RB
Marcus Allen played 16 seasons with the Raiders and Chiefs. During
that time he gained 12,243 yards rushing, 5,411 yards receiving,
and scored 145 touchdowns. Considered one of the game’s
best goal line and short-yardage runners, Marcus began his pro
career as the NFL Rookie of the Year and ended as the game’s
all-time rushing touchdown leader. During his 11 seasons with
the Raiders, the former USC standout was named to the Pro Bowl
five times (Marcus later added a sixth appearance as a member
of the Chiefs). Allen's big-game performance in Super Bowl XVIII
when the Raiders defeated the Washington Redskins 38-9 earned
Marcus Super Bowl MVP honors. In that game he rushed for 191 yards
and scored two touchdowns, one a Super Bowl record 74-yard gallop.
Allen’s finest season came in 1985 when he led the league
with 1,759 rushing yards on 380 carries for a 4.6 yards per carry
average and 11 touchdowns. He also caught 67 passes for 555 yards
with three touchdowns. He was voted the 1985 AFC Most Valuable
Player. In 1995, Marcus made NFL history when he became the first
player in league history to rush for over 10,000 yards and catch
passes for over 5,000. Elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame
in 2003, Allen remains one of the best running backs to have ever
played the game. [why

Pittsburgh
Steelers QB Terry Bradshaw
was the first player selected in the 1970 National Football League
Draft. It took the 6-3, 215-pound Louisiana Tech graduate a few
seasons to adjust to the pro game but once he did, he became the
dominant quarterback of the NFL and led the Pittsburgh Steelers
to eight AFC Central championships, and an unprecedented four
Super Bowl titles in a six-year period from 1974 to 1979. In four
Super Bowls, he passed for an impressive 932 yards and 9 touchdowns.
In his 14-season career, Bradshaw completed 2,025 of 3,901 passes
for 27,989 yards and 212 touchdowns. He also rushed 444 times
for 2,257 yards and 32 touchdowns. Bradshaw, who was named the
NFL’s Most Valuable Player by the Associated Press and others
in 1978, was elected the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1989. [why

Wide-receiver
Cliff Branch spent his entire 14-year career with the Raiders,
winning 3 NFL Championship rings in Super Bowl XI, XV and XVIII.
Cliff caught two touchdowns in Super Bowl XV and 6 passes for
94 yards and a touchdown in Super Bowl XVIII. Cliff had perhaps
his finest season in 1976 catching 46 passes for 1,111 yards and
12 TD's, averaging an amazing 24.2 yd per catch. Branch was named
to four consecutive Pro Bowls (1974-1977) and in 1974 led the
NFL in both receiving yards(1,092) and receiving touchdowns(13).
Cliff finished his impressive 14 NFL seasons with 501 receptions
for 8,685 yards and 67 touchdowns. Without a doubt, one of the
All-Time Raider Greats at the wide-receiver position, Cliff is
a proud member of the Raider Nation. Cliff recently made a special
in-store appearance at our new Walnut Creek store.
At the siging, Cliff signed many Raider collectibles including
this very cool Raiders mini-helmet. Check out Cliff's special
"SB XI, XV, XVIII"
inscription.
A great collectible from a great period in Raiders history. [why

Tim
Brown is considered to be one of the best wide-recievers in NFL
history. In 2001, the Notre Dame grad and 1987 Heisman Trophy
winner became the Raiders all-time scoring leader in touchdowns
reaching the 100 touchdown mark (receiving and rushing) for his
career, the first Raider to accomplish this feat. In 2002, Tim
became one of only three receivers in NFL history to make 1,000th
receptions -one of the other two being then-teammate Jerry Rice.
He retired as a Raider in 2004, leaving the Silver & Black
with nearly every Raiders receiving record. For his NFL career,
Brown is 2nd all-time in career receiving yards (behind Jerry
Rice), third all-time in receptions (behind Rice and Cris Carter),
and fourth all-time in touchdown receptions (99). He also is the
owner of the third longest receptions streak in NFL history with
179 straight games with at least one reception. This very cool
Official Raiders Mini-helmet is hand-signed by Tim along with
his famous #81. An all-time Raiders Great, this unique mini-helmet
would make a great gift for any citizen of the Raider Nation.

