Nice Garvey...I actually just got one last week too. I spent a few years in San Diego as a kid and it was awesome going to see the 84 Padres with Garvey, Nettles and Gossage...it was like seeing legends from eons earlier (i.e., before I was born) walking the earth as a 9 year old...those guys mean a ton to me.
