When
he left the University of Tennessee, Peyton held 42 NCAA, SEC
and Tennessee records, including 33 Tennessee single game, season
and career records. The 1998 #1 pick of the Indianapolis Colts,
Manning, hasn't missed a beat in the Pros. A five-time Pro Bowler,
he's produced totals in his first 5 seasons that rank among
the best in the NFL. He is the only player in NFL history with
3,000 passing yards in each of his 1st 4 seasons and the only
Colts QB with 4 consecutive 3,000+ yards seasons. Manning is
also the only QB in NFL history to throw for 12,000+ yards in
1st 3 seasons.
And in 2004, Peyton was nothing short of amazing. His phenomenal
season earned him his second successive Associated Press NFL
Most Valuable Player Award joining the likes of Joe Montana,
John Unitas, Steve Young and Kurt Warner as quarterbacks with
two MVP awards. Manning threw for 49 touchdowns, surpassing
Dan Marino's 20-year-old NFL record and he shattered Young's
season passer rating record with a 121.1 mark. Get this Official
Colts mini-helmet, hand-signed by Peyton. A great gift for any
football fan. [why

The
Miami Dolphins selected University of Pittsburgh QB Dan Marino
with the 27th overall pick in the 1983 draft. He was the fifth
quarterback selected in that draft. The pick turned out to be
a steal. In his first professional season, Marino threw for
2,210 yards and 20 touchdowns. He was named NFL Rookie of the
Year and he was also the first rookie to start at quarterback
in the Pro Bowl. When Marino announced his retirement on March
13, 2000, he held 25 NFL regular season records and was tied
for 5 others. In his 17-year career he passed for 61,361 yards
and 420 touchdowns. His 86.4 passing efficiency rating ranks
4th all-time. This Dolphins mini-helmet is hand-signed by Dan
along with his #13. [why

$395
On
August 28th, 2004, Sports Gallery conducted an Exclusive
Joe Montana Signing. On the following day, our Carmel,
California store had a special Dwight
Clark In-Store Appearance.
Montana, of course is considered by many to be the greatest quarterback
ever, after a Hall of Fame career with the San Francisco 49ers
that included nine divisional titles and victories in Super Bowls
XVI, XIX, XXIII, and XXIV. Dwight Clark, a Pro-Bowl wide receiver,
was a member of two 49ers Super Bowl Teams and had his number
87 retired by the club. The most memorable touchdown for both
Joe and Dwight came in the 1982 NFC Playoffs when Dwight 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. Remember
what many consider to be the greatest single play in 49ers history
with this very cool, official 49ers mini-helmet signed by BOTH
Dwight and Joe during our recent signings with these two football
greats. A terrific gift for any Niners fan that you won't find
anywhere else. [why

QB
Jim Plunkett is one of Stanford's all-time great quarterbacks.
By the time his career at the Farm was over he had set and NCAA
record (at that time) for career total offense (7,887 yards)
and had passed for over 7,500 yards. In the "Year of the
Quarterback," he was voted the 1970 Heisman Trophy, easily
beating out Notre Dame's Joe Theisman and Mississippi's Archie
Manning. And he capped his Stanford career by leading the Indians
to an improbable 27-17 upset of unbeaten Ohio State in the '71
Rose Bowl. Jim went on to be named AFL Rookie of the year in
'71 after being the first player chosen in the NFL draft by
the New England Patriots. Later in his career he led the Oakland
Raiders to Super Bowl victories in 1981 and '84, being selected
the Super Bowl MVP in the 1984 game. This
great collectible is hand-signed by Jim along with his Stanford
and Raiders #16. [why

Fullback
Tom Rathman's professional football career spanned nine years,
the first seven of which were with the San Francisco 49ers.
While in San Francisco, Tom was backfield mates with another
Nebraska alumnus, Roger
Craig. At Nebraska, Rathman was a three-year letterwinner
in football and finished his college career with 1,425 rushing
yards, averaging over six yards per carry. A
selfless player and unsung hero in the 49ers' success, Tom spent
much of his playing time providing devastating blocks for Craig,
helping the Niners capture two World Championships (Super Bowl
XXIII and XXIV). In Super Bowl XXIV, Rathman scored two touchdowns
in San Francisco's route of the Denver Broncos. In 1989, he
led all NFL running backs in receiving with 73 receptions for
616 yards!
At
Tom's recent
Sports Gallery signing, he signed many very cool
Niner, Raider, and Cornhusker collectibles, including this Nebraska
min-helmet.
Tom boldly autographed this mini right about the famous "N"
and even included his college number and "Go Huskers"
inscription. A great...and totally unique...gift for any longtime
Nebraska fan. But hurry...we only have a few left from our signing! [why

Baltimore
Colts QB Johhny Unitas career statistics include 40,239
yards and 290 touchdowns passing. His record of at least one touchdown
pass in 47 consecutive games may stand forever. A genuine team
player, Unitas was a first- or second-team All-NFL choice eight
years, selected NFL Player of the Year three times, and named
to 10 Pro Bowls. Without a doubt, it was his last-second heroics
in the 1958 NFL title game, often called "the greatest game
ever played," that turned Unitas into a household name. The
New York Giants, with two minutes to play, were leading, 17-14,
when the Colts started a last-gasp drive at their own 14. Mr.
Clutch went coolly to work with seven straight passes that
set up a game-tying field goal with seven seconds left. Unitas
then engineered a textbook perfect 80-yard march to win the game
in overtime. The game, played before a national television audience,
gave Unitas his chance to demonstrate all of his marvelous attributes
confidence, courage, leadership, play calling genius, and
passing skill. Now deceased, Unitas hand-signed
this official Colts mini-helmet. Obviously there are not many
of these helmets available for purchase so don't please don't
hesitate. A great gift for any Colts fan, this mini-helmet comes
with a FREE glass mini-helmet
case. [why

Did
you know?
A ninth-round draft choice of the 1955 Pittsburgh Steelers,
Unitas was cut before he even threw one pass in a game.
Still determined, he played semi-pro football for $6 a game,
where he was discovered by Baltimore coach Weeb Ewbank playing
on the Pittsburgh sandlots.