strength. A Great leader and tremendous competitor, he was adept
at forcing fumbles with 22 lifetime interceptions and 25 opponents'
fumble recoveries Dick was All-NFL seven years and was in eight
straight Pro Bowls. He was enshrined into the Football Hall of
Fame in 1979. A true Bear if ever there was one, Dick signed this
official Chicago Bears mini-helmet. [why

On
August 29th, 2004 49ers Great Dwight Clark made a special Sports
Gallery In-Store Appearance at our Carmel,
California location. A Pro-Bowl wide receiver, Dwight was a member
of two 49ers Super Bowl Teams and had his number 87 retired by
the club. The most memorable of his 48 touchdowns came in the
1982 NFC Playoffs when he caught the winning touchdown fromJoe Montanain the back of the endzone in the game's
final minute. Known simply as The
Catch, it is a moment in 49ers history that
no Niner fan will ever forget. Dwight
signed for both the public and Sports Gallery during his Carmel
appearance, providing us with a limited number of hand-signed
49ers collectibles to offer to the public, including official
49er mini-helmets. A great gift and remembrance of arguably the
greatest catch in 49ers history. [why

San
Francisco 49ers Great Roger Craig joined the Niners as a second-round
draft choice in 1983 out of the University of Nebraska. During
his storied 49ers career he quietly became a key member of the
vaunted San Francisco offense of the 1980's. The
6-foot, 219-pound running back set an NFL record for a running
back with 92 pass receptions in 1985, gaining 1,016 yards. In
1985, Roger became the first player in history to gain more than
1,000 yards receiving and more than 1,000 yards rushing in a single
season. Craig was named the NFC's Offensive Player of the Year
by United Press International in 1988, when he rushed for 1,502
yards and caught 76 passes for 534 yards. An All-NFL choice in
1988 and a four-time Pro-Bowler, Roger scored 3 touchdowns when
San Francisco beat the Miami Dolphins 38-16 in Super Bowl XIX.This three-time Super Bowl Champion recently visited
Sports Gallery Walnut Creek for an exclusive signing
with Raider Great Cliff
Branch. At the signing, Roger signed this official
49ers mini-helmet with the special "1000/1000 85," a
tribute to his remarkable feat in 1985. A great remembrance of
the Niners glory days of the 80's, this collectible would make
a great gift for any longtime Niners fan.

Retired
Denver Broncos QB John Elway began his assault on the QB position
at Stanford University. By the time he finished playing quarterback
for The Cardinal, John held NCAA Division I career records for
passing attempts and completions, and most games with more than
200 yards passing (30). Over four years, he passed for 9,349 yards
and 77 touchdowns, earning All-America honors his senior year.
A first-round draft choice of the Baltimore Colts in 1983, Elway
was immediately traded to the Broncos, where John quickly became
one of the most feared quarterbacks in the league. From 1983 through
1998, he led his team to five victories in six AFC championship
games and two Super Bowl wins. Elway’s record 47 fourth quarter
game-winning or game-tying drives are legendary, including "The
Drive" vs. the Cleveland Browns in the 1986 AFC title
game. At the time of his retirement, John ranked second all-time
in three of the game’s most significant passing categories,
passing yards (51,475), attempts (7,250), and completions (4,123).
Selected to play in nine Pro Bowl games, John also was the NFL’s
Most Valuable Player in 1987, AFC Offensive Player of the Year
in 1993, Super Bowl XXXIII Most Valuable Player, and was elected
to the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2004, John's first year of
eligibility. Simply one of the all-time best to play the QB position,
John hand-signed both of these official mini-helmets, one Denver
and the other Stanford. Great collectibles from a great football
talent, these minis would make a great gift for any Elway fan.
QB
Brett Favre has been the starting quarterback for the Green Bay
Packers since 1992. The winner of three consecutive NFL MVP Awards
(1995-97), Brett was without question the heart and soul of the
Packers until his retirement in 2008. In 1996 Favre led the Packers
to their greatest season in 30 years. Green Bay compiled an NFL-best
regular season record of 13-3, dispatched San Francisco and Carolina
at Lambeau Field in the playoffs, and advanced to Super Bowl XXXI
at the Louisiana Superdome. Favre threw two touchdown passes over
50 yards and scored another touchdown rushing, and the Packers
won the Vince Lombardi Trophy over the New England Patriots, 35-21.
And in 2007 Brett worked the same kind of magic with the Pack
leading them to the NFC Title Game. On September 30, 2007, Favre
threw a 16-yard pass to Greg Jennings for his 421st career touchdown
pass, passing Dan Marino's total of 420 and making him the all-time
career touchdown pass leader in NFL history. They should just
put Brett in the Hall of Fame now and get it over with. This
authentic Packers mini-helmet is hand-signed by Brett along with
his famous #4. A really nice collectible and great gift for any
football fan. [why

