A few years ago I found a place that did custom vintage jerseys and I was going to get Parrish.  But it looked so generic that if it was not at a Bengals game I'd say even most Bengal fans would think it was some high school jersey.

I'll get flamed for this, but I think Parrish is more worthy of the Hall of Fame than Ken Riley.  Ken Riley was a very good player, but he never held any NFL career records.  Parrish held the career return td record for 20 years until Deion Sanders passed him.  He is still 5th in NFL history.  He also has the highest single season punt return average since the AFL/NFL merger (18.8 in 1974 which is the 8th best mark in league history).

He went to 6 Pro Bowls (as a CB not return man) for the Bengals and 2 more times for the Redskins.  He was First Team All-Pro in 1979 and 2nd team in 1980 (also as CB) for Washington.  He was ProFootballReference's First Team All-Decade CB for the 1970's. (Riley was 2nd team)

No flaming from me, I'd put em both in the Hall.
