Not 100% confirmed yet but it appears that the FBI has located Tom Brady`s Superbowl Jersey. The report said it was found outside the US.

I`m willing to bet it was on it`s way to a Russian museum to sit next to Bob Craft`s stolen Superbowl ring.

We`ll see soon enough.

Hopefully not a false report.

Looks to be legit, plus, the same poser had pawned his other stolen jersey from the Seahawk`s Game as well.
Texas Lt. Governor stood by getting it returned and had the Rangers look into it. International incident brought in the FBI.

Doesn't the fbi have better things to do than track down a sweaty game shirt?
The Patriots will reimburse the FBI costs and the Texas Lt. Governor`s costs. International theft is their jurisdiction.

Texas Pride is what kicked off such a search,( you don`t embarrass Texas) the Seahawk`s game jersey had no such importance because they were embarrassed.

You wouldn't believe the number of boats that get stolen in the SE, particularly FL, and get sold overseas, particularly mexico. Hundreds of boats a year, some pushing a million dollars each.

What does the fbi say? Not a priority. Talk to the state police. State police could give a rip. It doesn't involve asset forfeiture or fines.

A friggin piece of nylon that cost maybe $75 dollars?

You know one of the Candidates caught a lot of abuse for saying Mexicans are criminals.

An estimated $500,000 dollar piece of nylon. I understand what you're saying though. I think the big difference between stolen boats/cars and a shirt is the amount of resources used to recover it. They only needed to find one individual and there were hundreds of camera's in and around the super bowl that had him on video. Rosco P Coltrane could've found this guy.

Rosco did have trouble sometimes knowing who was who.Hazzards.jpg

If you mean they are using Mexico as a front without Mexican Government, or citizens, then you can`t fault Mexicans. But what are the odds these markets get by the Cartels ?
What I meant was it isn't mexicans stealing the boats. It's not mexicans shipping them overseas. A lot do end up in mexico, but some make it all the way to the middle east and russia.

That would be a hefty shipping cost. Trans Atlantic Navigation has to meet requirements. Small boats are not capable.

They fit in shipping containers. We aren't talking about mega yachts here. You would be surprised how expensive triple engine center consoles can be.

Really cheap to ship. Farm equipment or scrap parts. No real red tape for multi-national shippers playing three card monty. This isn't run by a couple of immigrants in a stolen pickup truck.

Cheaper to run on their hulls to the Caribbean.

Well i was wrong, I thought it would be costly. Makes sense if it`s cheap enough. Especially if you pack and ship from Mexico.

They ship from US ports. Newark, Miami, Baltimore. Direct to country. Easy Peasy. You would think it would be easy to stop. But sports memorabilia is much more critical.
