Interesting. Surprisingly, it sums up my sentiments rather well.

Some of the comments are hilarious.

"When I was a kid, I was so proud of myself when I bought a 1986 Topps Traded Will Clark rookie card with my lawn-mowing money. At the time, he was my favorite player since he was also from New Orleans. It just so happened my mom had a friend who dated him. She brought him the card to autograph, and that motherfu**er never gave it back. That cackling douche has been dead to me ever since"

Nice read. Thanks for the link Rob.
