NFL Jerseys for Your XBL Avatar

The whole Xbox Live Avatar Marketplace thing has always struck me as a bit squicky--why would you pay real money for fake stuff for your fake online persona? But Microsoft and EA Sports are doing their best to change that perception of mine. Their latest assault on my principles (not counting all that nice Forza Motorspot 3 gear that recently went up) is the introduction of authentic NFL jerseys for sale. All 32 NFL teams are represented, though there aren't currently any alternate jerseys. That's the good news.

The bad news is that each of these jerseys will run you 320 MS points ($4) and you can't customize your number or name on the back of the jersey. It would be cool to have your XBL handle on the back of your jersey and the fact that you can't pretty much... oh, hell, who am I kidding?

I am so weak. No word from EA Sports on whether or not NCAA football jerseys will be made available at some point but, if they do, I'll be down another 320 MS points.

UPDATE: The jerseys are also available for purchase via PlayStation Home.
