Morrison Rookie Jersey? Or Slurpee?

In the “How Have the Mighty Fallen” Dept., Lewiston Tribune sportswriter Ryan Collingwood, Class of ’02 at  the defunct Falls Christian Academy in Post Falls, Facebooks that he bought an unused Adam Morrison rookie (Charlotte Bobcats) jersey for $2 at a thrift store. Ryan figures it would have cost $100 new back in the day before the acclaimed rookie from Gonzaga became a bust with two world championship rings with the L.A. Lakers. Such has been the downward trajectory of A-Mo that Ryan wonders: “Should I have just gotten a Slurpee instead?”

Question: Would you rather buy an Adam Morrison Charlotte Bobcats' rookie jersey in mint condition for $2 or a Slurpee?
