Default HOFers and my favorite team...

I actually broke up a bunch of sets (all 1975 and later) and pulled out just HOFers and Cleveland Indians. Everything else is sorted out as commons available for sale /trade/giveaway. Not only were they taking up too much space, but I was not enjoying owning them as complete sets, and I too didn't like the prospects of searching the world over for another common I might need in an older set. So now my targets are ~40-50 cards total per set, and I have a more realistic chance of getting them. I am reinvigorated as I look for just what I want at shows and on eBay. And its even fun to sift through all the cards I put aside, looking for newly minted HOFers, as I recently did when I pulled every Bert Blyleven card I had previously cast aside. I'm sure I'll do the same when some others get the call, especially managers (Torre, LaRussa, etc.). Not exactly a box of 20, but not too many more for sure!
