Jeremy
Shockey
$229
Jeremy Shockey, of the New York Giants,
is one of the elite tight ends in the NFL today. Drafted by the
Giants out of the University of Miami where he was a 1st Team
All-American, Jeremy finished second in the NFL Rookie of the
Year voting in 2002 and was a Pro Bowl selection in each of his
first two seasons in the NFL.
Possessing great athletic abilities to run routes and make crucial
blocks, Shockey is perhaps best known for his sometimes brash
comments on other players and the media, and for his antics on
and off the field. This terrific photograph of Jeremy captures
just such an antic as Jeremy taunts the Eagles during a game with
a mock "Eagle Flap" of his arms. Hand-signed by Jeremy
and Quality
Framed in thick black wood, UV-protective glass and
classic double matting, this is the perfect gift for any NY Giants
fan. [why

Before Emmitt Smith broke Chicago Bears RB Walter
Payton's career rushing record in 2002, Cleveland
RB Jim Brown held the record for 20 years and Walter
Payton for 18 years after Brown. Said Smith at his
2005 retirement press conference, "It's a special
record because it takes durability, grace, desire,
determination and a short-term memory to get that
far up there. It's a record I've always wanted from
the first time I got here."
QB
Kenny Stabler was an Crimson Tide and Raider great. At Alabama
he was First-Team All-SEC, an All-American, and directed the Crimson
Tide to two National Championships. Following his stellar collegiate
career, Stabler went on to star in the NFL, winning the Super
Bowl in 1977 with the Oakland Raiders, where he was a cult favorite
of the Raider Nation. He played a total of 15 seasons (1970-84)
in the National Football League with the Raiders, Houston Oilers
and New Orleans Saints. This vintage 8x10 of "The
Snake" in action for the Raiders (against the Broncos)
is hand-signed by Kenny and Sports Gallery
Quality Framed in thick
black wood, UV-protective glass (very important for signature
protection!) and classic Raiders double matting. A great gift

Steel
Curtain Front Four new!
Greene, Greenwood, Holmes & White
16x20
$399
During
the 1970's, there was no defense more feared than the Pittsburgh
Steelers' Steel Curtain Defense, considered by many the greatest
defensive unit assembled in NFL history. And their best season
year may have been the 1976 season when the Steel Curtain simply
dominated games. After the Steelers started 1-4, the defense just
took over, holding their opponents to just two touchdowns over
the next nine games, and shutting them out five times, including
three consecutive games. Eight of the Steelers starting eleven
defensive players were selected for the Pro Bowl that year. Without
a doubt, this fabled defense was the backbone of the Steelers
dynasty of four Super Bowls Championships (IX, X, XIII, and XIV).
And at the core of this fabled defense was their famed front four
- "Mean" Joe Green (#75), L.C. Greenwood (#68), Ernie
Holmes (#63), and Dwight White (#78). Greene, of course, went
on to be named the 1974 Defensive Player of the Year and was elected
to the Pro Football Hall of Fame. This great collectible pays
tribute to this unforgettable foursome. This 16x20 action photograph
of the front four reeking havoc at the line is hand-signed by
ALL FOUR and uniquely framed
with their numbers and descriptive plaque. A great gift for that
longtime Steelers fan! [why

WR
John Taylor played for the 49ers from 1987 to 1995 and was an
exceptional counterpart to Hall of Fame teammate Jerry
Rice during that time - arguably one of the greatest
one-two receiver punches in 49ers history. Taylor is best know
for his winning 10-yard touchdown pass from Joe
Montana during the final seconds of Super Bowl XXIII
in 1989. One
of the great moments in 49ers' history, rivaling even "The
Catch" by Dwight Clark. But it was the season
after his Super Bowl winning touchdown reception that Taylor
established himself as one of the top receivers in the NFL.
Despite not being the #1 receiver on is team, Taylor finished
the 1989 season with 60 receptions for 1,077 yards and ten touchdowns.
He broke the 1,000 receiving yard milestone again in the 1991
season with 64 receptions for 1,011 yards and nine touchdowns.
In his nine NFL seasons, Taylor recorded 347 receptions for
5,589 yards and 43 touchdowns. He also gained 1,517 yards and
two touchdowns returning punts, and added another 276 yards
returning kickoffs. An NFL Pro Bowler in 1988 and 1989, Taylor
has three Super Bowl rings from his years with the Niners -
'88, '89 and '94. Remember this great player and moment in 49ers
history with this hand-signed photograph of his Super Bowl XIII
catch. We have two options. One is Sports Gallery Quality
Framed in thick black wood, UV-protective glass (very
important for signature protection!) and classic Niners double
matting. The other is a Sports
Gallery Exclusive and includes a replica ticket from
Super Bowl XXIII and a commemorative plaque. BOTH
are unique collectibles that would make a great gift for any
longtime Niners fan.
Buffalo Bills RB Thurman Thomas had a career that started and
ended with a question about his knee. In between, no one ever
questioned his heart. In 1988, when Thomas was drafted in the
second round (40th overall), then-GM Bill Polian just hoped that
the Bills would get a few good years out of the Oklahoma State
RB. Scouts feared his knee, injured during his senior season,
just wouldn't hold up. It held up and then some. There can be
no doubt that Thomas is a sure bet for the Hall of Fame, likely
in his first season of eligibility. That's what 16,532 yards from
scrimmage (6th in NFL history), 12,074 yards of it the ground
(9th in NFL history) will do for one's credentials. Four straight
Super Bowl appearances, five Pro Bowl berths, and an NFL MVP Award
(in 1991 when Thurman rushed for 1,407 yards and had a career
best 62 receptions) rounds out his case quite nicely. So does
shattering the team rushing record of an existing Hall of Famer,
O.J. Simpson. A fan favorite in Buffalo, Thurman hand-signed this
awesome action shot. Quality framed in thick black wood, UV-protective
glass and classic double matting, this beauty would make a great
gift for any Bills fan. [why

