What item(s) have you been waiting forever to surface?

Re: What item(s) have you been waiting forever to surface?

I have two holes in my Mets jersey style collection I have been looking to fill for the longest time --

The 1982 Blue alternate game jersey
(V-Neck Pull-over with Mets logo and blue and orange stripes around neck and ends of the sleeves)

The 1994 Blue Road BP
(V-Neck pullover with "New York" scripted across the front in silver and underlined)

Any leads on these (any player will do) would be fantastic. I haven't seen one of either style for many years.

Not really "forever" but i'm looking to get the pair of 86 retro pants that Carlos Delgado wore during the August 19,20 games in 2006.

I have the game worn jersey and would love to get the pants.

I am waiting for a Steve Nelson Patriots gamer to surface. That would make my collection. I also would like to see a Jeff Bentrim CFL jersey, but I know the CFL jerseys are expensive. My 1st Joe Mays (pictured below) Eagles jersey will be tops in my collection, he was drafted this spring and will hopefully be playing in the fall.

Hi Everyone,

Game Used Gary Carter catcher's mitt.

I actually owned one from 1987 - 1989, but sold it to pay an overdue AMEX bill. Stupid. I have been chasing it ever since. Rob Steinmetz had one two years or so ago, but I didnt have the dough.

Best

Re: What item(s) have you been waiting forever to surface?

The infamous CMB(Cash Money Brothers) bats from Griffey Junior and Kevin Mitchell or was it Harold Reynolds or all 3?? I can't remember, I do know Junior had them made CMB 24 and I am almost positive I've seen
CMB 7 which would have been Mitchell. Based off of the characters in New Jack City, Junior and Co wanted everyone to know they got PAID!! I have not seen one in 10 years.........

Re: What item(s) have you been waiting forever to surface?

Ahuff, I saw that. Timing just is not right at all for me. Just purchased two Reds jerseys and I am eying a pink bat from this past mothers days. Always nice to leave something out there to chase later on.


Hey Larry, if you do not mind me asking. What is your connection with Todd VP? Can't wait to see that Reds jersey.

Adam, the connection is pretty arbitrary.

I'm a huge Detroit Tigers fan, and he pitched for them in 1996.

He pitched on the Tigers for just a handful of games during the horrible 1996 campaign. I was sixteen, and hadn't gotten to witness much success up to that point, and they were difficult as heck to root for. When they plucked Van Poppel off of Waivers from Oakland, I was pumped, because he gave me a little glimpse of hope.

Although he didn't pan out here, I stuck with being a fan because he was one of those elements of hope that kept me being a Tigers fan through the many dark years.

Over time, he's become somewhat of a legend for me, and now my fiancee and five year-old, soon-to-be-step-son are huge fans of his, to the point that my step-son sometimes decides he's Todd Van Poppel when it's his turn to pitch to me.

I like to collect jerseys of certain current and past Detroit Tigers from other teams they were on, and Van Poppel is far and away the top of that list.
