RBI Memorabilia Pics

One more SI cover.  I can't tell what's funnier about this, his goofy grin or the remarkably accurate caption.

Here's a classic SI cover: Grich and DeCinces jumping for an extremely high high-five.  Go Angels!

They skied above the 6 inch mark.

I picked up some more RBI memorabilia for about $8 last Sunday.

I got:

John Franco autograph
Ellis "Tim" Burks game used jersey card
Tony Gwynn game used bat card
Bill Buckner game used bat card

When/if I ever get access to a scanner, I'll put up a pic

How is he hitting .344?

He fucking scares the ball into the outfield.

Jeez, he's F-ugly!

I picked this up a few weeks ago at an antique store on my birthday trip to Bakersfield. It's a set of four punch out paper masks from the early 1990s (like you would get on the back of a box of cereal, where you punch out the eyes and mouth and string the rubber band through it to put it on your head). There were different series, but this was the only one with all four players being RBIers. And besides, who wouldn't want to go as hjose canseco or Drugs for Halloween this year.

(Note: I haven't scanned in the masks yet, so this is a picture of it from another site.)

I'm crazy cocaine addict baseball player head. . . . just because I'm addicted to cocaine doesn't mean I don't like the sweet taste of delicious candy. . .  . .so please, if you would, gimme some god damned candy!

I stumbled across what may be the two most enviable pieces of RBI memorabilia ever.  I forgot that I had them.  Unfortunately, no pics 

1)  A circa 1987 Glenn Davis temporary tatoo

2)  A sheet of 1984 "rub ons" (similar to iron ons, but scratched onto paper with a coin) that has Tom Brnsky, Darryl Strwby, and Pete Coke Head from the NL all-stars

...got this RBI gem from the wife for our 2nd anniversary this past week...

she did a fine job of forging donnie baseball's name on that $3 hat

Congrats on the 2 years.

Actually, it came with a certificate of authentication from donmattingly.com.

I got an Alan Trammel autograph on Ebay, I think I got scammed.

[JoeDirt]

i posted two pix of my alan trammell autographs that i think are legit (got as a kid), if you wanna compare...

[RedBarron]

Damn.

I like Mattingly and think he deserves the HOF, but the dude is fucking proud of his autographed stuff.


50 bucks for a photo?

125 for a hat?

75 for a ball?


Wowzers.

I was joking, with my intentional misspelling of Trammel, I figure it's a scam if the autograph is spelled wrong.

I get it, I get jokes.

[RedBarron]

i tried to mispell the name (for humorous purposes). . . . hope i didn't throw anyone off.

allenn trrammell is great

[JoeDirt]

I noticed both and assumed it was for my benefit.  Ult, I thought you really had the autographs but mispelled so I'd comment.  You clever little bitch.

So when you wear the Josie mask, you have the corner of Mattingly's hat on your chin?  Pervert.

That Angels SI cover is awesome. Reminds me of a touchdown celebration in Tecmo Bowl.
