Jim Craig game used olympic goalie stick, Bob Owen (1960 olympic team) stick and the puck which was the "own goal" that Ottawa scored on themselves giving Travis Moen the GWG in the 2007 Stanley Cup finals.

Mine would have to be one of Jim Thome's Rookie jersey's . I know where they both reside at the moment. If I could only pry one away
from the guy's who have them.

Joel -

I'll agree with that analogy... although both are items with undisclosed locations...

I would say a Holy Grail is an item you want, but have no idea of the location or where to begin - after all King Arthur and his Knights never located the Grail...

On the other hand, a White Whale - named for Moby Dick as stated earlier - should be an item you want and you have a general idea of where to begin searching and ultimately the item will surface (no Moby Dick pun intended) as Ahab eventually did find the Great White Beast...

My White Whale , I guess would be A Pair of Vernon Wells Game Used Cleats with MLB Hologram. I have only seen 1 pair for sale and that was in 2005 on a Jays/MLB online auction. They SOLD for $170 to MLB screen name Xristos M . So I have a General Idea of where they may be , but cant locate this guy. Maybe they have been sold or traded since then.

My Holy Grail so to speak would be 1 of Gregg Zauns game used Hockey Style Catcher Helmet/Mask. I Loved how he had his Customed Painted.

My White Whale would have to be the gray 2005 World Series Bobby Jenks jersey.
I'm sure I will never get a chance to buy it.

Re: What is your White Whale?

My White Whale without a doubt, would be a Barry Larkin fielding glove with tons of use. Keep an eye out folks!

You look for my white whale and I will look for yours.

Deal?

Re: What is your White Whale?

My white whale has become a game used Jimmy Rollins jersey. I have bought and returned 3 different jerseys after discovering inconsistencies with the jerseys and/or team letters once I got them in person. There are seemingly lots of Rollins jerseys out there but not all of them are what they seem to be at least to me.

I just had a good lead on a "legit" Rollins jersey with the help of a forum member but the seller this morning indicated it was no longer available for undisclosed reasons.

If anyone out there knows of an available Rollins gamer I got my harpoon ready...

Sincerely,
Captain Ahab

Sounds like a deal!

Re: What is your White Whale?

My white whale would have to be


1 - a full Rafael Palmeiro MLB uniform from one or more games that can be photomatched to a homerun. I know, will never happen

or

2 - a full NFL uniform

or

3 - a full NBA uniform (jersey, shorts, sneakers) of Gallinari



#3 is more than likely the most obtainable goal.
