It's illegal to sell counterfeit items and that is what the Chinese jerseys are. Kudos to the government.

Hmmm.. I bought my Mendy jersey off Steelers.com last season and have worn it 3-4 times.. It looks like crap and the letters are flaking already.. Every single one of my China made jerseys are perfect..

The Steelers.com jersey was made in Indonesia by the way..

Now, is that jersey a replica or a premier? That could be the thing too.

The U.S. Senate’s Judicial Committee unanimously passed the controversial ‘Combating Online Infringement and Counterfeits Act’ today, a bill that could be used to crack down on many BitTorrent sites and other file-sharing platforms. The bill would give the Department of Justice the unprecedented power to take over domain names of websites that are deemed to facilitate copyright infringement.


U.S. Government Seizes BitTorrent Search Engine Domain and More

Written by enigmax (http://torrentfreak.com/author/enigmax/) on November 26, 2010 Following on the heels of this week’s domain seizure of a large hiphop file-sharing links forum, it’s clear today that the U.S. Government has been very busy. Without any need for COICA, ICE has just seized the domain of a BitTorrent meta-search engine along with those belonging to other music linking sites and several others which appear to be connected to physical counterfeit goods.

While complex, it’s still possible for U.S. authorities and copyright groups to point at a fully-fledged BitTorrent site with a tracker and say “that’s an infringing site.” When one looks at a site which hosts torrents but operates no tracker, the finger pointing becomes quite a bit more difficult.
When a site has no tracker, carries no torrents, lists no copyright works unless someone searches for them and responds just like Google, accusing it of infringement becomes somewhat of a minefield – unless you’re ICE Homeland Security Investigations that is.
This morning, visitors to the Torrent-Finder.com site are greeted with an ominous graphic which indicates that ICE have seized the site’s domain.

It appears the Feds aren't messing around. Looks like Limewire (http://www.limewire.com/) has suffered a similar fate - a bunch of record companies got an injunction against them.

This is good and bad in my eyes.. It starts with this and what else do they start shutting down? SU.com because we didn't get the NFL's consent to talk about football??

It's definitely a reason why we only allow snippets of articles with a link to the original article to be posted and don't allow entire articles to be posted.

Just wondering, does the gold color of the letters on the back match the gold on the sleeves or is it slightly off?

NFL.com. I found a jersey for sale locally that looks to be authentic. It is used so it does not have tags, but everything else about the jersey is perfect. The number placement and size is correct, and the stitching is high quality. The name on the back is the correct font, has the right spacing, and is the correct height. I used to be a graphic designer, so these little details on the fake jerseys bug me. However, the letters are more yellow-ish than gold. I can't tell if its a very good quality fake (which I have yet to see) with the wrong color letters, or if it was poorly taken care of and some of the gold coloring has faded away.
