The Missus has been kind enough, over the course of the past two and a half years, to indulge me in the collection of some autographed baseball and football jerseys (as you've seen below). After much frustration, delays, and holes in the wall, we've completed our quest to get them framed and up on the walls (though the George Brett jersey has replaced the Stan Musial jersey, as we look for a shadowbox that'll fit it).
Here's how it looks (if something looks tilted, it's the picture, not how it's hanging):
(NFL Hall of Famer John Riggins, Washington Redskins)
(NFL Hall of Famer Sammy Baugh, QB for the Redskins BEFORE WORLD WAR II)
(1957 Heisman Trophy Winner John David Crow, Texas A&M)
(Some guy named Nolan Ryan)
(Kansas City Royals Hall of Famer George Brett)
(Baltimore Orioles Hall of Fame pitcher Jim Palmer--yeah, the guy who did the underwear ads)
(Orioles hall of famer Brooks Robinson, also known as the best third baseman EVER)
And, of course, the crown jewel...
Yeah, the guy who's named after my dog. At least, that's what Rippy says.
So Riggo, Baugh and Cal are in the main TV room; the rest are in the computer room. They're a major portion of my collection, which I'm very proud of--and very greatful to Momma Pug that I could get them, much less take up all the upstairs wall space to hang 'em.

I like the jerseys -- true sign of a REAL sports fan. Now only if you can get a Yankee jersey in that collection ...
