Sorry, but I disagree.

I didn't see one SB hat made by any other company than Reebok. Sure, if you wanted a cheaper quality shirt you could purchase the cheaper shirt. If you wanted a SB hat with the Packers or Steelers on it, it had to manufactured by Reebok, period.

You do give the NFL too much credit for quality control. John Madden is a special advisor to Goodell. 5 million people that purchase the game might be happy with the game vs a few thousand on the net that didn't buy the game.

It's all about the NFL making money on their exclusive contracts.
