- MrMysterious, on 10/12/2007, -0/+31Well there is a Nigerian prince that is unable to transfer his own money and needs your assitance.
- llarbkd, on 10/12/2007, -0/+29I figured they were burned or dropped in an endless hole or something.
- briangig, on 10/12/2007, -1/+28I bet they could make millions scamming people...
- hybridcreation, on 10/12/2007, -2/+25I've always wondered that. I figured they just sat in a warehouse somewhere....or got sold to collectors.
- DurkaMcDurk, on 10/12/2007, -5/+28they don't donate because the MLB is full of over-paid bitches.
- MrMysterious, on 10/12/2007, -2/+22Wow, the Colts are in the NFC now?
- hybridcreation, on 10/12/2007, -0/+20"Who collects old losing team Super Bowl merchandise?"
Take a trip over to eBay and have a look at some of the "collectibles" people are selling and ask that question again. - JesusFaction, on 10/12/2007, -0/+19you'd be surprised about the things some people collect...
- TRUEPATRIOT, on 10/12/2007, -0/+15finally thats cleared up but damn mlb burning the shirts and caps. why not follow the other leagues and donate?
- hybridcreation, on 10/12/2007, -5/+19
Why would MLB do anything that makes sense? - Rohkd, on 10/12/2007, -3/+15No digg, because there was a picture of a bears super bowl champion shirt, and under it saying " this item may be hard to find"
- adrenaline33, on 10/12/2007, -4/+15well..
- dizznit, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10Thanks Mace! Always wondered where they went. Man, would those hats/t-shirts go for a nice buck on eBay. Glad to see they go to the less fortunate. GO BEARS!
- Crystallio, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9It's ironic that the NFL donates the shirts to benefit people but that the people receiving the shirts would gain more benefit by selling them on eBay than by actually wearing them.
- LeBlue, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8I'd buy a Raider Super Bowl 36 Champions Shirt from an Ethipean Boy any day.
- TroubleInMind, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8So after the game tomorrow, the losing team's true fanboys will be on the way to Darfur to get in line for a shirt.

- Niallgriff, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8The Colts won the NFC?
oh sweet, i guess that means the Patriots still have a shot at the stanley cup. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7@Vision2098
Generally when a person has to explain that they're not racist they usually are.
You're a perfect example. - Durinthal, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7Go figure, I was wondering about that earlier tonight.
- D3koy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5That's cool...I think it'd be funny to be a missionary and travel to foreign countries and see kids wearing those shirts...
- ToRoE, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4I have a Cubs World Series t-shirt! Hell yeah!
damn that bartman. - CAHP19, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4now if only these could make their way to ebay
- jhnshft, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4I've always wondered what happened to these things. Man what I would give for a Buffalo Bills Championship t-shirt. Thanks for posting this article. dugg!
- diggsIt, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3As a Browns fan, that's the only place I might find Championship gear, 'In a land that time forgot'.
- PureGamer, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3I always figured they went to third world countries, no sense in burning or otherwise disposing of them...man those would be some pretty hot ebay items, considering that none of them see the light of day in the U.S.
- Rabbethan, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3As the proud owner of a Seahawks 2006 Champs shirt (who used to work at The Sports Authority) I know it doesn't always work this way. They usually send a box of shirts before the game which are cheaply made, which is why you see some cheaper looking shirts and such. But when the team losses they make you send the shirts back. Well all you have to do is send back that you were missing some shirts in the shipment. For some reason 3 of them were missing from our shipment...
- LucasKane, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4I remember that Philadelphia Eagles Super Bowl XXXIX Champions banner on Ebay... hilarious
- Chupacabra82, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4the title is retarded? sure about that?

And just to improve upon your point, they don't necessarily have a vendetta on facts, just facts that make Democrats look bad. - DrScott, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Globalization by proxy?

- NumberFour, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Dude, I'm pretty sure that was a joke. Everyone knows that they just picked an example. I bet if you looked he still dugg this.
EDIT: Im wrong, I just checked, he didn't digg this - DuctTape31, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Stuff like this has been known to show up in St. Jacobs ontario at the Farmers market, always laugh when i see hats and stuff for teams that didn't win on sale!!!
At the end of the day though, clothing impoverished people overseas in the 3rd world is a far more noble use than tossing it into a landfill. - sering, on 01/03/2008, -0/+1super

You've completely missed the point - they don't send them to developing countries to make sure the people don't know who the real winner was, they send them to those countries because the people could use them. Yes, they could probably send the shirts to France or the UK and many wouldn't know the difference, but they're trying to help out by giving the shirts to someone who can actually use them. If the NFL wanted to make sure the shirts never got back to a football fan they could just destroy them.
Also, I doubt any American cares if other countries enjoy the Super Bowl. And some of us actually enjoy soccer. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1i can remember on july 6th few years ago i saw a 1000 "Paris 2012" t-shirts selling for 150 euros (on ebay)
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1And that is...what?
- stickyhoney, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1On Ebay?
Stickyhoney | http://www.footyau.com.au/ - gispilot, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1This is pretty cool. I landed a NHL 2001 NJ Devils Stanley Cup Champs (lost to Colorado) and when I asked I was told it should have been destroyed.
