Re: Show Me Your Chicago Bears Stuff.......

I don't think Lincoln wore this in a game. I haven't been able to find a photo of him wearing a jersey that didn't have cuffed sleeves.

Sammy your thoughts on this appreciated

Harv,

You are correct. I, like many on this forum have to juggle student loans, mortgages, car payments and daycare expenses.

I am very price conscious! I also do my homework and pay a fair price.

Here's an example:

You can go to eBay and search for an Urlacher game used jersey and you will find this gem for $7,999.95 or do some digging and find this gem for $6,375.00 Both jerseys seem nice and show some game use and someone could assume that this is the going rate for an Urlacher... What if I told you that I know a guy that is selling a rock solid provenance Urlacher jersey with amazing use for 1/2 the price of these two?

Let's move on! Still waiting to see your jerseys!

Harv,

You asked for my thoughts on this item. I gave you my thoughts.

Sammy, I apologize if I seem out of line. I thought that you, being the veteran in the hobby, would shed some light on the particulars of the jersey said. Mainly being physical specifics of the shirt. But as I ramble through old posts of this vast thread, I've noticed that for you price consciousness comes first in factor deciding decisions. Again apologies, its not rocket science and being so new the hobby I've no right to"step on toes" on how one fellow defines his collection opposed to another.

Re: Show Me Your Chicago Bears Stuff.......

It's overpriced.

Really?? 175.00 overpriced for a gamer? I was asking your thoughts on authenticity of jersey as a game used item, not the value. An authentic cost 125.00, you would think 50.00 more for a game used item isn't overpriced.
Thanks all the same

Re: Show Me Your Chicago Bears Stuff.......

Here's an eBay special that made me go "Ha?"

At first it looks like a nice game used/ready jersey but then:

It's tagged 2002
Has a patch that was only worn during home games in 2001
Curtis Conway played for the Chicago Bears from 1993 to 1999

This Conway is a No Way...

Re: Show Me Your Chicago Bears Stuff.......

Looks like I made a calculation mistake...

Jay's completion percentage should be 60.1

Re: Show Me Your Chicago Bears Stuff.......

Sammy, How could you rate Grossman as far as "greats" in QBs the Bears have had last 10-15 yrs?
-Harvey

As far as Chicago QB's go, he's a top 3 quarterback. With that said, this means we have had some terrible quarterbacks in the last... who am I kidding, FOREVER!

The top 3 QB's in Chicago in the last 30 years:

Jim McMahon
1,492 Completions | 2,573 Attempts
58.0 Completion Percentage
18,148 Yards Passing
100 Touchdown Passes | 90 Interceptions

Rex Grossman
521 Completions | 971 Attempts
54.2 Completion Percentage
6,164 Yards Passing
33 Touchdown Passes | 35 Interceptions

Jay Cutler
1628 Completions | 2651 Attempts
32.2 Completion Percentage
18,725 Yards Passing
129 Touchdown Passes | 93 Interceptions

Re: Show Me Your Chicago Bears Stuff.......

I wouldn't really say that Grossman "led" the Bears to the SB, they didn't make it because of Grossman, that's for sure. The Bears made it to the SB because of the defense, not the offense or Grossman.

All and All still a beautiful jersey. If you ever want to move that grail let me know Sammy.

Re: Show Me Your Chicago Bears Stuff.......

i meant "where' would you rate him as a great QB... Myself, I think he would have to be in the top 3 since he did lead that team to the Super Bowl.

Re: Show Me Your Chicago Bears Stuff.......

This is the only Grossman that I own...

It's not game used but a very rare style!
