Paul posted this in the ticker on December 15th showing the special Christmas patch, yet for some reason the Cavs aren’t wearing it tonight (neither are the Wizards)

Craig Sager said that the Cavs wanted to wear the blue alts instead. He had the white home Cavs jersey with the snowflake that they’re not wearing.

i also noticed the cavs and the wixards werent wearing their christmas day jerseys with the snow patch. Craig Sager actually said it was because LeBron was debuting his new shoe and the blue alts looked better with it than with the home whites. heres the shoe:

what a conceited prick LeBron is. He makes both teams wear different jerseys (and skip out on wearing jerseys that were specially made just for that game) just because he is debuting a new shoe. nice.

I know that Sager said that, but the picture Paul posted was the Cavs blue uni with the snow flake, so your whole Lebron’s a prick rant doesn’t hold any water

I didn’t watch NBA yesterday (except for a glimpse of the red-green Blazers-Mavs), did ANYONE wear the snowflake patch?

I got a 1969 Sports Illustrated featuring Ted Williams in Senators garb on the front cover (photos inside are amazing), and a Washington Federals pennant. There was a book under the tree for my father that I will be scanning some photos from to show our leader in hopes he will nudge the rest of the astute UWers into purchasing it.

Merry Holidays to all.

That the cover with Williams in the red hat with the navy pinstripe jersey? One of those spring training combos (new hat with last year’s jerseys and pants). Too bad, I thought it looked better than the plain whites they actually wore when the season opened.

Here you go, DIY a hat…

or a sweatshirt…

Always loved that logo.

I didn’t get any uni-related gifts as far as clothing is concerned but I did get the Steelers Super Bowl DVD set with the full length broadcasts of all five games.

Paul, I know you’re probably off the grid today, but I would totally be willing to disect these DVDs in a similar manner to what I did with my 1979 World Series discs earlier this year, doing screen captures and writing a guest post if you like.

Merry Holidays to all.

everyone,

i got a mets 5950 from my three little brothers (all under the age of 18). wanna guess which one they got me? (hint: they just don’t “get it”.)

happy holidays to everyone!

Be sure to say “it’s the wrong size” when you switch it for a blue one.
I scored a Olympique de Marseille soccer jersey. Looks like this. (Yes, it’s a year old, but it was a $20 Burlington Coat Factory find, and it’s a first-rate Adidas Clima-Cool top. Nice colors, I’m more than happy.)

If you’re going for an O’M kit, it HAS to be this one:

Pure gold.

Agreed, the argyles are gorgeous, and I love soccer jerseys with collars, but I have what I have, and I’m OK with that.

Good morning. Merry Christmas.

I miss the Blue-Gray Game. At least there was always ONE football game on Christmas Day.

Okay…so who got what from Santa?

Ricko,

I’m still Jonesing without my Christmas Football ….

Why doesn’t someone just run reruns of classic NFL games, not just the championships but let’s say 1960’s games that were competitive or featuring competitive teams.

I’m in New Orleans and I would love to see a full game broadcast from the Saints early years – despite their not often being competitive.

How about some 1960’s to mid 1970’s games featuring contenders, or even good playoff games?

Even the reruns of “This Week in the NFL” would suffice. I never see them anymore, but 4-5 years ago they were on often.

I remember one Saturday 3 years ago when I saw a Notre Dame year end wrap-up show from 1974 with Rusty Lisch QBing the Domers before Joe Montana took over.

TV Sports Gods – GIVE US SOMETHING !!!!

Particularly something that doesn’t involve Steve Marriucci, Deon Sanders and Rich Eisen every 5 minutes.