Y.A.
Tittle Web
Special!
Agony of Defeat 16x20 & 8x10
QB
Y.A. Tittle played 17 illustrious years in the AAFC and NFL.
He was an All-Pro 4 times and the League MVP twice - once with
San Francisco (1957) and once with the NY Giants (1962). Tittle
passed for 28,339 career yards and was inducted into the Football
Hall of Fame in 1971. This award winning photograph of Y.A.
bleeding from his forehead was taken on 9/20/64 after a loss
to the Steelers at Pitt Stadium. Hand-signed by Tittle this
photograph is considered by most sports enthusiasts as the quintessential
portrait of "the agony of defeat."
Sports Gallery Quality
Framed in thick black wood, UV-protective glass (very
important for signature protection!), and classic double matting,
this vintage black & white photo is a sports classic. A
great gift for any for any football fan!
This
famous Morris Berman photo of New York Giants quarterback Y.A.
Tittle kneeling, slump-shouldered in the endzone, blood trickling
from his forehead after a loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers is -
43 years later - still one of the most eloquent depictions ever
of the athlete's struggle for success and the aftermath of failure.
The Agony of Defeat, so to speak, that no athlete ever avoids
completely. Although Tittle also played for the Colts and 49ers,
he is best remembered for his three years with the New York Giants
when his passing took the team to three NFL Championship games.
The remarkable unsigned photograph never looked better than here.

Framed, this unsigned 16x20 photograph looks great

San
Diego Chargers RB LaDainian Tomlinson was selected out of Texas
Christian in the 1st round of the 2001 NFL Draft. The Chargers
had the 1st pick in the draft that year but anticipated that they
would be unable to sign Michael Vick.
They opted to trade their number one pick to the Atlanta Falcons
and take Tomlinson with the 5th overall pick. Nice move. In just
seven seasons, L.T. is already the Chargers’ all-time leading
rusher, has been named to four Pro Bowls, and has rushed for 1,200
yards in all six of his NFL seasons (only the second running back
to accomplish this feat in NFL history). But it was 2006 that
clearly defined LaDainian as one of the best backs to have ever
played the game. That season, Tomlinson set an NFL record by scoring
19 touchdowns in a span of 6 games, including a franchise record
4 touchdowns in games against the San Francisco 49ers, Cincinnati
Bengals and the Denver Broncos. He was the first to score three
TD's in three straight games, and the first to have three games
of four or more TDs in one season. He became the fastest player
ever to score 100 touchdowns and with the first touchdown against
Kansas City on December 17, he surpassed most points in a season
by an NFL player ( a record that had stood for 46 years). Tomlinson
would finish his record breaking season with 2,323 yards from
scrimmage (combined rushing and receiving) and 31 touchdowns (28
rushing, 3 receiving). Needless to say he was also awarded the
2006 NFL Most Valuable Player Award. Just a stud of a running
back,
this hand-signed close-up action photo of LaDainian is Sports
Gallery Quality
Framed in thick black wood, UV-protective glass and
classic Chargers double-matting. A great gift for any football
fan! [why

Known as a triple threat, on October 16, 2005, in
a Chargers victory over the Oakland Raiders, L.T.
became just the 7th player in NFL history to run,
catch and throw for a touchdown in the same game.

Brian
Urlacher
$249
Chicago Bears middle linebacker Brian Urlacher
is a beast. His 527 tackles in his first three NFL seasons was
the most ever for a Bears player during such as span. NFL Defensive
Rookie of the Year and Pro Bowl selection in 2000, Urlacher has
gone on to be a five-time Pro Bowler and an an iconic figure for
the Chicago Bears, smashing records of Bears greats like Dick
Butkus and Mike Singletary. In 2005, Urlacher was awarded the
NFL Defensive Player of the Year Award while leading the Bears
to the play-offs. And he's been nothing short of amazing in 2006.
The Bears are reminding fans in the Windy City of the great "Da
Bears" team of '85 and Urlacher has been a huge reason
for their success. During
the Bears’ first Monday Night Football appearance in three
years, Urlacher helped the Bears overcome a 20 point difference
and win a 24-23 victory over the Arizona Cardinals. Urlacher recorded
eleven tackles (with eight assists), and stripped the football
from Edgerrin James, leading to a pivotal Bears’ recovery
and touchdown. After the game, teammate Devin Hester said, "We
watched the film and everybody was saying that he just turned
into the Incredible Hulk the last four minutes of the game, just
killing people and running over and tackling whoever had the ball."
This great action photograph of Urlacher is hand-signed by Brian
and Sports Gallery Quality
Framed in thick black wood, UV-protective glass and
classic Bears double matting. A great gift for any Chicago fan.

