Authentic Finds

First off, Sports Authority's clearance sale is now 30%-50% off. I believe it would be a good time to buy licensed merchandise because there is still a good selection of merchandise available. I went yesterday and there weren't any Angels jerseys left. There were still plenty of Ducks, Dodgers, and Chargers licensed gear available.

There are bids to buy some of the stores. We'll see what happens.

Happy St. Patrick's Day. This is a green post.

Good news, I'm updating several old posts with new pics and I'll be done next week. I didn't like how some of them came out. I'm still working on a logo. 

I don't have many green jerseys. I posted about the green Dodgers Spring Training jersey I bought a couple of years ago.

I own a couple New York Jets jerseys.

Chick's Sporting Goods was a California regional retail store. They were going out of business and I bought this for $50 and I regret it.

Okay I wanted a Brett Favre jersey and they didn't have his Packers jersey. The number is heat pressed on the material and the four on the back is starting to fade.

 This is a Tim Tebow Nike Green Limited Jersey that I bought on clearance from NFL Shop. I paid less than $50 for it. I like it because it looks authentic, the numbers aren't heat pressed. and I thought Tebow was a serviceable quarterback.

This is a Jets knitted cap that I bought from Ross awhile ago. It has a black exterior with Jets logo sewn on it. I would have made it all green.

Last but not least.

My dad bought me this Tebow McFarlane figure. I know what your thinking. "McFarlane made a Tebow Jets figure?" "Yes, they did.

Lucky Find

Awhile ago I wrote about the St. Patrick's Day jersey I got at Dodgers Fan Fest. A couple of days ago I found a matching hat for it. I went to Ross again, looking for nothing in particular, I found this:

Dodgers Fan Fest

Last year the Los Angeles Dodgers had their annual Fan Fest. This Fan Fest had meet and greets with players, state of franchise address, and an apparel sale. I picked up two jerseys for forty dollars each, both of them rare.

This is an authentic Dodgers blank road jersey circa 2001. It was made by Rawlings instead of Majestic Athletic, which produces all the MLB jerseys. Notice the white outline around Los Angeles, the Dodgers word mark, and the Rawlings logo on the left sleeve. Another interesting feature is the jock tag is inside the jersey instead of outside like the current Majestic jerseys.

This is a Spring Training jersey issued to Scott Elbert, who used to pitch for them. This is unique because it is green. During St. Patrick's Day several teams don green jerseys such as the Dodgers and the Red Sox.

One last thing, Majestic Athletic is having a clearance sale on their jerseys. http://www.majesticathletic.com/Authentic/l/609. There are many good deals on here.
