Re: February 2013 Pickups

I saw that Berkman, nice bat, I almost bid on it.
I picked up an '02 Pujols LVS. I'm assuming you bought the '03 Sam Bat?

Let's see that 02! No, I didn't see an 03. Where was it? I'm still looking for an 03,04, and 06 to complete the run. I'd like to find them signed, but it's getting hard to do.

Re: February 2013 Pickups

After waiting 17 seasons for another super bowl win, us 49er fans are experiencing something new-failure in the NFL's penultimate game. There were some seriously one sided calls (no holding penalty on the Jones KO return for TD, no ejection or penalty for shoving a ref) but defensively the 49ers picked the absolute worst time to show fatigue.

There were multiple instances where the defense had the Ravens in 3rd and long and almost every time they could not stop them. From missed tackles to penalties to failure to pressure Flacco, the defense just could not et it done when they needed to the most.

An absolute killer was the "illegal formation" penalty on the 1st play of the game, which negated a 20 yard gain by Vernon Davis. This was quite foreboding as it reminded me of the 1992 seasons NFC Championship. In that game Young hits Rice on the 1st or 2nd play of the game for a long TD only to have it called back for holding. That non play set the tone for the game and the 49ers lost to the Cowboys. The penalty in the SB on the 1st play really shifted momentum to the Ravens as the 49ers went 3 and out and the Ravens scored on their first drive.

It is not easy getting to the playoffs much less the SB and I think the 49ers know that they let one get by them. If the defense had played like it had played up until the 3rd quarter of the Patriots game, they would have cruised by the Ravens. Instead a tired, listless, out of synch thus mistake prone group showed up and the Lombardi trophy is in Baltimore instead of SF.

Nevertheless there are some new 49er pickups the last few months including:

2012 Vernon Davis away gamer worn vs New England
2012 Randy Moss home gamer worn vs the Bills
2012 Aldon Smith home gamer worn vs Buffalo

2010 Andy Lee International Series gamer vs Denver and played in London

1994 Brent Jones away throwback vs New Orleans. 2 TD game. Team letter
1994 Gary Plummer SB practice shirt with team letter

Always buying 49er game worn jerseys and ALL 1994 49er game used items. Paying a finders fee of up to 500$ for info that leads to a sale.

Re: February 2013 Pickups

Question for you: Were the gloves authenticated to that first inning HR? Or were they authenticated as used in that particular game? Have you photomatched them? I couldn't make out the authentication number in the image you provided, nor could I see a clear photomatch. The reason why I'm wondering is if A-Rod used multiple pairs of gloves in the same game, or if yours are tied to that particular achievement?

Very good question Les!
