    I have a bit of a dilema. Last winter, I bought a Christmas tree jersey, sized XL from NHL.com and was going to customize it to a Broduer #29, and pick up the patches through Dorholt. One thing led to another and I was unable to take care of it when I wanted.

    Flash forward to Tuesday. I was thinking of going to the Rock to watch the game yesterday. I was going to wear the jersey, which has never been worn before. I put it on to see how I looked and looked the mirror. The jersey is humongous on me. The sleeves alone make me look like Rocky The Flying Squirrel.

    See, I have been going to the gym and dieting on and off for almost 3 years. When I got the jersey last year, it fit. Since I shed a few lbs, it looks like I'm swimming in it.

    I put on my Edge Broduer jersey and it seems to fit fine. What gives?

    Now, I need to figure out my options. Do I sell the jersey and get a L? Keep it in case I get fat again?

    HAs this ever happened to you guys? If so, what did you do?

    Rumor: Sprint to Get iphone 5 10/7

    in Off-Topic

    Posted

    If this is true, it would tick me off a bit as I upgraded my crapberry in March to an Epic. The Epic is an upgrade, but the 4G network stinks in my apt. It's "sleeping" a lot of the time, I sometimes don't get text messages or pics until hours later and I still roam at times. The Super amoled screen is cool, but you can't see it outside and don't get me started on the battery life.

    Had I known Spint was getting iphone, I would have held off. Now, I'm probably going to have to shell 600.00 for one if I want it, or wait another year until I get my 150.00 upgrade credit.

    Replacing Doc in the Booth?

    As a Yankees fan, I would be on suicide watch if I had to listen to Sterling year round.

    Forget Schiavone, why not good ole' JR? Imagine how good he would be when a fight breaks out, especially since they play Stone Cold's music during?

    I'm still holding out hope they manage to get Gary Throne in.

    For your reference, here's my vintage red/green Authentic CCM Ultrafil Brodeur #29 a jersey contact of mine in Canada had made for me around 5-6 years ago. I provided the jersey and he took care of the rest.

    Can you tell me if the outline of the lettering is green or black? I just want to make sure before sending mine out.

    Thanks,

    What was your first jersey?

    First Devils jersey was those red practice CCM jerseys in the 90's. Loved it, but so did my ex wife and she took it. First Jersey with a name is the Broduer Rebook I wear now.

    First Sports jersey was my Nettles Yankees jersey. I also had a Ken O'Brien old school Jets green jersey as a kid, with the screen print lettering. I still have my Ewing Knicks Champion jersey.

    I was a card dealer with direct accounts from Topps, Upper Deck and Fleer. One reason (of many) i got out was due to rising pack/box/case costs and the reflection it had on my customers as well.

    eBay also had a big impact on everything from dealers to collectors and killed off card shows in the process.

    I kept alot of my hockey (OPC/Topps rookies), vintage baseball, HOF Topps football rookies, etc. when i left the business. They are to pass down to my baby son when he's old enough to enjoy them.

    When i got into game worn stuff, i used the Devils cards as references and for photomatches. I decieded to go and complete a "master set" of every Devils team card set (base cards mostly with some insert sets, a few auto'd rookies) produced from 1982-2011 and although i've slacked recently i would like to continue to complete it down the road. In the process, i've amassed thousands of duplicates from the 80's and 90's mostly with assorted 2000+'s mixed in. If anyone is looking for single cards LMK i'll see if i have it, id be glad to move them on the cheap!

    Is there a checklist somewhere on line that shows every Devils card produced? I tried Beckett, but reading that site is like trying to read Chinese algebra. Not good.

    I collect Devils cards. I try to complete each base set. I also am working on trying to get at least 1 autographed card from any player who has been a Devil, but the player has to be pictured in a Devils jersey. Just picked up autos fron Lever and Verbeek autos from ITG.

    My pride and joy is my Brodeur collection. It's not that large, only over 300 cards, but I love the chase and adding to it. Brodeur is expensive, so I don't buy a lot because of it. I usually make trades or participate in group breaks.

    Another good card forum is tradingcardcentral.com. I've been a part of it for a few years now and there are a great group of guys there.

    I have a Brodeur Rebook jersey. I am in the process of customizing a throwback with Brodeur's #29. I would like to eventually grab a Stevens, Dano and possibly a Lemieux jersey as well.
