NYJetsFans.com designs ‘EmPryor Strikes Back’ – Star Wars T-shirt

And to think, a year agoNew York Jets fans were likening Calvin Pryor to being a bust, this after the rookie safety struggled for spells last year. But now he not only has earned their praise.He’s apparently out of this world.

And worthy of being memorialized in fashion.

On Wednesday, while addressing the media outside of his locker, Pryor wore a T-shirt designed by NYJetsFans.com, thegroupthat led the anti-John Idzik protests a year ago. Just in time for the upcoming Star Wars movie (it is Star Wars right, not Star Trek?), the group designed an “EmpryorStrikes Back” T-shirt to play off the safety’s name.

Their ‘Air-Marshall’ T-shirt has been worn by super-fan ‘Fireman Ed’ and a ‘Fitzmagic’ T-shirt featuring the Jets quarterback’s famous beard was on Eric Decker when he boarded the team bus for the flight to London.
