I saw someone wearing a bogus Pat Tillman jersey recently. It was the maroon jersey, but it had the Arizona flag shoulder logos. Those were only on the white Cardinals jerseys.

heh, reminds me of this one time I saw some guy wearing a Dwayne Wade ripoff...absolutely NOTHING about it was even close to right...it should look like this:

but as I said, there were four painfully obvious screwups with it:

1: HEAT was on the front instead of MIAMI

2: the sidepanels were straight up white

3: the red was a fire-engine red, when the real thing is more of a maroon

and finally: the numbers were regular block instead of the somewhat thinner italicized font they use

admittedly, I did secretly laugh at dude though :D I mean, could ya get more obvious?

adding to that, a few months ago I saw what was apparently a factory flub in this one store...Lakers Kobe home gold (a few years old, as IIRC it was a Nike jersey instead of a reebok), but the numbers were purple trimmed in white, and the sides were thin white-purple-thick white-purple-thin white. Hilarious to look at, I tell ya :hockeysmiley:

wow, that sleeve logo is horrible, you can partially see through the white on the wordmark, and the number outlines are embroidered. I don't understand why people buy fake jerseys. A replica is better than a fake 'authentic' IMO. If somebody can't afford a real authentic, they shouldn't buy a horrible fake authentic and pretend they can afford the real thing.

heh, the ish aint limited to ebay. as living proof that wack counterfeits do not discriminate, here goes this Freakish number...

heh, won't let me post the pics (the URLs are kinda funny), but I only have this to say about it: just because you sew numbers on doesn't make it authentic. It kinda helps to make the eagle heads a little bigger and use numbers that look remotely like the real jerseys, ya know? ;)

EDIT: here's this 'masterpiece' in all its glory :D

Im Sure Brett Favre wore this jersey

Falcons Jersey

Like HELL HE DID! he was drafted by the Falcons!

ok and to stay on both the topic of Favre and counterfit gear Can someone explain the rbk logo being near the colar??? (Used on nfl.com)

heres a picture Brett.jpg (kinda small)

I think the practice jerseys have the Reebok logo near the collar. At least they used to, Im not sure about now. But you would figure that Brett would have a red practice jersey being a QB. So who knows.

Even through the darkest days....this fire burns...always

first, to answer bgbry's question, yes Packers QBs wear red jerseys. these jerseys have the home jersey's gold-green-white-green-gold collar striping.

on to another Yahoo auction find...with apologies to good taste, here's another one for the slop pile :wacko:

busted lookin Atlanta jersey

the sad thing is dude's passing it off as a Hawks jersey...shoot, the only similarity this rag has to the real mccoy is that it's red with some white. That's it.

Gotta love a fake jersey with two different fonts.

Seriously, where did he get the Eagles font in Orange?

That wasn't the first thing you noticed that was wrong with the jersey was it??? :therock:

I believe those fake white sleeves have already been documented. I've seen many sellers selling those for a while.

That however took the cake.

Dude, I pass a fashion store everyday that has that jersey in the front window, and they don't advertise it as a throwback, just as a "fashion sleeveless jersey tee." But apparently, someone bought it, and now they're trying to sell it on eBay. Gotta love bootleggers, Can't Stop The Hustle.
