Hey Brian, I see your wantlist has some * next to the top 10's.. Are these by chance the "help from Kens" ?
I'm not certain if the next generation would have the same affinity we all have for Rickey. We all watched him play, in our generation. The cards we chase are from time frames in our lives. I surely won't be buried with them, but I don't think my son would carry the torch. He likes Pedroia, and Aaron Rodgers, but he's seen the card world from a different perspective. Everything he sees is high end, big dollar, flashy items. He looks at base cards like they are worthless, these kids don't know what a tough regional issue is. These kids can't even afford the "hobby"....
