Well so far we have had 3 pages on this thread and were not even done with the first week of the 2013 Baseball season nice. As for the drinking game I thought we take a drink whenever I have a knowledgable fact of baseball that would be like the 7 degrees of Mickey Mantle like what Topps did in 2009. Cause if thats the case oh boy Spuds1961 you might need to ask for a liver transplant on that game *lol* and I am not donating mine for ya cause we be on the same list but maybe Larry Hagerman can lend us one of his. Well off to check on some pack breaks catch ya all later.

All I can say is that I'm glad I don't really drink anymore or I'd be joining spuds at the AA meetings!

New news on the National front for anyone that hasn't seen it yet.

Tristar Productions just keeps adding great names to the Autograph Pavilion at the 34th National Sports Collectors Convention, scheduled for July 31-August 4 at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Chicago. Among the latest additions are two Champion Boxers who will join the already announced "Sugar" Ray Leonard. Thomas "The Hit Man" Hearns and "Sugar" Shane Mosley will make a rare appearance to sign at the National. Notre Dame fans will be thrilled to learn that 1988 National Championship Coach Lou Holtz will be an autograph guest. Also Hall of Famer Jim Palmer has been added.
Also announced are five of the greatest jockeys of all time. Steve Cauthen, who piloted Affirmed to the Triple Crown in 1978 to become the youngest Triple Crown rider in history will sign. Cauthen will be joined by the Legendary Ron Turcotte who won the Triple Crown in 1973 aboard Secretariat. Jean Cruguet, who won the 1977 Triple Crown riding Seattle Slew will be at the National. These three greats will be joined by Racing Hall of Famers Jorge Velasquez and Pat Day.
Several additional VIP signers have been added as well. Former Reds All Star and member of the 30-30 Club Eric Davis, 1967 Heisman Trophy winner Gary Beban, NFL Hall of Famer and 2-time Super Bowl Champion Mel Renfro as well as 1963 AL Rookie of the Year Gary Peters have been added to the list of VIP signers.

Well with only 118 days remaining it looks like I made the group already into a detox center. I think its better then joining the SCBA (Sport Card Buying Anonyomus) and before ya even say it Loqtus I know I am the lone member of that group already but I am still released and not cured *lol*. Well I can tell this summer will be one that none of the group will never forget.
