It was a lot like the Chris Davis and Orioles contract negotiations... I was certainly bidding against myself, but made him an offer he couldn't refuse.
I paid $150, but don't expect to ever see another since the team only lasted half a season with poor attendance.

Still a ways to go and some pretty obscure teams to complete the run. My 2021 goal was three programs and I've already picked up two.

Congrats Alan on your new program!

neat dual signed photo of both Brooks & Cal....Not sure but it looks like it was taken in the early 1990's (perhaps a Dream Week?) however signed later on:
