I remember trading cards in my youth with my brother in-law. He was my sister's boyfriend at the time. Needless to say(now that I know better)the the trades were always very much in my favor.

Regarding the youth of today. As most of you know, I invested in a card shop a few years ago. I can tell you that the youth of today for the most part have little respect for anything that isn't on the "Billboard top 10" or that isn't brand spankin new! It is a rare site to see anyone younger than 25 come in and buy cards. Younger people will come seeking Magic,Yugi-Oh or what ever the flavor of the month is.

I preach to my kids the value of respecting all things that are old.

And yes, I tell them there are few things as beautiful as a baseball field under the lights. There is indeed something magical about the game of baseball...
