#2
Dodgers HOFers: Tommy Lasorda, Duke Snider, Don Sutton, Jim Bunning.

PAU GASOL, RICK FOX, DEREK FISHER, ARTEST, KOBE
BRYANT? -
#5
PHIL JACKSON, JERRY WEST
-
#6
Georges St-Pierre, Liddell, Tito Ortiz, BJ Penn, Randy Couture? What about Clayton Kershaw or Manny Ramirez? Hopefully the Gasol signing can get finalized!
-
#7
Erick Aybar, because we can get him cheap and he still has potential to become a lot better.
-
#8
Is it possible to get Fisher back? I didn't get a chance last time because he sold out too quick
-
#9
Bring some angels and dodger players!
-
#10
Would Albert Pujols be unfeasible? I'm sure he'll be great in the aftermarket and I wouldn't have a problem spending a few hundred for his signature! Same goes for Kareem, Shaq, Peyton Manning, Ken Griffey Jr, and AROD!
-
#11
I'd like to see Manny Pacquiao and Evan Longoria.
-
#12
Michael Jordan
-
#13
How about any dodgers or angels opponents. When in town... off season it should be easier to get local players dodgers/angels...
-
#14
How about Larry Walker
-
#15
Phil Jackson. Please
No, really..... Phil :)
Dont even need a reason. -
#16
Win or lose on Thursday bring Fisher back in. Artest would be great too with that 0.6 shot against the SUNS. Is there anyway that Farmar or The Machine can appear after the championship parade?? Photos for kids as always!!! GO UD RETAIL AND SPORTS INTEGRITY!!!!!! LAKERS 2010 CHAMPS!!!

#34
Since José Canseco came for a signing how about few weeks ago how about getting the other Bash Brother Mark McGwire. Also I'm a Laker fan myself but Clippers are from LA too Bryon Davis or Blake Griffin.
-
#35
As we could see people keep giving u a list that u already said u cant bring in...Why dont u give us a list of people that u r thinking about bringing in and we give u our opinion.We would love Chavez he is a big name especially in southern california in a Mexican comunity...Also what about Kareem we need him, thanks a lot.
-
#36
hey do a parlay like dj benga morrison sasha all at the same time
-
#37
Please bring in Rick Fox
-
#38
Hi all....wanted to touch base. We are working on Ron Artest for a possible August date. Just waiting to hear back from him. We will attempt to get some others like Sasha, Odom, Brown, maybe walton.
How about Steve Blake, The Lakers latest addition? -
#39
yea bring steve in
what about pau gasol -
#40
Yes Sasha, Odom, Brown and definitely Walton. I will be there for all of this. Get Artest too and Gasol. Thats a must! Any other Lakers too.
-
#41
I'd love Sasha, Walton, and Blake!!!!!!!!!1 They're ones I don't currently have.

#42

-
#46
I will be at the Farmar signing tommorow! Lets represent Laker Fans! Bob/Joe can we get more Lakers, the ones you listed are great, Bynum, Rambis, Fisher, The Machine, Artest, Mbenga, Fox, Shaw, etc. Any news on the Gasol signing? If there is anyway we could see baseball players like Torii Hunter, Andre Eithier, or Coach Mattingly. I hope all Laker fans know that this is the only venue that brings us Lakers signings continuously. Lets keep in rolling for UD and Sports integrity. Lakers 2010 Champions, 3-peat on the way!
-
#47
Would like to see Pau Gasol, Sasha, Artest,
-
#48
I think any of the Lakers are good. Not a fan of Farmar so I sat out.
Bring on some Dodgers Joe/Bob! -
#49
myb in a box of hockey u can put a team card in with the whole team augograh "like a jumbo card"
@ducktape1 "twitter" -
#50
Kerhaw, Loney, Broxton, Billingsley, Martin, Kirk Gibson, Tommy Lasorda, Fernando Valenzuela, Orel hershiser

