Out of curiousity why does JO sports

Baltimore ravens jerseys from 9/11 have the patches removed? Isn't that what makes the jersey unique and an interesting buy? As appose to the NFL auctions ravens 9/11 jerseys having the patch on the left shoulder/chest area? IMO its a really cool patch and NFL auctions kept the patches on all there 9/11 jerseys. Will all of JO sports jerseys have removed patches?

According to the video JO made, the 9/11 patches were taken off by the NFL and not JO. I'm guessing the reason for this was that any jerseys auctioned/sold with the patched still attached would have all the proceeds given to a 9/11 charity. If JO purchased these jerseys from the team and not the NFL directly, the NFL wouldn't get the cash.

Correct... If you notice the Ravens 9/11 jerseys on NFLAuctions right now, they do have the 9/11 patches still because the proceeds are going to charity.

IMO, this is why I dislike companies like JoSports. I wish all of the 911 jerseys went to NFL auctions instead of companies like JoSports that have "Auctions" that aren't really auctions and they have reserves set that make them sell for their original retail asking price. It's just bad for the hobby.

The other argument is, I would much rather have a 9/11 jersey money go toward a 9/11 charity than to a sports memorabilia company like JoSports. If it was a regular jersey, I wouldn't care as much, but for every dollar JoSports gets from these jerseys is a dollar a 9/11 charity doesn't get.

It Is Very Simple!!!!
If You Dont Want An Nfl 9/11 Opening Day Jersey
With The Patch Removed-then Dont Buy The Jersey From
J.o. Sports!!!!
No One Is Forced To Buy Anything From J.o. Sports,
Or Any Other Company For That Matter.
Maybe You Should Stop Complaining, And Keep Your Opinions To Yourself.

Maybe those who have $2,000 to buy a jersey should give that $2,000 to charity instead and feel good about themselves.
Greed is a word that could describe all of us.
