AOL Sports' popular FanHouse blog has added an online store selling apparel, collectibles and authentic autographed memorabilia. Items sold in the FanHouse Shop include licensed merchandise from the NFL, NBA, NHL, MLB and other major sports leagues.

FanHouse will also soon offer live online autograph sessions where visitors can order signed memorabilia and interact with their favorite sports stars and celebrities while viewing signings of their own items.

"This provides another level of content and community integration across our site and another way for our users to really connect with the sports and teams they are most passionate about," said Derrick Heggans, general manager, AOL Sports, in a statement.
