Dodgers 2004 Headshots

Victorino, Franklin Gutierrez, Edwin Jackson, James McDonald.

Very young versions of Billingsley, Kemp, Loney and Russell Martin.

And this...

This isn't the board you're looking for.

Jim McMahon as a Viking.

..

I had the newspaper with that picture back in 1994!

Behind McMahon, I believe, is TE Steve Jordan...wearing Reebok Pumps!

Most notable moment of Steve Jordan's career:

Not the half-dozen Pro Bowls and fathering a future first-rounder?

Here is a real picture of Tebow in practice today with his new helmet. I love this picture. Perfect timing with the guys behind him.

Caption - Brady: "Really? We really sign him?" McDaniels: "Yep, that's my guy. He's here to replace you." 'laughs'.

What is this no jersey number stuff? Have the pats done this in the past?

Tebow will look good in 5...doubt if he beats out Pizzaface Mallett but should earn a roster spot if he's gained a bit of humility and is willing to play additional positions. If so, I can't think of a better place for him.

With regards to Lofton, all of his Astros cards have him in short-sleeves. I can't find and don't remember anything but long sleeves after he came to cleveland, growing up with those teams.

Though he did do short sleeves for rock n jock softball. I assume that doesn't count.

EDIT: also found a 1994 spring training shot with vizquel in the cleveland stadium-era home set. They switched for the regular season, but I didn't recall the team ever wearing non-bp tops during spring training.

This has probably been brought up, but Jordan wore 35 as a Scorpion in The 1994 Arizona Fall League.

Rangers reliever Joe Nathan posing as Tony Romo after losing a bet.

This is the most ridiculous thing I've seen since a Miami fan dressed in full uniform (in the stands) a few years ago. Kudos if someone has a photo.

Phil Mickelson, Toledo Mud Hens

Lefty is a Righty?!?

As a matter of fact, yes. He's a righty whom golfs left.

A decent amount of athletes are certain-hand dominant only in their given sport. I know Sabathia writes right-handed.

Oh and another thing:

Even when you buy an authentic from an official seller- you're still not getting a legit on-field jersey. They don't have the draw-string sleeves or anything like that. So you're kind of getting duped anyway in to thinking you're getting the real deal when you aren't.

Exactly. I have a hard time believing that an "authentic" is really worth the $300 price tag if it isn't even on the field. You can't tell me that a real player's jersey costs more. If so it would cost an astounding amount to dress a football team.

Not $300, but gamers definitely cost more than authentics to produce. One big reason is that there's more overall material used, ever seen the length of football jerseys? I have a 42 (M) that runs almost to my knees. The differences in striping or how the numeral/nameplate is affixed is also of a higher quality in gamers. This doesn't even get into the new designs of Pro Combat or TechFit where the on-field jerseys have 'advanced' material. I know most of that is marketing BS, but not all.

-Eddie Murray with the Angels.

I'm probably wrong, but isn't that his stint with Cleveland?

Well that is what I get for trusting captions on pictures.

Havent' we all done that once or twice?

To be fair, Murray only wore that Cleveland uniform for about a month in in Spring Training '94 before they unveiled their script jerseys in April.
