Both versions of one of my favorite 90's issues (Ripken on back):

Hey Greg,

How in the world did you end up collecting players from both the Cards and the Twins? The 87 World Series must have had you spinning. :)

I grew up in Southern Illinois, Cardinal fan all the way. My older brother moved to the Twins Cities in the late seventies, and I became a Twins fan through him. Fast-forward to the 80's, hometown hero Gary Gaetti plays for the Twins, and I went to school in Minnesota (St. Cloud.) 87 Series was tough, but I wore my Cardinal red proud! I couldn't lose either way!

So that explains it. I grew up in Iowa about 4 hours from Chicago, Minneapolis and Milwaukee and 6 hours from St.Louis. My grandfather picked the Cardinals and the rest of the family followed suit. I thank God everyday he didn't pick the Cubs! :)

I hated everybody on that 1987 Twins team except... you guessed it, The Rat.

Anyone with doubles to sell or get rid of let me know. I have cut my Ozzie Collection to playing years only. To many variations and such to keep up with. I pick up a few of the nicer new cards that catch my eye. When I dont lose them to yous. Also started a collection of All-Star Ballots Ozzie is on. Thanks for the read,

Dan

Dan- Do you have a checklist of Ozzie's you're looking for? I've got hundreds of doubles.

Kevin- That is a sweet card. They really run in streaks on EBay. A couple of years ago you could find them on EBay but I haven't seen one in awhile. I was going to pick one up and now I wish I would have.:(
