Cleveland Browns @ Baltimore Ravens December 28th, 2014

I went to the final home game of the football season.  With the 20-10 comeback win and a little help by the Chase Daniel led Chiefs the Ravens secured the final playoff spot the 6th seed in the AFC and will travel to either Cincy or Pittsburgh so no mystery with the opponent since the both divison foes.

Joe Flacco

I got this Super Bowl XLVII ball signed by Joe Flacco prior to the last home game vs. the Jacksonville Jaguars on December 14th, 2014.  I was stopped at the gate and told I could not bring it into the stadium reason being that a mini football is a projectile and it may hurt someone if thrown onto the field go figure.  So I gave it to a friend that was down for the pre-game autos but going home so was just able to get it from him today.

Joe Flacco signed Super Bowl XLVII mini logo ball.

Jim Boeheim

I only received one gift that was sports memorabilia related, but it was a great one!  My son has just finished his first semester at Syracuse University and my present from him was Jim Boeheim's new book "Bleeding Orange" which he was able to get signed for me at a book signing in the school bookstore.  This was a need for my Basketball Hall of Fame collection since he was inducted in 2005.  Below is the cover and the inside page signed to me, NICE!   Merry Christmas and Happy Holiday to all.

I went this morning to the tent sale at VF Outlet with special guest signer Jamie Moyer who was there from 10am to noon.  This is one of the signing were they provide the item and as usual it was 8x10.  I was able to get 3 of them as the line wasn't to long I went through 3 times, One is already spoken for in a trade and the other I had Jamie add the Inscription "2008 W.S. Champs".  Also, with a $25 purchase they were giving out unsigned 8x10 of the Eagles Nick Foles so I got one of those.

Free Shorts

A couple months ago I won an autographed card of Greg Smith on Ebay for a total of 71 cents. The guy I bought it from was moving and having a baby and he was looking for the card.  I forgot about it then contacted him he said he couldn't find it and would send me something else signed so in the mail today I get this 2011 Hit Cecil Shorts III # A69 and a $1. So in total I'm ok with this purchase which adds up to a free Shorts card and 29 cents in my pocket! lol not bad for the wait.

Cecil Shorts III Autographed 2011 Hit # A69

Three Purchased Ravens

I purchased these three Ravens cards off of ebay from three separate sellers the total cost shipped was $7.40. Two are current and one is a former Raven but the 2 current I haven't been able to get yet in person with Dominique Franks just signing after the season started and Aaron Ross being put on Injured Reserve before the season started figured these were cheap enough to add to the Raven collection the 3rd is Ryan McBean he's been gone a couple years, I did get him in person but the card will fit better in my book then the 8x10 picture I took of him.