#51
LAKER SIGNINGS
i would 100% go to any of these: Kareem, Magic, West, Goodrich, Fox, Nick Van Exel, Eddie Jones, Michael Cooper, or any 09-10 laker
-
#52
Kareem Abdul Jabbar, Phil Jackson, Michael Jordan, Pau Gasol, Jerry West please!
-
#53
Any interest in the following:
MEAN JOE GREENE
JIM BROWN -
#54
Hi All.....as I always try to keep it real with you guys/gals, I am very close to getting a deal with Artest for Aug 28. Not confirmed yet but should know something early next week. If it happens, there will be inscriptions offered!
Stay Tuned! -
#55
Is it possible to maybe get some NHL stars in there (more likely from the Anaheim Ducks or the L.A. Kings)? But yeah, I agree with what someone else said, would be really cool to get Evan Longoria in there since he's practically from the area originally.
-
#56
Aaron Rodgers - I think he lives in San Diego during the offseason; Brandon Jennings (from Compton; Blake Griffin (again) - I missed his signing last time. And of course -- Kobe!
-
#57
I would like to see Phillip Rivers. I also like the idea of Jim Brown and Mean Joe Green. What about Tori Hunter, Joe Namath, or some Dodgers?
-
#58
Hi all - just wanted to touch base. Having an issue with Artest but working on it. If it doesnt pan out looking to do James Worthy and maybe guys like J Brown, Gale Sayers, Paul Hornung.....what are your thoughts on these Hall of Famers/Heisman Winner?
Namath and KOBE are not feasible as well as Jordan, Phil Jackson and West etc. Id love to but not feasible. -
#59
Tommy Lasorda and Vin Scully
-
#60
yea big game james is good....
no word on gasol bring fisher back
goodrich
rick fox
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar
Elgin Baylor
-
#61
I would definitely go to a James Worthy signing. I missed the last one so I've been waiting for another one to happen. I would go to Gale Sayers as well.
-
#62
Not interested in football hofer probably would be expensive just want lakers dodgers and angels work it out with artest last signing at ud was packed
-
#63
James sounds great! Agree with autoseeker, get the artest thing done, for sure it would sell out
-
#64
kareem, James Worthy, Jerry West, Andre Eithier KOBE!!!
-
#65
Bring some USC Players:
Matt Barkley, Matt Leinart, Mike Garrett, Carson Palmer. LAKERS: Derek Fisher with inscriptions, Ron Artest, Kareem, Michael Cooper, Kurt Rambis, Byron Scott, DODGERS: Fernando Valenzuela, Orel Hershiser, Sandy Koufax, Manny Ramirez, Nomar Garciaparra -
#66
Bring Big Game James, I'll be there! Any word on Artest or Gasol? ANY LUCK WITH RICK FOX AT ALL?
-
#67
I would love to get sasha, odom, fisher, bynum, from the lakers. Tori hunter, joe torre, and some past lakers like worthy, cooper, kareem if we can.
-
#68
Joe bring some HOF Raiders
Raiders: Fred Biletnikoff, Ted Hendricks, Dave Casper, John Madden, Jerry Rice -
#69
How about you go for the big boys and bring in big stars such as Pac-Man, J.M. Marquez, Pujols, Kareem, St-Pierre, Asomugha, and maybe some Angels and Dodgers!!! I know you're trying and I/we appreciate it, but please, some big stars after all this is SoCal!
-
#70
Is it possible or out of the question to bring in players such as John Elway, Joe Montana, Dan Marino, Troy Aikman, Magic Johnson, Kareem, Howie Long, Kirk Gibson, Tori Hunter, Jarred Weaver, Jim Plunkett, Steve Young, Jerry Rice, or Randy Moss?
-
#71
Hey Joe or Bob,
Any news on Ron Artest or Pau Gasol? Or any upcoming signings this month? -
#72
For baseball....Evan Longoria or Jared Weaver.
and basketball....Dwyane Wade or Chris Paul. -
#73
HI all and hope all is well. Here is a long reply to address some of the above posts....
Ryan - working on both but nothing yet. The minute I have news I will post - Thanks for your interest.
Luke - to be upfront, those players will most like never happen for many reasons.
Eduardo - Im concerned about football players there in HB. I cant bring in some of these guys and have small amounts of people show up. That would be detrimental like the Warren Sapp. Im just not sure its a place to bring in football players - Anyone have a different opinion??
- We WILL DO JAMES WORTHY THIS YEAR FOR SURE
- Working on Artest, Jim Brown, Pau Gasol
- RICK FOX is not interested as well as Jerry West
- kobe is impossible he is under contract with panini
-Koufax, Manny Ramirez not possible as well as others like elway etc -
#74
Like Luke and Eduardo, I prefer football players. Interested in Rams players from the 70's on. Plunkett would be great, Faulk, Warner, Bruce. There's still a large following for the rams in SoCal, would love to see a show like that, even a Ram Raider Show.
-
#75
All hope is on Ron Ron and Pau. I know last time I was in, Ron Ron was not looking good.
I think football is viable in HB but it needs to be top flight guys, like Drew Brees/Montana/Rice/Emmitt Smith plenty of HOFers hitting the auto circuit. Not Warren Sapp who has no ties to the area that nobody cares about. A season or two in Oakland doesn't make him a local guy.
Costly examples, I know, but I am STILL of the opinion that the premium market especially in OC is alive and well if premium athletes are willing to do public/private signings. Don't be scared to do a premium signing. Worst case scenario, the inventory gets sent to the local market where it will sell.