Despite being a consensus first team All-American
at defensive back and finishing third all-time at
University of New Mexico with 442 tackles, Brian also
saw situational duty at receiver at UNM, leading the
team in scoring with 6 touchdown catches and 42 points
during his senior year.
Tommy Vardell is one of the most productive running backs ever
to play at Stanford. As a Cardinal, Vardell earned the nickname
"Touchdown Tommy" and, at the time of his graduation,
held Stanford records for both career and season rushing touchdowns.
In 1992, Tommy was the Cleveland Browns' first-round draft pick
(9th overall) in the NFL Draft. Tommy went on to play for San
Francisco where fans revived his "Touchdown Tommy" moniker.

along with his #44 that he wore throughout his pro and college

Atlanta
Falcons QB Michael Vick is a rocket-armed quarterback with blazing
speed. But before he was turning heads in the NFL as one of the
best young QB's in the League, he was setting records at Virginia
Tech. During his redshirt freshman year at VT, he led the Hokies
into the National spotlight and carried the school (on his arm
and legs) to compete in the National Championship Game in 1999.
In the process, he captured the first-ever Archie Griffin Award
as college football Player of the Year when he led the nation
in passing efficiency at 180.37, the second-highest total ever,
and guided the Hokies to a perfect 11-0 regular season record.
In the NFL, 2004 was Michael's coming out party as one of the
elite QB's in the League. Not only did he lead Atlanta to the
NFC Championship game but he did it with plays and athleticism
never before seen. And in 2005 he is doing much the same. A gifted
athlete, Vick is sure to lead Atlanta to many more Championship
games before his career is done. Get this terrific action photo
of Michael "Goin' Deep"

Atlanta
Falcons QB Michael Vick has become one of the elite quarterbacks
in the NFL. Drafted in the First Round of the 2001 Draft out of
Virginia Tech, Vick became the Falcons' starter in 2002 and quickly
became one of the front runners to win the NFL MVP Award. His
most mind-boggling performance of the season came on December
1, 2002 in a 30-24 victory over the Minnesota Vikings. During
that memorable game, he scored two touchdowns and ran for an NFL
record-breaking 173 yards - including a 46 yard dash in overtime
to give the Falcons the victory. After the game, the NFL requested
Michael's cleats for display at the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
You can bet that Michael will one day be joining his cleats in
Canton. Michael hand-signed this great action photograph of himself

It
is not often that a kicker is an integral part of the indentity
of a football team, but such is the greatness of Adam Vinatieri,
former Place Kicker for the New England Patriots. Adam is not
only one of the best kickers in the game but he is a huge reason
the Patriots won two of three Super Bowls. In Super Bowl XXVIII,
Vinatieri hit a game-winning 41-yard field goal with four seconds
left in the game giving the Patriots 32-29 victory over the Carolina
Panthers. And this followed his heroics of the 2002 Super Bowl
(Super Bowl XXVI), when Adam connected on a 48-yard field goal
as time expired to give the Patriots a 20-17 victory over the
Rams - the first time a Super Bowl was decided on the final play
of the game. Always among the League leaders in points scored
and field goal percentage, Vinatieri is only the 2nd player in
NFL history to reach the 100-point plateau in each of his first
seven seasons. An integral part of the Patriots Dynasty, get this
very cool 8x10 of Adam in action, hand-signed by Vinatieri and

Bill
Walsh & Joe Montana new!
"The Genius & The Comeback
Kid" (unisgned)
Joe
Montana and recently deceased Bill Walsh made a nearly perfect
quarterback-coach combination, and it started from the moment
Montana stepped into a 49er uniform in 1979. From the time he
drafted Montana, Walsh planned to make him the starting quarterback
that would take the 49ers to the next level and groomed him accordingly.
And in 1981 it all paid off. A magical season for the the 49ers,
that season, Bill, Joe and the revolutionary "West
Coast Offense" took the NFL by storm with the 49ers
going 13-3 and winning the first of of several Super Bowl Championships.
Under Walsh, the 49ers won Super Bowl Championships in 1981, '84,
and '88. And, of course, Joe added another Super Bowl Championship
after Bill retired. A football duo for the ages, the impact they
had not only on the 49ers, but all of football, cannot be underestimated.
This classic, unsigned b&w photograph showing "The
Genius and The Comeback Kid" strategizing at Candlestick
is a wonderful tribute to these two Hall of Famers. Available
either in 8x10 or 11x14 Display with descriptive plaque, both
are Sports Gallery
