Re: My collection, hopefully some HOF's here.

Thanks for the explanation and love the pieces so far thesteelcurtain58. I made a post back on the Colts thread with a couple of photos from the '04 Pro Bowl that may match up a scuff mark that appears on your helmet.

Love seeing people's own personal collection and hope to see more of yours.

Re: My collection, hopefully some HOF's here.

Abstract..if you read what I wrote, i never denied asking for opinions. Just constructive opinions. I'll admit maybe I took some things written the wrong way due to what I previously stated. I welcome knowledgeable input from the educated members. Just not from those who for months or years cont to bash anyone's collection whose is not their own.
That's why when Ken Goldin joked about my title of HOFs, in some respect I had to word it that way because I didn't want to eventually debate who of my collection is HOF worthy. Anyways..I intended my post to positive and to share. Ex. Imagining how those black marks got on ray lewis' jersey, meeting Bryce etc
Enough. Let's move on....this has gotten old.

"RKO18 says that he has yet to see a photo matched helmet. I would like his and others thought."

Yep. I just read it again, and you definitely asked for thoughts. For a minute there, I thought I was going crazy.

Re: My collection, hopefully some HOF's here.

Wow! I didn't say one bad thing about your collection (No one did, in fact). I'm sorry you are so sensitive. I guess I need to re-read what you were asking regarding people's thoughts and opinions on the Manning lid, because I'm totally lost at what you are so mad about. I will stay out of your way in the future.

Re: My collection, hopefully some HOF's here.

I invite constructive input. Maybe it's the way it's been worded. I've read this board for years, read the Chicago bears thread, the threads that have been deleted or locked etc so maybe I'm sensitive.
I think the board should be about sharing knowledge, collections and constructive critiicism is part of the deal. But also you know with some members their first thought is to bring down others. I could see it coming. Ex.the board railing on the Pitt guy who met Ryan Clark. What's not to appreciate in that? Yet a couple have to find something wrong with it.
And about my ball and going home...thats not it, I don't have to explain myself but on one side it is my right to go home. With the fraud, abuse and outright thievery that goes on in this industry it's no wonder that people are hesitant to share details of their collection. Im perfectly fine sharing this with family friends etc and not people I don't really know. And no one viewing whatni have for the next 40-50 years. I did because the vast majority of posters here are very likable and knowledgable. So mr. "go home" you can view my collection, give input but I really don't care what you think of me. Or when you see my thread, you can please move on. If you knew anything about me, I posted to share with others for their enjoyment like I enjoy viewing others. This does nothing to stroke my ego or any other benefit. If anything it exposes me.

"...so go on guys, try to rip this one. btw the decals are def within the bumper.
...less than 24 hrs and im thinking of no longer posting. its been fun. those particular people know why."

Did I miss something here? We don't try to "rip" anyone's stuff. Great jerseys man, seems like you have a misconception of what this site is all about.

Wait? So, in the Indy thread you ask for an opinion on a photo match and members reply, giving you some feedback (apparently ones you didn't like), so now you're taking your ball and going home?

I think the comments were very civil (right or wrong) and just what you requested, no?

I believe you the helmet is real, but you did ask for thoughts

Re: My collection, hopefully some HOF's here.

Great jerseys!!! Please keep posting. I love seeing them. I don't believe anyone is "ripping" on your Manning helmet. Just trying to find a definitive photo match. Visual's collection is Hall of Fame worthy. I don't believe he is trying to knock down your Manning helmet whatsoever. I hope you continue to post as you've already shown your collection is Hall of Fame worthy and I, for one, would love to continue to drool over your grail items. How were you able to hook up with Bryce (if you don't mind me asking).

Peace,

John

A bit of back and forth in the Colts thread, think he might of got them mixed up. Thus the "decal bumper placement" is just kinda hanging around.

this is the red jersey with the navy yard patch after that horrible day.
nice guy. not as he is portrayed in the media.

Re: My collection, hopefully some HOF's here.

First of, welcome to the site. What a way to start posting on GUU, Ray Lewis jersey with 9/11 patch and a P. Manning helmet! Keep posting your collection and feel free to talk about it. That is what the site is for.
