: Hey, come bid on a bunch of game-used crap and a 2010 World Series decal to remind you of how much last October sucked!

Me: Thanks, I’ll be in the corner sobbing and punching my dick in an uncontrolled fashion.

 

Good afternoon, the Phillies Tweeted a link to their Pro-Pack auction earlier today. It’s a noble cause, with proceeds going to Phillies Charities, but check out the items in the Postseason Memories Pack:

  • Ibañez Autographed 2009 World Series Banner.
  • Rollins Autographed 2010 Celebratory bottle (FJ 195194).
  • Utley Autographed cap (FJ 653279).
  • 2010 NLCS Program.
  • Mayberry Autographed 2009 NLCS Champions Locker Nameplate.
  • Manuel Autographed baseball (FJ 075761).
  • Lidge and Ruiz Autographed baseball.
  • 2010 Fall Classic decal banner.

 

A John Mayberry Jr. NLCS Champions locker nameplate? A John Mayberry Jr. NLCS Champions locker nameplate? John Mayberry Jr. was not on the 2009 NLCS roster. He was there (I think) as part of the 40-man roster, but he wasn’t even active, let alone playing in any games. Don't worry, though, he signed it! In related news, I just signed a Chase Utley game-worn jersey. The bidding starts at $400.

And then, of course, there’s the fond memory of the 2010 World Series… between the evil, spirit-crushing Giants and the Rangers. You can now own a decal to celebrate the historic clash. Perhaps a Cliff Lee Rangers hat would have been more appropriate. Then again, he lost both of his starts. Fuck.

Hurry! The opening bid starts at $250. Honestly, you'd be better off just donating the $250 and saving yourself the $25 shipping charge.
