What a night that will be and being a Yankees fan, followed both of these Bronx Bombers before Derek Jeter came along. Love seeing Mattingly and Jeter doing so much in charities and Bernie Williams is a great guitarist in his own right.
Football: Emmitt Smith and CeeDee Lamb!
Baseball: Aaron Judge/Adley Rutschman/Derek Jeter/Anthony Volpe!
Only collect Football/Baseball cards, but I have lots of Basketball/Hockey cards and set to trade for BB and FB!
