But as you pick through the bargain racks at your nearest Salvation Army or scour the internet for that truly hideous Christmas sweater, perhaps you should consider taking things in a different direction this December.
Say for instance, you're a diehard Detroit Red Wings fan. Why not show off your Christmas spirit and your Hockeytown pride at the same time? I'm happy to report that after some sartorial genius out there decided to mesh the two in a series of superbly righteous holiday sweaters, now you can.
Sure, they're about five times as expensive as the run-of-the-mill holiday sweater you'll likely find in your local Goodwill. And sure, you might only wear it once a year, but remember, fan is short for FAN-atic and these sweaters might just be the most ridiculous things to hit the rack since the "Linsanity" player tees were hanging in Moddell's.
Why settle for an ordinary ugly sweater when you can light up your holiday party with one that's inspired by your favorite sports team? As if being a Jets or Giants fan wasn't embarrassing enough these days. Now you can go the full nine yards and embrace the hilarity of your football team's woes with one of these gnarly knits.
It's hard to pick a favorite because there are so many gems out there. Of course there's the aforementioned candy cane-adorned Red Wings selection and the remarkably tacky Jay Cutler/Chicago Bears incarnation.
And this gem will surely warm the heart and soul of the most pathetic Knicks fan.
So get in the Christmas spirit, fork over the 50-some-odd bucks for one of these and crush this year's ugly sweater party like the whack job sports fan your know you are.