I'd still personally like to see more NBA. With All Star Weekend in LA this season, I am hoping for big things from you guys. -
#76
i went to the sapp signing, and would go again for other raider greats
-
#77
It's also about timing. Until this last year I would drop about 2,000 a year on Shows. I just bought a house this year so all my money went towards furnishing it.
It's been said that Shows do not do well in SoCal because people refuse to spend the money. Most successful shows are in the east, The exception to this is the GTSM Shows in San Jose, they do pretty good and have really brought in some top names. If the players are good enough, people will attend the shows and drop the coin. I missed Sapp, and would have happily paid his $100.00 plus for a jersey and Helmet signature. I know he's not local, but he's a HOFer and these are the guys I try to get.
Perhaps if you can draft a list of players you can get then we can voice our opinion on who we would most like to see. -
#78
I agree with Humberto. We have money and are willing to spend it, but if you keep bringing in players just because they are willing to do a signing then you get a weak turn out. Hall of Fame Sports is doing Magic Johnson and they are local why can't you bring in SUPERSTARS? I love the Pau Gasol idea, but that's all it is so far!
-
#79
Sports Integrity and The UD STORE are doing a great job. Hall of Fame Sports is cool, but the UD Store and Sports Integrity have brought players that we have mentioned, as well as others. But us autograph junkies are well taken care of by these guys and we should appreciate their efforts. When was the last time that Hall of fame sports asked anyone who they would like to appear for signings? Guys any update on Gasol? Are Brian Shaw, Derek Fisher, The Machine, Steve Blake, Matt Barnes, Artest, or Michael Cooper available? Keep it going guys!!!!!!
-
#80
Magiclaker, read this! HOF Sports has brought Barry Sanders, Joe Montana, Reggie Bush, Magic Johnson, Reggie Jackson, Kemp, Billingsley, Gagne, Kirk Gibson, Leinart, Marcus Allen, Jerry Rice, and Steve Young just to name a few! I'm just saying if they can do it then why can't Sports Integrity? UD also should have plenty of resources, why can't they? Money is tight right now, but I'm willing to spend a couple of hundred, I just want top talent for top dollar. After all I'm the customer right? I agree, UD and SI are doing a great job, but lately we've been talking about the same amateur players over and over!!!
-
#81
Any chance for some hockey players?
-
#82
Sergio, I understand what you are saying. I know Chris Weber from HOF sports and he is a great guy that brings in many big names and stars. But, he has had relationships with these players for years, as well as being a savvy businessman. Sports Integrity has written in this blog many times why some players are not available. Money, resale ability, and the overall cost of them paying the player to sign and show up have to be considered. Just because we want to spend top dollar, does not translate into profits for Sports Integrity or the UD Store, hence the ability of a player to show up or not. Besides, many people will balk when asked to spend on big names. You and I would love Joe Montana or Brett Favre to show, and drop the hundreds to get their ink, but the majority of collectors would balk. Sad for us but its true, business dictates who shows up. Looking at sports integrity they have signings elsewhere with other big names, but it boils down to profitability and resale of the athletes autographs. Also, many of these big names are exclusives to HOF sports or GTSM, MAB sports etc. Deals have to be made for them to show. But if sports integrity can bring them I am game to pay for the autographs just like you Sergio.
-
#83
what about byron scott, jamaal wilkes, michael cooper, pat riley, norm nixon, kurt rambis, brian shaw, gary payton, karl malone,
-
#84
how about vlade divac??? i'm sure he'll be interested in raising $$$ for his charity. make it HAPPEN ud or si! please!!!!
-
#85
How about bringing in the four newest Lakers? You could do one signing with Ebanks and Caracter and another one with Blake and Barnes.
-
#86
Hey all hope all is well. Just touching base. Tried to get Jabbar but it didnt work out at UD. Ill see if we can work something else out. Still no luck on Artest. Im trying to locate Gail Goodrich and Worthy will work out at some point.
Any thoughts on Mr Hockey Gordie Howe? I can get this completed but ticket prices will be approx $100 on flats and $200 on Large Items.....any feedback?
-
#87
Any chance we can get Torii Hunter? In Orange County, Angels country would definitely show up for Troy Glaus. UD store/Sports Integrity can we get Troy Glaus? Just wondering because I have never actually seen him do a signing in recent memory. Gordie Howe would be great, he had a decent showing at HOF Sports a few years back. Gordie Howe very nice guy, and classy individual, would not mind seeing him. Also is there anyway we can get Eric Gordon of the Clippers, Norm Nixon, Rambis, Scott, Drexler, or Trevor Ariza? As always thank guys for hearing our requests.
-
#88
