I have a question about some 2012 patches

[w8lifter28]

Has anyone else noticed that in Playbook and even Score that the patches look screen pressed rather than stitched? The bottom layer is stitched but the color separation is printed instead of layered. Just wondering why that is because the Nike jerseys they "wear" are stitched

For the hundred millionth time.

Nike jerseys were in short supply during the rookie premiere, so they used reebok ones from previous years to make up the gap.

Panini then purchased screen printed cheap ass nike jerseys for them to wear during the signings they did after the premiere, so they could say they were the only ones to have Nike Jerseys. Because the elite Nikes werent available for sale until early august and beyond, their connections couldnt get them cheap enough - so they went with the crap screen printed ones.
