    I thought people were going to tease me for having a poster from the 1990s. I feel better now that you ventured into the latter portion of the decade.

    Don't have time to look it up now - the one of Clay in follow through standing over a fallen Liston is the best poster ever.

    I had one of Secretariat turning for home in the Derby on my wall for years.

    Yeah, that's the ticket. My son has a monster version on his wall. Amazing shot.

    The first ones I ever had up were all the ones with the huge white border like the top Erving poster that 93 Devil put on there...

    I had the Bo Jackson one. The Black and Blue one.

    Me too.

    Who sold those? Foot Locker? Was Foot Locker even around when I was 10?

    I noticed how many from that era had players with guns in the posters. No way that gets allowed by Goodell, I imagine.

    I had one of those of Marino.

    Would have been all over that Lott poster.

    Used to know a guy who worked for a company that made posters similar to those, but the quality and themes paled next to these ones. He gave me a whole bunch of them once, best was one of the Stanley Cup that was so good you could even read some of the names. Had it up in the basement for years.

    Had one from the late 80s Knicks called "The Bomb Squad"

    It featured several Knick players (Trent Tucker, Mark Jackson, Rod Strickland come to mind) posed in front of a fighter jet. They were called that because of Pitino's high-octane offense around Ewing.
