I have found a source that can produce the Mean Joe Throwback Jersey. I would need about 20 people to make an order. These are 100% Nike products not knock offs. As of right now they are not sure that we can get the number on top of the stripes but will let me know. There are 2 Options: Vapor - this is what the team wore in the game. It even has the 1967 inside the collar. ($250-$300) Then there is the standard Nike jersey which lacks some of the amazing detail but still looks right and is more than half the cost ($125-$150) You can customize any number you want (if not it will be 75). This is just a vote to see if which one I should negotiate pricing on to set up an order.

A growing number of North Texas grads likely don't even realize this, but one of the best defenders in the history of football played there and will finally have his number retired (again). Let that sink in; the Steelers boast names such as Bradshaw, Webster, Stallworth, Swann, Harris, Ham, Woodson, Blount, etc. and they have retired just one number.

Greene, out of North Texas, arrived in the Steel City in 1969 and, over the next 13 seasons, anchored one of the most feared defensive units in league history. The "Steel Curtain" helped Pittsburgh reverse its fortunes and claim four Super Bowls from 1974 to 1979. Greene was named the NFL's top rookie in 1969, earned 10 Pro Bowl nominations and was named the league's best defensive player in 1972 and '74. The 6-foot-4, 275-pounder started in 172 of 181 contests before hanging up his cleats after the 1981 campaign. No Steelers player has worn Greene's iconic number since then. "I'm overwhelmed with emotions," Greene said. "I'm extremely pleased and I know that Dan (Rooney) and Art (Rooney II) put a lot of thought into making this decision. Retiring jerseys is not something that the Steelers do. That makes it even more significant."
