Stuff I Am Thankful For
an essay by That Guy in the Circle
I am thankful for baseball, the grand old game. It inspires me and comforts me. It keeps my summers full of happiness and joy. It gives me something to look forward to in the long, cold winters.
I am thankful for the Arizona sun, which keeps my ripped, bodacious body tanned and smoking - something the ladies are very thankful for. Thank you, ladies.
I am thankful for white shorts, which not only show off my buns and my Satchel Paige, but keep me cool and relaxed. Thank you, white shorts.
I am thankful for late inning blowouts in spring training and lazy ushers, who allow me to slip up to the front row, into the $22 seats. Suh-weet. Thank you, ushers.
I am thankful that I was there. I was there to witness Mark Carreon scoring a meaningless spring training run when some not-ready-for-the-big-leagues outfielder momentarily bobbled the ball. Thank you, outfielder.
But, most of all, I am thankful that Fleer hired photographers with deep focus lenses who could perfectly capture This Place, This Event, This Moment. How would my many, many future children believe it happened without you, Fleer photographer? Thank you, future kids.
So, yes, I am thankful for a lot of stuff.
Scoring: 3U

You know, I had this card and never noticed that dude. I wonder if he knows he's on this card?
It could be Spring Training, but it looks like Shea to me.
Is that Keith Hernandez in the crowd? Maybe John Oates?
This card is funny as heck but worthless! Checkout www.sportzoid.com for rare PSA and BGS vintage graded cards.
Fantastic article upon the antique picture. Well,could you please suggest some of the identical cards of the players in the 1970-80 era.
I would be grateful to the author.
Man, 91 Fleer was an ugly set!
Nice baseball card blog. Keep up the good work.