yes kareem would be nice even if it isnt at upper deck.. maybe you can get him at a different location in LA?? any of the new lakers would be great... barnes, blake ebanks, caracter... old lakers always... byron scott, jamaal wilkes, rambis, michael cooper... gail goodrich, worthy, pat riley, norm nixon... let me know if any of them are feasable???
-
#89
not intrested in hockey i wont attend
-
#90
ya please try on Jabbar..Goodrich would be great....
-
#91
I don't claim to know the in's and out's of this business. I'm sure none of us are being negative in what we post, but as I stated in an earlier post I prefer Football Players. I know that networking and established relationships are the key to obtaining alot of these players and as stated, the ability to resell the players items on the secondary market. I'll just continue to monitor this page to see when NFL Players make an appearance at this location, and hopefully that will be soon. In the meantime, I think it's great to see that you listen to our suggestions, and are doing what you can to get these guys to appear........now get some Rams Players in here!
-
#92
Im 50/50 on Gordie. If you can get any currect Ducks or Kings I will be there
-
#93
Have to bring in Lakers....
-
#94
GET KAREEM! And torii! Hopefully pau works out!
-
#95
DERRICK "POOHDINI" ROSE
-
#96
JERRY WEST!
-
#97
Bobby Orr and Michael Jordan.
-
#98
You said Jerry West was not feaseable, WHY??? CSA is having him in their Oct. show! You guys are just amateurs compared to the big boys. You try to appeal to us by creating this blog, but have no intentions of acting on our desires! All you got for us is excuses and a bunch of C- players period! What a joke you guys are. I will stick to GTSM, HOF Sports, and Tristar productions!!!!!
-
#99
I saw the same thing with Jerry West and CSA. But, I think it is because CSA is able to bring a bunch of dealers together at the show, so they are able to split the large appearance fee. With a single store appearance at Upper Deck, there is no doubt they would never recover the appearance fee from the public signing alone, and would probably take years to sell through the extra inventory they would have to take on, just to break even. At the same time, with the Upper Deck brand name, we collectors do expect the UD name to be able to get the bigger names to make store appearances. Seems like the local autograph shops in San Diego have brought in bigger names than Upper Deck over the past few years...Joe Montana, LaDanian Tomlinson, Tony Gwynn, Joe Frazier, Brandon Jennings, Philip Rivers, Jake Peavy, etc. But it is a matter of opinion.
-
#100
Right on Rafael! You are the man! amateurs is a great way to describe these people! what's next... DJ Mbenga or Keith Closs..get some real A list players!
-
#101
Hey rafael he never said jerry west wasn't feaseable, he said he wasn't interested. Shows like csa and hof sports have built relationships with these players. Besides this was meant to be a post on who we would want to see @ the ud store not to hear u cry. U want jerry west, do mail order like everyone else.
-
#102
Hey Leo do your research before posting!!! "Namath and KOBE are not feasible as well as Jordan, Phil Jackson and West etc. Id love to but not feasible." POST#58 Isn't it implied?
-
#103
Hey guys (Sports Integrity and UD) I tried to get Derek Fisher's autograph last weekend at Cerritos Kia and it was a nightmare. My children were so disappointed. Fisher arrived late, he signed for many people that were cutting in line, and then he announced he would sign only his own 5x7 photo then signed anything towards the end. Suffice it to say that the only way I am going to get Fisher's autograph is from you guys. To see the disappointed children, families who drove from Santa Clarita, San Diego, and Fontana, just to be turned away and then the sheriff's dept. was called in to keep the hundreds of people in order after he left. What a mess. With that being said, can you reply to me and let me know what is in the works as far as the Lakers? Being a true Lakers fan and a fan of the setup at the UD store I have always supported and spoken highly of your business practices. I know lately, that many fans on this site have expressed their negative opinions (which respectfully, is their right and opinion) and we have seen much less communication than in the past. Many people that frequent this site have not experienced what is like to be turned away from a signing that they woke up early at 5:00 am to hopefully get lucky, but to be treated like crap when you show up and and have the sheriff called to control you and your adoring children, who just want to support their team and show their elementary school class a show and tell autograph of a Laker. Please do not be waivered by the opinions of a minority number of fans. Many fans like myself and many other appreciate your efforts and wish you the best. With that being said, are there any Lakers coming any time soon? Possibly any Angels like Vladimir Guerrero, Torii Hunter, or Troy Glaus? Any word on Pau Gasol or Artest? Bob x 2 as always any photos with the kids will be greatly appreciated!! The Southland is hungry for anything Lakers right now, make it happen and watch the comments on here change.

