Re: What's it worth? Frank Thomas rookie cap

Road dog what do you have in your collection? any items for sale? I'm looking for locker name plates if u have any. Buc lmfao, you aren't superman defender of the universe. you still haven't shown anything on your rack lately??? and yes I did consider big Frank's massive cranium but still 3 games of use isn't that extreme! I sweat a lot too and my hat wouldn't be that F'd up!!!! Its good to want something to be what you hope it is, since nobody wants to get screwed... I truly hope it is the real mccoy! I just think I good story is all it is.

Didn't get screwed. It's the real deal.

So you're an expert in wear and tear on game used items? You know how much a player sweats during a game? You know how much action that player saw during the game? I've seen some really worn and dirty baseball uniforms, hats, and equipment from just one games use.

Frank also has a big noggin, it wouldn't take long at all to stretch out a hat, did you take that into consideration? Probably not, but you're stuck on looking for the negatives and attacking someone for no reason.

You ever hear of a fitted hat???? 7 1/8 isn't that big considering I wear 7 5/8. isn't the point of a fitted hat, so that it fits properly and so that it doesn't get stretched out!!!??? oh and brand new hats just don't get stretched out from 3 games big boy it takes time and washings for that, being a hat wearer I would know. so I stand by my statement. anyone care to chime in? id expect more from a varsity letterman!!! lmao...

Where's the all the great stuff from you're rack?? I don't see you posting anything lately, is that a prerequisite to post on this site now? I'm shocked you only posted 2 jerseys from your "rack" because I'm waiting to see the rest of your grail collection.

I'm not some superman defender, I'm just sick of you and your BS. You're nothing but a pretender with a keyboard and nothing better to do than make yourself feel good about yourself by tearing people and their collections down.

I have heard of a fitted hat, thanks for checking. I can tell you I am certainly overjoyed that a hat expert such as yourself has taken the time to school me on hat wearing and sizing, thank you so much.

Big Boy, huh?

Sorry statsman, thread got off track, but that usually happens when palehose and net0 get involved in a thread, just take a look at what they did to the Bears GU thread, a real shame.

Re: What's it worth? Frank Thomas rookie cap

My initial thread was asking for advise on a hat i was excited to own. It has been proven to be authentic and that's where I stand. Palehose and net0 can say what they want... But I have Frank Thomas's game worn Rookie 1990 hat. If you see it in a upcoming auction feel free not to bid Palehose and Net0. No hard feelings. Go Sox

By the way, how do you know Frank didn't like his hat tight, some people wear a larger or smaller hat due to preference.

Frank looked at the tagging and said it was his hat. I'm sure he knows what size he wore.

Re: What's it worth? Frank Thomas rookie cap

yeah ok, after Matt and Rick walked away the only other person contributing any top shelf stuff was pale. If it wasn't for him the thread would of been dead a long time ago! there was nothing of value being posted on there forever. go google frank thomas game worn hats, I just found atleast 4 diff thomas hats from a thread on a diff forum, the water mark on his pics says big hurt museum or something... lets just assume those hats were worn for more than three games, the use on them looks no were near as bad they actuyall look normal not beat to hell or yellow stains and stretched out. the show moderate use fof the amoint of.time they were used. Not a month of use in 3 games. you will see.

Re: What's it worth? Frank Thomas rookie cap

I am with those that feel that this thread should be locked. Most of the posts now are nothing more than several people nitpicking about various details of the cap. Were it to be a potential purchase, that's one thing, but the owner has researched it, gotten advice and opinion from people he trusts, and is quite happy with his item. That being the case, what is the point of keeping this open with so many posts being little more than negative hair-splitting?

I agree Dave. And it's my thread.

Re: What's it worth? Frank Thomas rookie cap

I'm not denying the size is correct, but my suspicion was correct all along, this thread was started to gauge the value of your item and not so much your love of it.... you wanted to gry an idea as to what it will go for in auction... which is fine, but don't sit here and act like that's not the case. you even said I don't think I could ever sell this , and not a few days later your talking about how we will see it in auction soon??? Dude seriously lmao!!!! you can try to pump your item up, but my belief is that you know the story is too good to be true and you keep repeating the same thing over and over how you know its legit and frank said so and you.have 3 letters and this and that. maybe you know its bad and you come on here to spark interest to dump it... everyone has an agenda. your wishy washy. I beloved Frank fan wouldn't be sooo gaga over a hat say they couldn't sell it unless the price was rite, then say they are auctioning it or planning too, and have this great bsckground story about it, and then ask people what they would pay to see if its worth it to sell it. I will bet u that hat would fetch 600 at best with premium id guarantee that! I'm sure you figured u mine as well dump it now while the hof is still fresh I'm peoples minds and you can get a couple bucks for it.... didn't u just pick this hat up recently? I'm all about flipping but don't act like you love it when ur ready to sell it so fast.

Wear a hat for a week while playing baseball in the summer, then out it in a bag for 24 years. It will look a little rough when you pull it out I'm sure.

Re: What's it worth? Frank Thomas rookie cap

I loved Big Hurt. Still do....

But sweet baby J, I'm ok if I don't see another thread about him for another year!

Great hat, great auto's, cool story. Some believe its fine, others don't. We've figured that out with the 3 threads that were made and the 75,000 views. Let's move on to something different.......please....
