This thread is really funny. Bottom line though is that the Patriots don't release jerseys, period. Unless a player handed you his jersey, I don't see any way a Patriot "gamer" could be real. Just my opinion!
BTW, I'm really interested in some explanation Mr. Rocky as to why the Pats would take a Brady jersey, cut the sleeves shorter than he wears them, then extend them back? Doesn't make much sense.
BTW, just got done watching several DVD's on the Pats 2001 season on a 55" HDTV. I can assure you all of Brady's sleeves in that video are the very standard length and hem, no funky cut and extended sleeves.
As I said, the only logical explanation I can come up with is someone took a common pro-cut with those tight, short sleeves they come with, and cut and extended the sleeves to approximate a Brady.
Hilarious. This thing sells, allegedly with a Pats LOA, and yet the final auction listing title is:
"TOM BRADY PATRIOTS NOT GAME USED? ISSUED JERSEY 2001"
Somehow I'd think an LOA would clear all of that up.....unless there simply wasn't one to begin with. Also, do "team associates" draw up their own LOAs? "I, the undersigned, do hereby swear that I stole this item from the locker room, which constitutes a criminal offense and is cause for termination if caught. I am only putting myself in legal trouble here in case the random person I give this to wants to sell it down the road."
If there is a COA from the team AND supporting pictures, then why on earth would there be ANY question about whether something was used or at least issued?
And since you seem to have pics and a COA, why not allow everyone else on here to be exposed to knowledge that seems to be hidden from the rest of us? After all, a large part of the hobby is sharing vital information, and this certainly would be vital.
why are you guys wasting time on this regardless of his next reply, there is no need for any of us to respond further. we all have better things to do, i am sure.
If you had an LOA and supporting pics you would have put them in the listing, . I and others have investigated photo and video evidence of Brady in 2001 and there's no evidence of lengthened sleeves anywhere because there's no reason for the team to cut and restore jersey sleeves. 99% certainty you have a modified pro-cut, so I hope you did not pay too much for it.
As for your insulting the expertise of the members here? Some of the hobby's most knowledgeable post here, and it wouldn't take an expert to sniff out those sleeves in a heartbeat.
If you bought it as you show it, it is you that needs the education.
Happy new year.