#104
Rafael please read post 73 which I believe is a more current post than 58... u do ur research. And I completely agree with u magiclaker. Keep up the good work ud staff and si.
-
#105
Well Rafael, if you think they are amateurs and are disappointed with who they can and cannot get, then either figure out how to get those players yourself, or just move on and stop bad mouthing Sports Integrity.
-
#106
So is it not feasible #58, or is it not interested #73. Do you get it? Doesn't it seem like the run around? That's just my point, you have your opinion, you value things differently than I do, I on the other hand have plenty of disposible income and demand nothing but the best service and quality. That includes top players and great customer service which I believe UD has demonstrated time and time again. Nothing against you, UD, or SI its simply business. Thanks UD for allowing us to voice our opinions & concerns even if we are constructively criticizing you. Maybe listening to these post may help you determine your target customers, maybe not.

#107
Bring in torri hunter! And evam longoria, he's from downey so he might be up for it! Agree with u 100% rafael!

Hey guys, First off I'd like to thank you for your enthusiasm and passion for the players that you want to see. I'd also like to thank you for making our website one of your frequent destinations on the web. Please know that we do read and take into consideration each and every post. We don't edit anything as long as it's kept in a professional manner. Does that mean that everybody is going to be all "sunshine & roses" towards what we're doing? No, but that's part of having an open forum and we're OK with that. I speak to Joe at Sports Integrity a couple of times a week trying to get personalities into our store with taking into consideration what is posted on this forum. There are some athletes that Joe just can't get due to no interest or costs involved. I can honestly say that Joe is constantly trying to get athletes into our store for signings. I'm sure you noticed that we haven't had much lately. What you don't know is that Joe has had a couple of athletes signed up and ready to go and at the last second doubled their fees. As much as Sports Integrity and Upper Deck would like to have these signings take place, it's just not feasible. The main reason is that these increases in appearance fees get passed onto you. We have a general idea, and so do you, of what is considered reasonable for a signing held at our store. If we feel that we can't satisfy both our customer and the promoter we can't go through with the signing. It's just the nature of the business. We know that there are some of you who would pay just about anything for a certain athlete, but most can't. So we're kind of in a "catch 22". Continue to shoot us ideas and between Sports Integrity and Upper Deck we'll try to make some things work. One thing that I can say we do is take into consideration the signing experience in our store. I can honestly say that it has improved. Is it perfect? No, but you know you can address any concerns with myself or with Sports Integrity. I've been to the signings where there are mass amounts of people and you come away disappointed due to not getting a signature or being pushed through like cattle. Our signings are on a smaller scale but the above does not happen. We're constantly trying to get better and with everybody's cooperation it can. Just know that we're working on it and are constantly trying to get athlete's into our store. Thanks for taking the time to read this and continue to voice your opinions. Bob Nevarez. Manager Upper Deck Retail

#110
Thanks Bob for the open communication and nice explanation. it is appreciated
-
#111
Bob thanks for the reply. We will continue to check the site for developing signings.
-
#112
I AM OFFERING MAIL ORDER FOR JERRY WEST FOR NET MONTH SO CONTACT ME SPORTSINTEGRITY@GMAIL.COM IF INTERESTED.
AGAIN, they are paying a HUGE amount to get West though a friend connection they have. The amount is astronomical FYI. Anyway, I have 150 pieces available to anyone interested. -
#113
Oh one more thing guys! I may have Fisher back at the store and GASOL may still happen. I should know by next week sometime. Was trying to get Lyoto THE DRAGON Machida into the store but he is heading back home.

