I was hoping for a Steelers jersey but I got a Rams Jack Youngblood instead. It's as nice as a jersey gets and I really want it to go to someone who would truly appreciate it.
Thanks for any feedback.

Hi Rob!
Jack is known as Mr Ram and my personal favorite Ram. A true man. A legend in the NFL for playing with a broken leg. Came so close to a ring but came up short. He gave it all for his team and never complained! He was/is as great off the field as well doing many things for charities. Most likely how that jersey got signed!
Jack personifies what a Ram should look like. I love me some Jack Youngblood!!!
Feel free to PM me if you want. Would love to see a pic of the jersey! I have a ton of Bettis stuff. Maybe we can work something out?
This paragraph sums up Jack pretty well...
"Youngblood, who put together a Hall of Fame career as a member of the Los Angeles Rams from 1971-84, played through three playoff games with a broken leg that included his lone Super Bowl appearance. Youngblood didn't stop there; he played in the following week's Pro Bowl, to the shock of his NFC teammates"
