Hey 14lalo, I'd stay away from those throwback jerseys at F&S, most are fakes, especially at the booth where they sell DVD movies.Thanks and yeah, i've seen, 1984 Bo Jackson Raiders throwback. Bo was still at Auburn in 1984. M&N is a 1987. But he's into the basketball throwbacks, he bought a couple of Nike Jordan ones that look legit.

I am definitely hoping for the same thing, but I will be pulling for the Dodgers. It seems like I might be outnumbered on this thread though.

Hey Jacob. Since your team lost horribly in the last week of contention, why don't you jump on the Dodger Blue Bandwagon? :D

[JayL0c]

I will never turn to the darkside... I HATE KIRK GIBSON... lol GO HALOS......

Have nt seen you in a while Ernest, hope everything is groovie

[Duckmyster]

I didn't get a chance to go to frank and sons today, didn't get to watch the Dodger game, but i took my son to universal studios so he could finally ride the jurassic park ride.Thank god for the internet on the cell phone :-) I honestly thought that the Dodgers were going to lose when I check my phone and the Dodgers were down 3-0. The bottom of the 9th must have been a hell of an inning, oh well there is always espn highlights. overall a very good day.

Just dropping in to show y'all my Kings sig. Go Dodgers. Go Angels. Let's get the freeway series going already.

Very nice sig. Hey how do you make the text? I want something like that for my sig.

Very cool sig. I need to get PhotoShop. How expensive is it and how easy/hard is it to use?

[EDBSIP]

Dodgers lose 8-3

Angels lose 9-3

on the bright side Angels fans, we lost game 1 of each series in 2002, and look what happened in the end. GO ANGELS !!!

[Duckmyster]

What are the odds that both the Dodgers and Angels would lose by almost similar scores. Well at least the both teams got that beating out of the way and both teams should be pissed off enough to come out with an attitude of payback.

[CoolinLA]

Very cool sig. I need to get PhotoShop. How expensive is it and how easy/hard is it to use?
I use the one we have at work. I just play around with it and do whatever I need. There are some really good tutorial sites if you really want to get into it.

Are you talking about Mark - the canadian guy who always had every card you would need. I used to buy from him when I collected Kariya stuff - he always had the high-end hard to find items. But that I think was more than 4 years ago so it might not be the same guy

NHL Legends: all the Gretzky's (6" and 12")

NFL 10: Moss chase, Tomlinson 2 reg, doublestar Roy Williams and possibly TO

NHL 9: both Datsyuk, Sundin, Sakic, Alfredsson, Rangers Leetch (if there is one), Wings Fedorov (if there is one) and possibly Raycroft and maybe Brodeur

NHL 10: both Lang, Nash (hopefully 3rd jersey chase), Jagr, Thornton, Iginla and St. Louis

Forgive him Lord for he knows not what he says. :D

That's the advantage of full-season fantasy leagues where the highest scoring team...well...they win! The good thing about head-to head is that more teams have a shot overall. If this were a full-season league, I'd be in fifth.

NHL 9:
Not sure yet. Maybe just the Datsyuk (coz its Datsyuk) and the Alfredsson (coz I like the pose).

NHL 10:
Nash (great resemblance on the face, I thought)
Thornton (another great resemblance)

I also want the Heritage 2-pack.

Let's see if I can really limit myself to just those figs...lol.

[tealfan]

Anyone know how to change/edit your team name on Yahoo? I want to do that for one of my NBA fantasy teams.
Try this. Go to your team page. Right below the team name, there should be a link for Edit Team Info. On that page there's a place to edit your team name (and other things).

[J3-M8]

I'll be after:
Gretzky in Kings uni(have to have the great one, now all we're missing is a Michael Jordan)

NFL10-TO2 in Niners gear!!!! LT2, I'll want the chase only if its the blue jersey/blue pants version, or powder blue uni, otherwise I'll just get the reg. Moss2 chase. Maybe Roy Williams and get turned into a Ronnie Lott custom:D .

No more hockey for me, the only way I'll go back, is if I get free tickets, maybe.

BTW, I bought the last Ray Lewis/Portis 2 pack at the TRU in Tustin, I also left a reg Tim Brown, w/mouthpiece and towel. Thats all I saw.

