  Neat. I remember the thread last year when it was discovered that it really was Phil Hughes. It was wild. That is very neat to see the stuff before it's released.

  I would LOVE to see him go toe-to-toe with axtell
  
  But seriously, I think everyone should take a look at that thread. There's a lot of BS in between, so just skim through and look for Phil's alias "nyyphily45".
  
  Maybe it's the kid in me but I think it's really cool how he interacts with the board... He made a new fan today
  
  Oh, and some of his other personal memorabilia:
  
  
  
  
  
  His photobucket <- Seriously, true story!

  same here - stumbled on the thread when I was bored at work today.
  
  would like to see the one from last year when everyone found out it was really him.
  
  look at his post count
  
  I posted a link when he was asking where to get vintage sports photos and mentioned this place in it. He replied to it too LOL(although I guess he wants larger than 8 x 10s)
  
  yep - new fan here too

  Wow. VERY cool. I had always been a big fan of Phil Hughes, and now I'm an even bigger fan. I still have nightmares seeing his hamstring blow out in the middle of a no-hitter, but I think him and Ian Kennedy are going to be an insane 1-2 combo next year.

  I collect the elements on the periodic table, and some coins. I have a complete Roosevelt set, and am putting together a set of coins from 1880.

  I wish all the A-Rod and Roger Clemens autographs looked like those! Clemens has a great looking sig - I'm shocked. I'm too tired right now to post links, but I will throw some comparison shots up tomorrow. And I think it's great of Phil to post over there - he posts as a collector, not as a player. He and Pat Neshek have done great things for the hobby.
