Rob Hoskins: Super Collector
Rob Hoskins, a middle school science teacher from a small town outside of Lexington called Salyersville recently sent in pictures of his Stallone collection. I was impressed. My guess is you will be as well.
Here’s what Rob has to say about it:
I started collecting Stallone memorabilia when I was 6, right after a trip to see the original Rocky with my mom. My eyes were opened to the power of chasing your dreams. My collection has grown for nearly 30 years now.
A couple of weeks ago I posted that Grey Matter Art, under license from MGM, was set to release a new officially licensed, limited edition screen print featuring “Rocky” by artist, JC Richard. As you can see I can’t wait to get mine framed and up!
I always said that when I built a house someday I’d have the coolest basement on Earth.
My wife Molly is a fan as well (she’d have to be to live here).
Back in my late teens and early 20’s, my love for the Rocky movies led me into the boxing ring as an amateur. I captured a State Title here in Kentucky before retiring due to a detached retina in my left eye.
As a teacher, I always try to impart the lessons to my students that “Rocky” taught me…..that hard work and a willingness to grab onto your dreams can take you places you never thought possible.
Again, let me say Thank You for your kind words.
My dream now is to get to meet THE MAN. Who knows,
maybe he’ll see these and make it a reality!
– Thanks to Rob for sharing! What a great collection he has going Click on the pics to see them larger! – Craig

Sly vs Sly
In a lawsuit filed in Manhattan Federal Court, Sly Magazine LLC is accusing American Media, publisher of Sylvester Stallone’s Sly magazine, of violating their trademark.
They contend that Sly Magazine LLC controlled the trademark on the magazine name because their website went up in November and Sly’s magazine didn’t debute until March. Apparently they are choosing to ignore the fact that Sylvester Stallone announced the publication of his magazine in October [a month before the “other” Sly’s website went up] and that Stallone has been known as Sly for decades.
