There is a lot going on right now.. to say the least. We are two Perfect Games into one baseball season (should be three - #imjustsaying) , Griffey Jr. just announced his retirement, Arod is closing in on 600 hr's, Stanley Cup Finals and NBA Finals. The prevailing theme of today, due to a botched call is, The Perfect Game. The Perfect Game is such an incredible feat. While we have a Roy Halladay signing coming up soon I have been working the PG theme for the past few weeks. After the David Cone/David Wells/Don Larsen appearance we finally have a limited number of PG Battery Mates photos back in stock. This has been one of our best sellers over the past year and is an absolute must have for any baseball collector. It is absolutely daunting that there have only been 20 in the history of Major League Baseball. That is what makes the whole Larsen mystique so incredible. We are so desensitized to him (being that Don is a friend and we work so often together) but it truly is the greatest performance in baseball history.. The guy pitched a Perfect Game in the World Series. Moral of the story is that this PG product will never go stale and as every year goes by the legend of Larsen will grow.


In the weeks to come I feel that the Arod theme will begin to pick up steam. He is within striking distance of that vaunted 600th. Be on the lookout for some great deals on our Arod staple pieces as well as new ones to be introduced as he approaches this special milestone. We already boast some of the most unique Rodriguez pieces around and our creative juices are already flowing in anticipation of 600... Stay tuned.

Having said that- there is a huge Game 1 between the Lakers and Celtics tonight. The blog faithful know of my affiliation with LA. They have been my team pre #BarMitzvah and have followed them from Magic to Vlade to Van Exel to Peeler to Shaq to Kobe to Fisher .. to Artest .. you get the idea. We offer some great Celtics and Lakers product on this very site (both vintage and current).. So be sure to look around. Bottom line is I am fired up for this series. It is the greatest rivalry in sports (sorry Yankees/Red Sox) and this gives the Lakers a shot at redemption for the pain of two years ago. I'm feeling confident and am counting the hours till tip-off.

Lakers in 6 , #24 Finals MVP.. Approaching MJ status - Redemption

Thank you and enjoy the game
