    Talking Re: How cool is social media?

    It's worked for me, too. I'm Facebook friends with ex-Royals IF Greg Pryor, and I was able to confirm that a cap I was examining was his, as the team and style could have been worn by either him or the player that followed him with #4. He even asked if the cap was for sale. It wasn't mine, but I gave him the contact info for the auction house who owned it.

    It is great sometimes. I bought this jersey from a former NJ Devils equipment manager and was able to get Ken Daneyko to confirm through Twitter that it was his practice jersey from his first NHL training camp.

    THIS jersey is crazy to me. Dont get me wrong, i dont know specs of NHL jerseys as Im a NFL guy. I dont mean this as insulting as thats an awesome piece... but im just thinking 'man, i cant even count the amount of times ive seen jerseys from the 80s like this at thrift stores with #s just like that on the back that I assumed were just beer league teams.' Which, I'm sure they were. My point I guess is other than it potentially being much heavier, I could see that on a thrift store rack and other than it being cool for the xmas colors - id never have guess it could/would be a legit nhl practice gamer. Nice shirt!

    This jersey is very light weight like a cheap retail, which made me suspicious, even with the COA from equipment manager and positive ID from Daneyko himself. I called a friend who is the biggest Devils collector I know, he bought about a hundred practice jerseys from the early to mid 1980`s directly from the team when they moved to the new arena and his practice jerseys matched mine exactly for weight, heat-pressed crest, iron on numbering and tagging. So yeah, this is definately something that if were on a thrift store rack, would fool a lot of people.
