US Mens National Team Game Worn Jerseys

I would like to buy one or two game worn US Mens National team jerseys for my collection if anyone has any they would be willing to sell. If anyone has some please let me know and thanks.

Good luck with that - most of those are very hard to locate and will cost you a pretty penny. I myself have been fortunate enough to gather four such jerseys - Earnie Stewart vs Venezuela ('03), Bobby Convey from Confed Cup, Beasley (05' Mexico WCQ), and the grandest one - Eddie Pope from '02 'WC from Portugal game signed by the entire team. None of which are for sale BTW.

Your best bet is to hook up with your local MLS team and see if they are having any fund raisers - since the team reps are likely the best source to be able to obtain said jerseys. The other option is Yanks-Abroad which has auctioned a few off after qualifiers but I don't think they will have many in the near future since the US is through the qualifiers phase.

Thanks. It is amazing how you can locate some jerseys from other countries, but the US seems to be extremely difficult. When you bought Convey/Beasley, were those from MLS fundraisers?

Stewart, Convey, and Beasley all came from DC fundraisers. The Stewart was from the Kick-off luncheon two years ago, the Beasley from the golf outing this year, and can't remember at what event I got the Convey.

The Pope jersey was actually at the Screaming Eagles annual fund raiser that benefitted Eddie Pope's foundation. Funny story on that one - there was an old lady who was hovering in front of all the bid sheets near the end and I loudly said I wish people who weren't bidding would not hover over the table. She heard me and gave me a look - later I discovered it was Eddie's mom :D All was good however when she saw the final bid on the jersey - but she was none too pleased with him for auctioning it off. Funny listening to Eddie tell his mom he had plenty more. :D