Running
Back Toby Gerhart of Stanford University was one of the best
stories in college football in 2009. Toby came out of nowhere
to become a consensus All-American, Heisman Trophy candidate,
and top prospect in the 2010 NFL Draft. And he did it all playing
for the Stanford Cardinal, not exactly a football...and especially
running back..factory. When it was all said and done, Gerhart
led the nation, and set Stanford single season records, in rushing
yards (1,871), touchdowns (28) and points scored (172). Toby
won the Jim Brown Trophy and Doak Walker and Archie Griffen
Awards, all prestigious National Running Back Honors. And he
received 1276 points in the Heisman voting, coming in second
to the heavily favored Mark Ingram, Jr. of Alabama, who received
1304 points. The 28-point margin was the closest vote in Heisman
history. A football performance on the Farm that had the fans
chanting "Toby..
Toby... Toby!" all season long (and especially when
the Card totally dominated USC at the LA Coliseum). Destined
to go down as one of the All-Time Stanford Football Greats and
Stories, this very cool hand-signed Stanford mini-helmet is
a beauty, especially when combined with a mini-helmet case.
A great collectible from a great college player and a totally
unique gift for any Cardinal fan. After all, everybody
loves Toby! Except maybe Cal Bear fans... [why

SF
49ers Rookie RB Kendall Hunter is looking like the real deal.
Chosen with the 115th pick in the 2011 NFL Draft out of Oklahoma
St. he is the Cowboys' fourth all-time leading rusher and their
first All-America running back since Gerald Hudson in 1990.
A native of Tyler, Texas, Hunter was the nation's seventh leading
rusher with 119.6 yards per game, including nine 100-yard rushing
games, in 2008. He led the Big 12 in rushing by more than 30
yards per game. He was named a First Team All-American in his
sophomore campaign and again in 2010, his senior year. Also
in Hunter's senior season he was a finalist for the Doak Walker
award. On the 49ers, he won the #2 Back behind Frank Gore, seeing
good action each week. And making the most of action with his
lightening speed and ability to find the holes. Obviously Jim
Harbaugh is a fan, using Kendall more and more each game throughout
the season and playoffs (and even starting him week 4 against
the Eagles when Gore went down with an injury). Watch out for
Kendall and the 49ers as they look to advance past the NFC Championship
Game in 2012! This official SF 49ers mini-helmet was hand-signed
by Kendall at his recent Sports Gallery signing. A cool collectible
from a very cool Niner. [why

Ronnie
Lott, an All-America from Southern California, was the San Francisco
49ers’ first round draft pick in the 1981 National Football
League Draft. In his first NFL season, Lott led a young secondary
that helped the 49ers to win Super Bowl XVI. During his career,
the versatile defensive back earned 10 Pro Bowl invitations at
three different positions – cornerback, free safety, and
strong safety. During his career with the 49ers (1981-1990), Los
Angeles Raiders (1991-1992), and the New York Jets (1993-1994)
Lott recorded 63 career interceptions and twice led the league.
A complete player, he surpassed the 1,000-career tackle mark in
1993, and had five seasons of at least 100 tackles. In his ten
seasons with the 49ers, San Francisco won eight NFC Western Division
titles and four Super Bowls. “He’s like a middle linebacker
playing safety,” Hall of Fame coach Tom Landry once remarked.
“He’s devastating. He may dominate the secondary better
than anyone I’ve seen.” Named All-Pro eight times, All-NFC
six times, and All-AFC once, Lott was also named to the NFL’s
75th Anniversary Team and was inducted into the Pro Football Hall
of Fame in 2000. Ronnie
signed this official San Francisco 49ers mini-helmet during his
August 2006 Sports Gallery Signing
at our Carmel store. Included is the rare inscription "HOF
2000" the year of his induction in the Hall of Fame.
A timeless collectible from a football player for the ages. And
a GREAT gift for that special Niners fan in your life. [why

