Pete Rose is my favorite and Ty Cobb. The autographed postcard I got is from 1977 when they were a cost of a postage stamp.

For the DEAD-BALL Era and all Time Mr. Cobb second to none. He is the greatest player of all time. For someone to not admire him at least and call them self a baseball fan is just not right.
Growing up "The Big Hurt" Frank Thomas and PK Paulie Paul Konerko Now Jose Abreu, Avaisail Garcia (going to be the next Magglio). Chris Sale I love his old school attitude you plunk a teammate of his you better watch your ass next inning he'll get revenge. It's hard not to like a player you've been watching their whole career to this point and see him on the cuff of being a Cy Young winner (if he ever had a good team). Mark Buehrle .... of course I still check in on how he's doing IMO he can pitch another 8 years or so with his mechanics. 10 wins a season automatic. Could possibly/maybe dreaming a bit be a 300 winner.

Steroid era be damned....Pudge was my fave.....
------------------------- Breckenridge, Colorado. February of 1999. So my friends and I meet at the base to have a drink after a morning of skiing, and I noticed Pudge at the next table talking to someone. I asked for a picture and he said "not now, I'm talking to this guy". I left him alone. 5 minutes later he got up and looked at me. Said to me "you ready for that picture?" We jumped up and went outside. After the picture he shook my hand and told us to have a good trip and walked off. Super cool move on his part..... My roommate, having a bladder the size of a walnut through his post college career, had to take a piss, and he followed Pudge into the bathroom. My roommate came out a few minutes later and said...."Guys, you aren't gonna believe this but Pudge just took the loudest shit I've ever heard!" True story. One I'll remember forever. image.jpg |

Carl Furillo.I grew up in the same area,and got to know him.The signed '58 is the first older card I ever had.At the time I was buying packs(late '70's) and trying to build sets.It was the start of my really reading about baseball history and collecting '50's and '60's cards.
