1...I think the rule here is ambiguous. It seems to imply that the lettering is only for team names/abbreviations or player names. AMGD appears to be something else and likely not legal with respect to that part of the rule. But then, ART 1 indicates that there are NO design restrictions in the neckline area. Does "design" include lettering or just patterning/coloring? But are letters just patterns? It seems to be illegal to me.

2...the rule says the number must be centered with respect to the part of the jersey intended to be visible (ignoring the part that is expected to be tucked in). I don't think there is any way you could interpret that to mean that the upper area is excluded. So, by rule, the jersey you describe is not legal....the numbers are not centered on the visible part of the back.

Would I ever notice such a jersey? Probably not if you hadn't mentioned it.