I think with a better marketing/advertising effort, any lakers signing event will be profitable..just announce as early as possible
-
#115
Fisher will be good u should have a good turn out and he will sell after market gasol will sell out I hope it happens
-
#116

Hi all. Hope all is well. Just wanted to touch base. We are getting closer with Gasol and should have an answer with a date by next week when they return from Europe. I cant promise until I hear back but I feel confident this time thats all I can say. Waiting for Fisher and nothing on Chavez but trying.
Any interest in Jake Lamotta the Raging bull? Tried on Artest but its a no go.
Did you guys see my West and Magic pre sale for OCT? -
#121
sorry no Lamotta ...Chavez only one of the best ever!!! please bring old school lakers
-
#122
Hey joe what about brock lesnar? He's fighting here in anaheim.
-
#123
Andre Ethier. Slam n Jam botched the Ethier signing last time they had it at the Store! Sports Integrity would do a better job organizing things.that guy who ran Slam n Jam was rude and a fraud.
-
#124
Chavez would be cool and so would some MMA stars. Like the rest of us, i'll be waiting for the possibility of Pau Gasol.
-
#125
Hey all I should have an answer I was told this week on Gasol. Will keep you posted....
last call to order West for this coming weekend and Magic as well. I have jerseys for sale.
All items include JSA authentication
Leo - Lesnar is not feasible thanks for asking though.
Been trying to get Anderson Silva but he is out of the country. I have UFC 8x10s coming this week of various fighters including lesnar etc but its only a few of each.
I can be reached at sportsintegrity@gmail.com
Thanks for your support -

Joe what happened to bringin in lakers such as luke and sasha if they won the title was that all talk or are you gonna make it happen
-
#127
Why don't we try and avoid accusing Joe of being "all talk" and other comments? I think it would be better if we simply wait and see what happens. If he gets Gasol, I'll be happy for the whole year, if he doesn't then oh well.
-
#128
Damn that sux but I'd be game for mma stars. Hopefully u can get more Lakers! thanks joe
-
#129
Nobody is talkin about the gasol thing I'm talking about peoples request from the finals and joe said if they won the title he would look into bringing Some of the other players on the team some of us like the whole team not just the stars they won the finals now I just wanna know what's th plan with those guys

UFC Suggestions: BJ Penn, Tito Ortiz, Cain Velasquez, or Rampage Jackson. NBA Suggestions: Eric Gordon, Baron Davis, Al-Farouq Aminu, Devin Ebanks, and Derrick Caracter.

Joe x 2 are good people, let us be a little nicer guys. We are not going to get anywhere harassing them. Lets keep the comments positive. The Fisher 0.4 and the Horry shot are finally hanging in the Laker "Man Cave" at home and if it was not for Joe x 2, they would just be things I want but have no hope of getting. I look foward to Gasol, any word on Worthy, Cooper, Scott, Gail Goodrich. Elgin Baylor, Matt Barnes, Chuck Person, or any other Lakers? Thanks for the responses Joe x 2.

Drew Doughty!

#133
Any news on the Laker signings? Its been a week since Joe mentioned about it
-
#134
Sorry about the delay, everybody!
Unfortunately negotiations for a public signing with Pau Gasol have broken down, but there might be a possibility of a private signing with Gasol in the future.
Still working on more signings at Upper Deck. I'll keep you posted
Thanks,
Joe -
#135
Upper deck do you guys plan on bringing anybody into the store last year you brought in lakers and dodgers this year there's been nobody
-
#136
Autoseeker and other fans, Upper Deck and Sports Integrity are constantly working on athletes to bring into our store. Unfortunately we've had some bad luck lately with players we "thought" we had agreements with. Last minute they doubled their prices. Obviously we weren't able to make their demands so we had to pass. But this is something that you fans don't want to hear and I don't blame you. All I can say is we're trying really hard and hopefully we'll have somebody for you soon. Bob Nevarez - Manager

#141
How about Dez Bryant, Matt Barkley, Blake Griffin, Nnamdi Asomugha, and Phillip Rivers?
-
#142
Rick Monday... A must get!!!!
-
#143
Hopefully, Gasol would be feasible for a private signing.
-
#144
Hello Joe,
So what happen with the Private signing with Gasol and the public signing with Fisher? Make sure they include inscriptions. I want Fisher to include the 5X NBA Champion and Gasol to include the Back to Back Champion.
Thanks,
Eduardo -

Eduardo, from my last conversation with Joe of Sports Integrity they're working on the details for a private send in signing for Gasol. He's also working on bringing Derek Fisher back to the store. Need to figure out dates that will work with their game/practice schedules. Hopefully we hear something soon. Bob Nevarez
