My primary hat is a Steelers hat.  My "dirty" hat is a StL Cardinals hat.  I've currently got a pair of Blues shorts in my rotation, but I don't really like them.  I've got a Cardinals tshirt too, but I tend to pimp bands and dumb stuff on my tshirts so I don't have a lot of sports shirts.  A Steelers Bettis jersey that I rarely wear because they usually lose when I wear it (but I'm not superstitious Roll Eyes ) and a couple of old Blues sweaters I never wear.

I've gone through countless hats, mostly sports themed.

Pennington was a legit good quarterback.  Well, except for the "staying healthy" part, of course.

You don't have to be 12 to own sports gear of your favorite team.  Many adults of all ages wear jerseys of their favorite player or championship gear or just team pride.  There is nothing childish about it.

Not childish...but a big waste of money.

Why? Gotta wear a shirt or a cap, why not make it one with your team's logo?

And yes, FTR, I own a Crosby Winter Classic jersey (my pride and joy, a 40th b-day gift from my sister), more Pens t-shirts than I can count (think one is Lemieux from when he was still playing), a long-sleave jersey, a golf shirt, a scarf, PJ bottoms, slippers, and a ball cap or two. Most were gifts.

Plenty! I just now realized I missed the "team(s) (plural) aspect of the question.

I now, FTR, also own a Blue Jackets long sleeve T (mostly a work shirt) and ball cap (got free at a game last month). But I'll be wearing my Pens regalia in full whenever they come to Nationwide next year. Cheesy

Not necessarily, no.  Buying a couple shirts or hats isn't that expensive.

Yes. Quite a bit actually. Nothing terribly expensive though. I have a number of Indians and Browns t-shirts and hoodies, though no jerseys. Most of them were Christmas or birthday presents for me over the years. I don't know the last time when I've purchased sports gear for myself was, though I have bought some for family members for Christmas or birthdays.

In college sports, I have some Wisconsin stuff, some Notre Dame stuff and I think a Michigan sweatshirt somewhere that I used to wear once a year whenever they played Ohio State.

I have a number of Ottawa Senators things, including an old jersey and baseball cap. It's too cliche to wear a Sens baseball cap though, so I  am more likely to wear my Winnipeg Jets or Quebec Nordiques hat.

Of course! I have quite a few Italian national team jerseys and got my first Napoli jersey for Christmas. Ironically, wearing team gear at Soccer games in Italy almost seems frowned upon. Jerseys seem to be a no-no in Naples (no one wears them except maybe little kids at the games. I made sure to wear regular clothes to the game I attended. It's probably some fashion thing over there). I wore my jersey to the Italy-Malta game where a few more people had them on but not many. Hell, a lot of people don't even bother to wear the team colors yet they're insanely passionate. It's strange.

I used to own an Eagles jersey but I like to stick to basic team gear (a shirt) instead.
