My years of buying packs was between 1959 and 67 at which point girls suddenly became more interesting than they were previously. Anyway, what I hated was that trip to the store when the boxes of baseball cards were replaced with football cards. I was, and still am, a baseball guy. Loved the summers!

Baseball's appeal isn't complicated or confusing. It's about the beauty of the game; it's about heroes and family and friends; it's about being part of something larger than yourself, about tradition---receiving it and passing it; and it's about holding on to a bit of your childhood.
