The Official MLB/Baseball Fan Pack Success Thread

[NYY1]

I started early this year and still haven't gotten to every team yet because now you have to send snail mail to some teams instead of email. I would wait about a month to send the requests, I'm getting left over 2004 stuff. Here's the teams I got so far:

Brewers
2 - 2005 Schedules (different covers)
1 - 2004 large Magnet Schedule (see.. left over stuff)

I finally checked online and wow $12 and they sent me 4 of them.. Unbelievable.. I think the Cubs are going to be hard to top this year...
