HISTORIC LOU GEHRIG BAT, DR. J 1983 76ers WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP RING,MUHAMMAD ALI’S TRUNKS FROM “THE FIGHT OF THE CENTURY” DRAWING HIGHEST BIDS IN SCP AUCTIONS’ NOVEMBER AUCTION
Posted on | November 17, 2011 | No Comments
Auction concludes Saturday at SCPAuctions.com;
Bidding on Gehrig Bat at $142,659; Dr. J ring is at $104,441; Trunks up to $98,525
Laguna Niguel, Calif. (Nov. 17, 2011) – The bidding for Lou Gehrig’s 1938-39 bat used to hit his last home run in a Yankees uniform, Hall of Famer Julius “Dr. J” Erving’s 1983 World Championship ring and Muhammad Ali’s fight-worn trunks from Ali vs. Frazier – “The Fight of the Century” — is expected to heat up during the next two days, as collectors scramble to secure these coveted pieces of sports history before SCP Auctions’ November auction comes to a close Saturday, Nov. 19.
The item drawing the highest bid, the Lou Gehrig bat, has been described by SCP officials as the single finest piece of Gehrig memorabilia they’ve handled in the company’s 32-year history. In an exhibition game prior to the start of the 1939 season, Gehrig, in rapid decline from the insidious disease that now bears his name, utilized this very bat when he valiantly mustered the strength and form to hit his last two home runs in a New York Yankees uniform. The bat originates from the estate of well-known actor Bing Russell. Russell, father of actor Kurt Russell, received the bat directly from Gehrig immediately after Gehrig’s last big-league clout. The current bid is $142,659 and that figure is expected to rise dramatically in the auction’s final hours.
Additionally, Hall of Famer Julius “Dr. J” Erving’s 1983 World Championship ring is currently at $104,441 and Muhammad Ali’s fight-worn trunks from Ali vs. Frazier is at $98,525 and the bidding for those items, too, is anticipated to reach fever pitch as the auction comes to a close.
Bids (as of Nov. 17) on other prominent items in the auction include:
· Dr. J’s 1980-81 NBA Most Valuable Player Trophy – current high bid $69,053
· Dr. J’s 1976 New York Nets ABA World Championship Ring- current high bid $62,775
· Dr. J’s 1974 New York ABA World Championship Ring – current high bid $57,068
· 1887 Mike “King” Kelly Banquet Program – current high bid $57,068
· James Worthy’s Personal Player’s Edition Copy of 1996 NBA 50 Greatest Players Autographed Lithograph – current high bid $50,556
· Mickey Cochrane’s 1934 American League MVP Trophy – current high bid $40,264
· Ted Williams’ Boston Red Sox Game-Worn Road Jersey – current high bid $36,603
· Willie Mays’ Autographed 1970 San Francisco Game-Worn Jersey – current high bid $32,211
Collectors can bid through Saturday (Nov. 17) by logging on to www.scpauctions.com or calling (800) 350-2273. The initial-bidding period ends at 7 p.m. PST, with the auction ending after 15 minutes has elapsed without a bid on the entire auction.

Elite MMA Fighter Frost Murphy to Donate Entire Fight Purse to Charity at Legacy Fighting Championship 9 in December
Posted on | November 17, 2011 | No Comments
Legacy Fighting Championship and Elite MMA Partner with Murphy and HeartGift.org to Raise $22,000 for a Child in Need of Life-Saving Heart Surgery!
Houston, TX. – November 17, 2011 – On December 16, Frost Murphy, a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt out of Elite MMA in Houston, will not only be stepping into the cage to make his professional MMA debut, he will be fighting to save a life. Murphy will be donating his entire purse to HeartGift.org, a charity that provides lifesaving surgery to repair congenital heart defects in children who live in countries where specialized medical care is not available.
Murphy feels that fighting to benefit a charity like HeartGift.org is a great way to show the world that MMA isn’t just a blood sport and that fighters have a giving and compassionate side. He chose HeartGift.org to honor his future father-in-law, who is one of the co-founders of the organization. Murphy will make his pro MMA debut at Legacy Fighting Championship 9 against Chris “Chop” Rucker in December. 100% of his earnings that night will go directly to the charity.
The HeartGift Foundation brings children from around the world to Texas to correct life-threatening heart defects. They must travel to the U.S. for the procedure because adequate healthcare is not available in their home countries. Each child is strategically chosen and every dollar raised goes towards funding their heart surgery. The children return home post-surgery with a healthy heart and new found hope for the future.
According to Murphy, “There are so many people in mixed martial arts that are dedicated to making a difference, especially the fighters, from mentoring troubled kids to participating in charity events. The MMA community in Houston is a testament to that. Everyone has come together to raise the $22,000 needed to save this child, especially my gym, Elite MMA and Legacy Fighting Championships.”
Elite MMA recently held a fundraising event to benefit Murphy’s sponsored child that included an in-house grappling tournament, kick-a-thon, and a silent auction. The response was so overwhelming they were able to raise more than $17,000! Once the goal of $22,000 is met, additional funds will go towards sponsoring a second child.
In addition to fundraising initiatives executed by Elite MMA, Legacy Fighting Championship will be selling limited edition T-shirts on their website (starting in December) and at the Legacy FC 9 event on Dec. 16. 100% of the T-shirt proceeds will go to HeartGift.org. Fans everywhere can make a $10 donation by simply texting the keyword GIFT to 80077.
Legacy Fighting Championship 9 features a main event welterweight title bout between Strikeforce veteran’s Mike “The Greek” Bronzoulis and Jorge “Macaco” Patino. The event will take place on December 16 at the Houston Arena Theater in Houston, Texas. Doors open at 6:30pm CT. Fights begin at 7:30pm CT. Fight fans can purchase tickets at www.legacyfights.tv. The main card will air live on HDNet at 9:00pm CT.

Iowa and Penn State are the top two teams, receiving six and three first-place votes, respectively. Other highly ranked Big Ten teams are No. 4 Minnesota, No. 7 Illinois and No. 10 Ohio State.
No. 3 Oklahoma State was the only team other than Iowa and Penn State to receive a first-place vote.
