thesteelcurtain58,

I would love to hear more about the fake Troy jersey. As you know, I was thinking about bidding on the Ben jersey but the photos did not match the jersey offered. I am wondering if that Ben jersey was also fake. Can you please PM me more about what you know. Us Steeler collectors need to stick together since we know how hard it is to find legitimate game used jersey's.

wow that's some huge news. I'm assuming that the jersey stunk badly like most of them do on NFL Auctions, which would mean someone really went a long way to fake a Troy. I'm sorry that happened.

Otis,
The Troy jersey I got from the NFL turned out to be fake and doctored. It has since been returned and now may blow up into something big.

Polamalu started adding the cross to his jerseys during the 2008 season.

He told me that in person and video evidence supports that as well.

And here was a tough decision...adding Ray Lewis. Whats cool is the 9/11 game was against the ravens so the rips, tears, markings in Rays jersey was caused by these same Pitt jerseys. I posted game screen shots to match it which came out well if you havent seen them yet. Worth the look up.

those are sweet and show how much better the Reebok jerseys were. Does anyone know the story behind the Polamalu cross? Is it a sticker or decal of some sort, is it custom-sewn, and why are they removed?

Curtain--is there any remnant of it above his nameplate? Stitching, glue residue, etc?

Thanks!

Ok. Time to get back on point and lock it down. I think I got all the Steelers GU 9/11 jerseys except one. According to the registry.

Its actually my favorite groupings and prob went overboard in bidding. But considering the scaricity of Pitt GU jerseys out there, the 9/11's are def worth it. Took about 4 months to accumulate them all.

Where's the cross on the Troy jersey? Does he no longer have those on his game jerseys?

Tough to find photos on this one. But you can see the front right shoulder matches.

I'm really liking this jersey. More so because I never expected to obtain one. Has anyone seen a Polamalu legit jersey out there? And where, when?

ben, esquire and chess...thx for the kind words. This should be fun.

Hey guys I'm really interested in the Zoltan Mesko jersey on NFL auctions. Esp because its a white gamer, and the white ones very rarely every come up for sale. I really want to try to win it as an Xmas gift to myself. What do you think the jersey might go for? I'm no Steelers expert, so need some help as far as what I should bid my Max. I don't want to over pay, but it seems I may have to. Its at 300$ right now.

From my limited experience on Steelers stuff, you are probably going to have to overpay for it. I am going after at least one of the Steelers jerseys as well, but unfortunately have a feeling they will go crazy and out of my range. Fingers crossed though!
