2012 collecting goals

[legaleagle92481]

as a followup to the thread jake posted about collecting highlights of 2011 I was curious as to what everyone's collecting goals are for 2012? Mine are to keep enhancing my collection in every way possible. I am sticking solely to football and focusing on future hall of famers/all pro type players and young players who I think will be big stars. In the former category I am hoping to find an Aaron Rodgers, a Maurice Jones Drew and a Junior Seau. In the later category I am hoping to find a Jason Pierre Paul, Julio Jones and AJ Green.

My number one goal is to get a Chipper Jones game used bat to go in my collection since I had to sell the 4 I had earlier this year.

My other goal is to enhance my game used commemorative baseball collection by 10 baseballs this year. I don't think that is unreasonable with the Red Sox, Orioles, Mets, Astros, and Dodgers already confirmed to be using commemorative baseballs this season. I figure to add a HRD ball or two, two ASG baseballs, Civil Rights Game, and hopefully the Marlins will have something to commemorate the new stadium.

I'm looking for a pair of Jeff Bagwell's 2005 Darryl Kile Tribute Spikes. In general, I'm hoping to add to my Bagwell cleat collection. If you have anything, feel free to email me. Thanks.

I also hope to find a Bagwell game-used glove. I'm hoping that one will show up one of these days.

By making this list, i realized how great 2011 was in collecting

Baseball
I am going to the 2012 all star game and will likely want an item on which ever Ray(s) players make it, hope the 2012 all star home jerseys are the light blue of the royals, but I am thinking it will be the royal blue

- MLB All Star Futures game used hat of the 1 or 2 rays players that make the team, I am thinking it will again be Hak Ju Lee and Tim Beckham, perhaps a ball used by one of them as well.

- Dan Johnson Rays game used hat or Cleats

- Hak Ju Lee spring training jersey,

- JP Howell WBC game used baseball from 09

- Matt Joyce's 2012 throwback game used helmet

Football
- Bucs London jerseys of Sean Jones, Michael Koenen, Jeremy Trueblood, Corey Lynch

- a 9/11 Bucs tribute jersey 6 have hit the market so far

- save up to buy the 1990 Bucs game used helmet that i have been eyeing for 6 months

- Trent Dilfer game dated Bucs jersey, 1997-1998 seasons

- 1996 ORANGE game used Bucs jersey, I am still upset that I sold that Kenneth Gant 6 years ago and cannot get it back

- Hardy Nickerson game used Bucs jersey from 1993-1999, I am amazed I let 2-3 of these sell from my personal collection over the last few years, considering e is my all time favorite player

- possibly a Mike Alstott gamer with good use, I sold RK Gibson a 2003 Bucs gamer back in 2005, that was the best Alstott gamer I ever saw, probably won't see that again though