Football
Legend Ronnie
Lott visits Sports
Gallery!
Before
his Hall of Fame professional career, Ronnie Lott played his college
ball at the University of Southern California. During his years
of play as a safety at USC (1977-1980), he helped the team to
a share of the 1978 national championship and played in the 1979
and 1980 Rose Bowls. Lott was a unanimous All-American and team
captain in 1980. He was inducted into the College Football Hall
of Fame in 2002 and was also a 1995 inductee to the USC Athletic
Hall of Fame. And, of course, he experienced similar success in
the NFL where he won four Super Bowls with the San Francisco 49ers,
was an eight-time All-Pro, eight times, and was named to the NFL’s
75th Anniversary Team. One of the best to have ever played the
safety position, Ronnie signed this official USC mini-helmet during
his August
2006 Sports Gallery Signing at our Carmel Store. Included
is the rare inscription "HOF 2002"
the year of his induction in the College Football Hall of Fame.
A collectible you won't find anywhere else and a GREAT gift for

After
Ronnie Lott's Hall of Fame career with the San Francisco 49ers,
he spent a season with the Raider Nation, signing as a free
agent in 1991. And all he did in the Silver and Black was lead
the League in interceptions! An amazing defensive player, Ronnie
Lott was the portrait of uncompromising tenacity. He slammed
into runners, disrupted pass patterns, and separated ball carriers
from footballs - in other words, the perfect Oakland Raider.
No opponent who met Lott on a football field forgot the introduction.
Asked once to describe the style with which he delivered a defensive
blow, he said simply, "It comes from your toes, it comes
from your soul, it comes from all that you are." And how's
this for a resume:

Howie
Long was a second-round pick of the Oakland Raiders in the 1981
NFL Draft and the 48th player selected overall. What a pick this
four-year letterman from Villanova turned out to be for the Silver
and Black! Three years later, in 1983, the 6-5, 268-pound defensive
end helped the team capture it's second Super Bowl title with
a 38-9 win over the Washington Redskins in Super Bowl XVIII. His
five-tackle performance in that game capped off a season that
saw him record a career-high 13 sacks, including five in one game
against the Redskins. The following season Long recorded 58 tackles,
12 sacks, and nine passes defensed and was named the NFL Defensive
Lineman of the Year by the NFL Alumni Association. During his
stellar 13-year career with the Raiders, Long was selected to
eight Pro Bowls and was an All-Pro selection five times. Fast,
strong, and explosive off the ball, Long was a member of the NFL's
All-Decade team of the 1980's and was elected to the Pro Football
Hall of Fame in 2000. A Raider Nation favorite this hand-signed
Official Raiders Mini-helmet is an awesome gift for any fan of
the Silver & Black. And for a short time this very cool collectible
is a Web Special! [why

Did
you know?
Howie was an exceptional all-around athlete. He not
only was a basketball and track star in high school
but, even more impressively, was the Northern Collegiate
Boxing Champion while at Villanova.
Former
Buffalo Bills RB Marshawn Lynch attended University of California,
Berkeley where he was the school's second all-time leading rusher
with 3,230 yards. Lynch holds the school record for most 100 yard
rushing games at 17. In 2006, Lynch was named First Team All Pac-10
and First Team All-American. The Pac-10 Offensive Player of the
Year that season, Lynch ran for 111 yards and 2 touchdowns against
Texas A&M in the Pacific Life Holiday Bowl, his last game
for the Golden Bears. On January 2, 2007, Lynch announced he would
forgo his senior season and entered the NFL draft. Marshawn was
drafted by the Bills in the first round (12th overall) of the
2007 NFL Draft and went on to become the Bills' first 1,000 yard
rookie rusher since Greg Bell in 1984. He finished a successful
rookie season with 1,115 total rushing yards and seven touchdowns.
And now with the Seahawks, Marshawn had one of the greatest postseason
runs in history in Seattle's upset of the Saints. "Beast-Mode"
indeed! Lynch
signed both of these very cool mini-helmets during Marshawn's
Sports Gallery Signing at our Walnut Creek Store. Great
collectibles from a NFL star. And for a limited time a Web