Thanks Joseph. I think I looked everywhere but there. Some little punk in one of my NBA leagues named his team "King Melo" and posted how upset he was that he didn't get online for the draft thus missing out on drafting Melo. So he asked who had him (me.) I told him to send me an offer and he offered me 2 scrubs ranked in the 100s for Melo. I declined and sent him a counter offer of Melo and a bench guy for Peja. He promptly flipped the **** out and now he's been posting all kinds of 3rd grade insults at me and even changed his team name to "King Peja." So after punking him after each post he makes, I decided to change my team name to "King Peja = My ******."

BTW, I bought the last Ray Lewis/Portis 2 pack at the TRU in Tustin, I also left a reg Tim Brown, w/mouthpiece and towel. Thats all I saw.

[tealfan]

LOL Jason. Drama in fantasy basketball, huh?

I forgot to mention that I also want a Gretzky, any Gretzky.

offense wins games...defense wins championships.

words of wisdom for you to ponder. :D

My squad is Best Damn Team.

Jacob and I are the 2 highest scoring teams and we're 2-4. What's up with that?

So who's picking up what from the upcoming lines? Myself, I'm after:

NHL Legends: all the Gretzky's (6" and 12")

NFL 10: Moss chase, Tomlinson 2 reg, doublestar Roy Williams and possibly TO

NHL 9: both Datsyuk, Sundin, Sakic, Alfredsson, Rangers Leetch (if there is one), Wings Fedorov (if there is one) and possibly Raycroft and maybe Brodeur

NHL 10: both Lang, Nash (hopefully 3rd jersey chase), Jagr, Thornton, Iginla and St. Louis

Thanks for the words of wisdom smart guy. ;) I totally agree with that statement though. I was just making a point that it's ironic that we are under .500 having such high point totals, especially since it's a head-to-head league. You would have to think we'd have far better records with point totals like that. For instance, my other 2 teams have either the top score or 2nd overall score and they are 5-1 and 6-0 for the season.

As for Portis/Lewis, Art (denote999) scored he and I a 2pak each, so they are starting to slow pop up. Just keep your eyes peeled. Art only saw 1 case.

[So Cal Fan]

hey wingnut. i agree with your last statment. but, just in case you wanted to know, i will be holding a seminar this weekend. the topic will be: "The Secret to Winning Fantasy Football: Stingy Defense". You are welcome to attend if you want. Bring a friend. There will be a continental breakfast provided so please come and enjoy.

Also, thanks for the update on the Portis/Lewis 2-pack. I will definitely have to start lurking at TRU.

THE YANKEES LOSE !!!

[J3-M8]

Lost in all the Sox/Yanks/Johnny Damon/Pedro's daddy posts, how about former Angel, and one of my all-time favorite Angels Jim Edmonds hitting that walk-off home run? I really hope whoever wins that 'Stros/Cards series goes on to win the World Series.

it's bright and sunny today in SoCal

[jcurry15]

Hey So Cal guys. Just picked up a Portis/Lewis 2-pack at the TRU in Santa Ana. They had 2 left after I grabbed mine.

Oh, I'm GLAD the sun is out today, it's still cold, but at least there is some sun.

[WingNut 25]

Anybody here collect hockey jerseys?
Just Red Wings players. I have (all authentic):

white CCM Yzerman w/ 2002 Cup patch
white Nike McCarty w/ "Believe" & 1998 Cup patch
red Nike Shanahan w/ 1997 Cup patch
red Koho Hull w/ 2002 Cup patch
red Koho Datsyuk (gonna get '02 Cup patch sewn on)
white Nike Draper (gonna get "Believe & '98 Cup patch sewn on)
white CCM Lidstrom (gonna get '02 Cup patch sewn on)

[CoolinLA]

NHL.com has a sale on all jerseys right now. For authentic Red Wings jerseys, they're on sale for $119.99, regular price was $199.99. Customized authentics are $189.99. Don't know if that's a good price or not since I collect replica/semi-pro jerseys with no customization. I'm hoping to post some pictures eventually.

[tealfan]

I've thought about getting a new Sharks jersey. Then again, it's kinda cool to wear my old Friesen #19. He wore that number for all of 11 games or so...lol.

[WingNut 25]

I'll have to pass on that sale for now. I want to find another Nike Wings jersey on ebay (where I've scored all my jerseys) and get it customized with Kirk Maltby and a '97 Cup patch. After that maybe Lang and Zetterberg.

Also, for those interested, and I'm sure that's most of you, Cory (Hulkster) said Dave will have NHL Legends this coming week and NFL 10 the following week.

