Barry Sanders Game Used Lions Jersey
Imagine Barry Sanders being a good friend of yours. You invite him to your wedding. Now imagine him giving you a "game used jersey" as your wedding gift. I tell you some of these stories of provenance you hear on eBay you just have to laugh about.....

I have a lot of NFL players as close friends and I'll tell you what, if I got one of their gamers as a wedding gift I'd be embarrassed. I don't think any player could actually be that cheap.

Bernie,
Agreed. It was a pretty cheap move, if it's true. That aside, does the jersey look authentic?

The only things correct on this jersey is the font, digits, size (44), and positioning of the "Reebok" logo.

Amazing. Not only did he not buy off the registry, he gifted a fake jersey.
