Last year I noted that I found it shocking that fans still wear Mark Chmura jerseys at Lambeau Field. Chmura, for those who don't remember, was a Packers tight end in the 1990s who was accused of raping a teenager at a post-prom party.

He was acquitted of rape, but over the course of the trial we learned all sorts of sordid details about his life that make it hard for me to understand how anyone could think he's an admirable person. (If you want to know more about those details, Court TV's coverage is a good place to start.)

After I wrote that post last year, I heard from several Packers fans who told me that Chmura jerseys are actually a common sighting at Lambeau. But now Zoner Sports has a picture that takes things one step further: A Chmura jersey worn by a kid who looks like he's too young to have been alive while Chmura was playing.

It's one thing to have bought a Chmura jersey while he was an active player and before his rape trial, and to still own that jersey today. But did someone actually think it would be a good idea to buy that kid a Chmura jersey at some point after we learned that his favorite off-field activities included hot tub parties with drunk teenagers? And how are Rae Carruth jerseys selling these days?