Thanks Ed, its about time:D

How was Frank's. Jason?

What do you guys think about the new NBA poses.
Can someone say Shaq 2 custom in Orlando Black, and Laker Purple/Gold.
I like the Marion, but the AI looks wierd.

Whats up Jacob??

I love the new Shaq, what a classic Shaq pose. We need that in a Magic retro, more than we do a Laker retro. If they can make a 3-inch Steve Francis, in pinstripe retro(a uniform that he won't wear regularly, I'm sure they can make a Shaq.

Corey Maggette is a dissapointment, reusing a pose that was recently used, oh well I guess thats what we should expect for a Clippers fig.

I don't like the Iverson, maybe TMP should do a few figs in their warmup suit, like SLU did.

[EDBSIP]

Thanks Ed, its about time:D
Sorry Jorge (and Jason & Louie)!

It was a little hard finding time (between filing out side job applications) to mail out 9 boxes with my 2 1/2 year old daughter and a 5 month old son in tow. :p

Whud up bro,

Either way, that Shaq is going to be customized. The lineup is pretty sweet.

Off topic. What kind of digital cam do you have? Im looking to get one, and Im trying to figure out how much to pay and what to look for. I only need it for simple family shots and fig shots, so I can post on the board from time to time.

Thanks

I have a Kodak EasyShare cx6330, 3.1 mega pixels. My boss sold it to me for $50. It cost him $200. I love it, the only trouble I have sometimes is with the lighting/flash indoors as you can see by the pics below. I'm sure there's a way around it, but I haven't figured it out.

See this one of The Rock, looks dark.....

Hey guys in OC, that are WWE fans, I found the new Legends Tag Teams at the Tustin TRU, I bought LOD, but left 1 LOD, 2 Rockers, and 2 Hart Foundations.

I also left a Portis/Lewis 2-pack.

Off the top of my head, either your flash can't manage the distance to your subject (need a brighter one) or you need to point your lens at something darker first. Rock has a bright, white shirt, so it thinks it doesn't need much light. Just my 2 cents.

[JayL0c]

Ask your boss if he has another one... :D

I want to get a digital camera so bad, but I am just worried on spending to much and getting crap, or it just sitting there collecting dust.

Who's going to Wrestlemania at the Staples Center??
Most likely, no, because wrestling has sucked hard lately, that I rarely watch anymore, I know when WM draws near, I might get some tix on ebay. And as stated above, WM16 sucked bad, I was there, and it seamed more like Raw without commercials with no one-on-one matches.

[So Cal Fan]

Thanks to SoCalFan for grabbing me a Kincaid when funds were tight!!


No problem. :D
If someone spots an extra Lewis/Portis 2-pack up in the L.A. area, please let me know. I went to a couple of TRUs and no luck.

what lake is that?

[Gooker1]

What kind of fish is that...and I like the dude in the back LOL

[WingNut 25]

what lake is that?
It's Irvine Lake in Orange County. My buddy Kevin found out about it last year in Western Outdoor News so he went fishing there a few times and convinced us to try it out. They just dumped 40,000 pounds of trout into the lake in the last 2 weeks!

What kind of fish is that...and I like the dude in the back LOL
It's a rainbow trout.

[Gooker1]

That's sweet! Looked like a great day too!

I thought the dam looked familiar. I haven't been to Irvine in 10 years!! Used to fish there all the time

If you go by the TRU anytime soon can you pick them up for me if there still there?

[Duckmyster]

First of all I want to thank Jorge for the Jason Richardson card he got for me.
Second have you guys heard about the Dodgers trade rumor of Shawn Green for the Mets Mike Piazza or Shawn Green, Yhency Brazoban and cash for Jason Kendall.
If I had to do a trade I would probably do the Piazza for Green the second one is to steep.

Awesome trailer!! Just too short (damn teaser.) That first glimpse of Vader on the table is breathtaking. How evil does Anakin look throughout? This movie is gonna rock. Can't wait for the next trailer (think I heard Dec/Jan.) so we can see a shot of Grievous.

And also notice when Yoda, pulls out his lightsaber, probably confronting Palpatine, theres a red guard laying there, probably dead.LOL

[WingNut 25]

Someone on JediDefender.com mentioned seeing the dead Royal Guard. That'll rock to see Yoda cutting through those guys. 'Bout time they got some action since the only shot of them in action in ROTJ was cut.
