Another Lakers Jacket

A couple of months ago, I bought a Lakers jacket from Burlington that I was okay with wearing. It really wasn't my style but it was functional. A couple of days into the new year I ended up with a better one.

Lakers Big and Tall Men's Reflective Track Jacket

I have a bunch of things to post before the year ends. I bought a jersey from a store online and I am the top bid on an auction on eBay. I also have a bunch of shirts to post on here.

I may as well start with this:

Lakers Basketball Shorts

I don't wear basketball shorts that often, so I don't buy them. I went to Ross a few days ago and these stuck out at me: 

Lakers Swingman Jersey

After rejecting the Clippers jersey, I went to Burlington Coat Factory for the first time in many weeks. I was thrilled with all the new items they had in stock. They had a lot of Lakers jerseys in stock and I bought this:

Sports Authority Update and Burlington Coat Factory Finds

I visited the Sports Authority at Ontario Mills.

Miscellaneous

I have a few quick items to write about this week.

I bought this Pittsburgh Pirates MLB Cooperstown 59FIFTY Cap at Ross for $10. It isn't an official on field cap but it does match my Pirates Road Jersey. Ross has a good cap selection. The trouble is finding your team and size. I got lucky again.


I started an Instagram account: https://www.instagram.com/sportsfinds/. As I go around to different places, I'll post on there the deals I find. I'll save so much money because I won't have to buy as much. This blog will still updated regularly. 



Tonight is a big night in sports. The NHL playoffs start with three games in the opening round. The Golden State Warriors will go for win number 73. The 1995-96 Chicago Bulls won 72 games and no one ever thought any team would get that close to perfection. Can the Warriors make history tonight?

This is also Kobe Bryant's last game in the NBA. I bought one Bryant jersey awhile ago, which was my first post on here. 

The Lakers sent out an email with all the commemorative merchandise they're selling for his retirement. 

is all I could think while looking at some of the items.

Fathead Find

On a recent trip to Ross, I found a Lakers Steve Nash Fathead. Fatheads are decals you can put on many different kinds of surfaces. The company has licenses with the big four sports leagues.When I go to Ross, they have different ones marked down. In the past I have bought a Padres logo and Philip Rivers Fatheads.

Nash had a brief stint with the Lakers till age and injuries caught up with him and he retired. It came with sticker of him dribbling and several Lakers logos. I paid eight dollars for it and it's great value if you like Lakers or Steve Nash.

Kobe Bryant Jersey

The purpose of this blog is to share with you the audience the various collections of sports memorabilia I have acquired of the years.  I have been into professional sports for the last decade which has led to me buying or receiving some interesting things over the years. On occasion, I will point out where I got such items. If you are patient and lucky enough, you can get affordable team apparel if you where to look.

Around two weeks ago, I bought this Kobe Bryant jersey for twenty bucks at Burlington Coat Factory. While it isn't in the Lakers colors, I think the black camouflage colors with the yellow outline numbers are cool looking.  It is official licensed with NBA logo in the back and Lakers logo in the front. The numbers aren't screen printed but ironed on. I thought it was a good purchase considering when Kobe retires, it will be hard to get a jersey like this.

I buy unique jerseys and other licensed apparel and this blog will highlight these items.
