While some people may have their opinions on him as a Brewers fan this was a common sense buy at the price. Getting a nicely used Braun gamer was something I wanted in my collection.

Nice Stenson jersey. I have always wanted something of his from time with the Reds.

Looks like you got a nice price on it too. And nice mark up on the Braggs jersey too. lol

I was going to say... when I saw your jersey I first thought of the Topps card but realized it was a different jersey. Both great jerseys.

Nice Stenson jersey. I had forgotten the horrific way that guy died... horrible.

A few Royals Fan Fest pickups this morning...

A few locker name plates from Spring Training of Noel Arguelles and some of my Fantasy Camp Alumni coaches (the Dennis Leonard plate was signed this morning as well). The hat is a 2012 Stars and Stripes gamer hat of Billy Butler.

The Hosmer bat is absolutely hammered with heavy use and MLB authenticated to a 6th inning break against Ubaldo Jimenez on 9/9/2013. Bat died a hero on a broken bat single. I am fairly certain I also have the bat photo matched to a 3-4 with a 3 run home run the day before on 9/8/2013... That was Hosmer's 49th career home run.

Wow, what a sick Hosmer bat. My favorite type of gamers are blonde bats with tape and loads of pine tar... good stuff!

Being a Cardinals fan, I absolutely hate the Brewers, but I've always respected Braun's game. Even with the steroid nonsense, when he's on the field he plays the game the right way, and I respect that. In my mind, I class him into the Bagwell, Biggio, Sean Casey, Mark Grace, type players... They played on rival teams, I loved to hate them, but at the same time respected the heck out of them.

Re: February 2014 &quot;Pick-Ups&quot; Thread

I picked up this Joey Jones USFL jersey on Ebay yesterday. Jones was a star at Alabama and is now the head coach at South Alabama. The guy who sold it to me bought it at a thrift store for $10! After a ton of research I am all but certain its a gamer. The lettering on his name is in line with what the Stallions used in 1985. I have struggled to find pictures of the Stallions wearing the Red Jerseys in 85 but I did manage to find a video of a preseason game where they wore the red jerseys and a picture from a game against San Antonio that I think has to be from the 85 season. The jersey has been hemmed and that resulted in the Russell tag being removed. I was able to find a Joe Cribbs stallions game jersey where the same alteration had been made. So the lack of a tag didn't bother me as much. Can any of you spot any flaws in this being an actual game used jersey?

I even dropped Coach Jones an email and he said it passed the eye test.

Thanks, I'm with you, unfinished bats with tape and tar are my favorites as well!

FYI as follow-up to my post, here is the photo-match to career home run #49, hit with this bat.
