He was my all time favorite player. He retired in 2004. Is it okay for me to still where it? Or should I hang it up for good?

Pls wear it. So what if he's retired.
After all, George won the NFL Rookie of the Year award in 1996, and was the Titans' starting tailback until 2003, never missing a start due to injury. He made the pro bowl 4 times(1997-2000), and assisted the Titans to a championship appearance in Super Bowl XXXIV, where they lost to the St. Louis Rams 23-16. George gained 391 combined rushing and receiving yards in the Titans' 3 playoff games that year, and went on to rush for 95 yards, catch 2 passes for 35 yards, and score 2 touchdowns in the Super Bowl. He also famously slammed Ray Lewis down during the game (video clip).
George signed a one-year contract with the Dallas Cowboys on July 23, 2004 for $1.5 million plus incentives that could have earned him more than the $4.25 million he would have made under his contract with the Titans, who released him on July 21 in part due to salary cap considerations. He is out of football as of the 2005 NFL season. Though he has not yet announced his retirement, it is unlikely he will ever play again.
His career totals include 10,441 rushing yards, 268 receptions, 2,227 receiving yards, and 78 touchdowns(68 rushing and 10 receiving)
On June 20, 2004, he married singer Tamara Johnson of the group SWV. He has a son, Jaire, by a previous relationship.
On November 15, George began hosting a new series on G4 called G4's Training Camp. [1] The show focuses on taking gamers into their favorite sports.
Eddie is now involved in the restaurant business, with the Eddie George Sports Grille in downtown Nashville, TN, where he played for the Tennessee Titans, and Eddie George’s Grille 27 in Columbus, OH, next to his alma mater, The Ohio State University.
HE'S THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!

If he didn't sighn it , it is nothing more than a shirt. If he did sign it, frame it and consider selling it. As it is now you won't get much for it unless lightning strikes and he makes it into Canton. Unfortunately, that is not likely the way other runningbacks are outperforming him. He was a good running back but lets face it, he failed to win the big one in Tennessee, and he fizzled out in Dallas. If this were an Oiler jersey I might say treat it differently, but there must be thousands of his jersey in Tennessee. Personally, I did the same thing with Campbell, wear his jersey after he retired, but now he is in the Hall and it sits in a closet somewhere. You never know.

You should probably make a pillowcase out of it so you can cry yourself to sleep at night after watching the Titans go down to another horrid 2-14 season.

Busy with his election, Berlusconi, AC Milan, he did have time to worry about the growing corruption in the league, the league the last three left, and his 3rd place teams are seemingly at risk.
