Very funny. Daulton is lookin quite tough in that picture.
I have been reading this blog for the past half hour - it's hilarious! And I dont even follow baseball that closely! I love your comments about the pictures and the in depth stories behind the weird uniforms or unsightly haircuts.
Keep up the good work.
Nice work here. Like MBCH, I just found your blog as well. I'll be sure to stop by often.
Same as FanofReds and MBCH. Great blog!
I'm a faithful follower; first time writer. Why haven't you posted a new blog since Dec 18th? Missing the great writing.
http://stores.ebay.com/Atlas-Hobby Check out the dutch auction! Cool Cards!
LOL awesome card. i absolutely loved the proliferation of mullets during the late 80's/early 90's. daulton wasn't even the worst on his team. look at lenny dykstra, or krukky.
This is a very funny blog. Glad I found it. Can't wait to see more posts. Keep up the great work.
What ever happened to this blog? It was so great, and it just disappeared!
Wow, that is funny stuff lol. I never noticed that about that card but the 1989 Fleer Randy Johnson had the Marlboro sign taken off in corrected version, which was an error that I did not hear about when I was a kid, though the 1989 Billy Ripken was well known back then. Maybe expanding on this would provide some trivial entertainment.
