And then I went to look for a specific card. This one.
1934 Batter-Up Eric McNair (card # 61) |
2010 Topps Allen & Ginter Framed Mini Relic Adam Dunn (card # AGR-AD) |
In other news I went by one of my local card shops (yes, I have multiple), and picked up a few more 1970 Topps Supers. A theme for the week might have been found.
I also took Caroline by to the University of Tennessee campus. For those readers that are new to my blog, Caroline is my daughter. She likes sports. Of all kinds, although recently she's been taking a shine to hockey.
Here are a few photos from today.
Back in November of last year a statue of Pat Summit was unveiled just across from Thomson Boling Arena.
Caroline standing in awe of a great coach.
UT was supposed to play host to Nebraska-Omaha and Purdue for a miniature tournament today and tomorrow. We, along with other parts of the country, got slammed with snow, ice and general weather badness. Travel delays and concerns for the field led Nebraska-Omaha to withdraw and Purdue to delay. Today's game was delayed until Monday. I'll have to wait a bit longer to watch some live baseball.
We watched about 10 minutes of batting and fielding practice before the coaches called the team in. Caroline said she wants to return. So do I.
Until then I'll keep looking for Ed McNair.
Those batter up cards aren't easy to find or cheap. I hope you find it
ReplyDeleteThat Pat Summitt statue photo is pretty cool. You should print it and send it to her and see if she'll sign it.
ReplyDeleteI have two Hudlins for the Indians. One B/W and one red. Red one has 1/4" trimmed off the bottom !
ReplyDeleteHope you find yours !
