What cool Texans' memorabilla do you have?

[Hardcore Texan]

Just curious to what kind of collectibles some you guys might have out there?
My wife just got me a football (souvenir style, with white leather) signed by Mario Williams! It came with a certificate of authenticity as well, she won it in a charity auction yesterday. It will be going in a display case on my mantle in the game room. Anyway, I am pumped about it. I am going to get a pic of it, and post it here. If Mario blossoms into a superstar (which I think he has very good chance of doing) it will be worth a lot one day, not that I would ever let it go.
I also have a pratctice football used by the Texans (another charity auction), and tons of other gear. But I would like to hear what collectibles some of you have.

Sorry, I thought I put this in the Tailgate section.

I have a collection of every first round draft pick rookie cards. I have autographs on David Carr, Dunta Robinson, Jason Babin, and Travis Johnson.
I also have newspapers of the first ever win and many video tapes of when the team was first announced.
I am looking to collect our first ever playoff win very soon.

Well, I tried to post a picutre of the football, but it will not let me.

Anyone know how we can post a pic?

I have Jamie Sharper's game used jersey after the second season. The year that he led the league in tackles. As he was walking off the field of the last game of the season he stopped and and took his jersey off and threw it into the stands where I caught it.
My daughter has a nice collections of game used footballs given to her by David Carr (2 of them)both autographed by david, one by Ed Huckley (sorry for the mispelling) autographed by the team and one by Andre Johnson this year also autographed by Andre, also I am the proud owner of the last used football that the refs took off the field right before Kris Brown used his kicker ball to kick the game winning field goal against the Colts this past season. My daughter also has a kicker ball given to her by Chad Stanley that is autographed by Chad and Kris Brown.
I also have game used gloves from almost every player on the team with almost all of them autographed.
If you can't tell I am a huge fan and keep everything I get. I have a sports room that would make any texans fan proud.

Wow, that's a lot of stuff. You must know someone on the "inside" or you're good at being at the right place at the right time. Either way, that's awesome!

I have a Texans authentic Helmet given at the draft day party,an autographed DeMeco Ryans football, all the paraphenellia from our opening game against the Cowgirls. Also have the Miller Lite poster announcing the Texas Showdown between the Texans and Cowboys (gotten from another poster on the old board, numerous hats, t-shirts, mugs, coffe cups, footballs, and koozies.

Honestly, the memorabilla will be more worth buying when the fans start seeing some productivity/wins this season out of this franchise. Get real, who puts their hard-earned money into a losing team? D.Ryans has shown something cool, can the rest of the team follow?

I had to think about this one but I would have to say my Houston NFL 2002 watch in its case never worn. Its got a blue leather band and the dial is white with the Houston NFL 2002 logo on the dial.

It's funny, but I think memorabilia, and I think of old stuff, and we're not that old for a franchise. Nonetheless, some of y'all ahve some great stuff.
I would say my top 5 Texans items are:
Aaron Glenn's autograph Battle Red Flash got me in year one on a mini-football
A Texans mini helmet for on top of the TV, nothing special, it's just cool.
The Texans/cowboys bobblehead from the first game.
A David Carr bobblehead that you got when signing up for a credit card
My "Captain Texan" cape made out of the Battle Red Reliant Towels sewn together by my Mom.
GO TEXANS!
