The Aaron Rodgers/Jordy Nelson autographed football is not authentic in my opinion. The Rodgers looks particularly bad. Plus both signatures are signed with the exact same (crappy) pen, which is incredibly unlikley in any scenario.

Good call. Lots of other red flags too - low starting price (not unprecedented for larger dealers, but unlikely for an apparently smaller dealer like this), signature style (aside from just looking bad) is not what Rodger's typically uses on footballs, zero information on where this was supposedly signed, etc. Also looks like Matt Ryan and Julio Jones used the exact same pen on their football.

I'm not good with Fielder (he was a star in Wiscosnin for years, but I never wanted to shell it out or his auto because I knew he had one foot out the door).
And check it out - it's one of those made in China balls.
