Re: Classy franchise
It must REALLY suck to be a Cubs fan. You already focused on Notre Dame football this year......am I right? I mean....when people say that your team sucks, you basically have no reply. You just open up wide and swallow that cold hard truth...Eat it up pal....eat it up. I suppose if I was only a Cubs/baseball fan it would… -
Re: Tell me a fun hobby story...
1970 Bart Starr card My older brother and I both collected cards as kids. I was definitely much more into it as I also valued cards as a source of information and statistics. I started collecting at the age of around 6 so the first packs I opened were late 70's Topps. Of course I got obsessed pretty early on so I would… -
Re: #660
I won't say Barry isn't a great player...he is, irrespective of steroid use or not. I just can stand him because of his personality. Unfortunately, a lot of professional athletes are like him too, egos too big to fit in the universe, let alone this earth. Heck, if I got $10 mil a year to play a game, I'd be the happiest,… -

Re: Jeff Fritsch of Fritsch Cards died at 58.
On vacation driving through Wisconsin during the summer of 1987 (when I was 11), I begged my father to drive a good 50 miles out of the way to Stevens Point, so I could visit the great Larry Fritsch Cards, "the world's oldest and biggest sports card dealer," as had been beaten into my head by their pervasive full-page ads… -
Re: Contest: Win a free Raghib "Rocket" Ismail autographed card, a Notre Dame legend WINNER RA
My favorite sports moment had nothing to do with professional athletes. My dad and a buddy of his from work coached a flag football team. It was in 5th grade, and I had no interest in it. I wanted to play my sega genesis and be lazy. One day, my dad convinced me to help out with the first practice when his friend got… -
Re: has a athlete ever lived close to you?
I have a few anticdotes. I'm originally from the Bronx, NY. My dad grew up on the same block with Artie Donovan and Jake LaMotta. In 1960 (I was 6) my family moved about 20 minutes north to the Scarsdale/New Rochelle border. Quite a few New York Giants resided in the neighborhood - Allie Sherman (coach), Sam Huff (he was… -
Re: Ironic that we are concerned about the wellbeing of 300 lb. NFL players...
Who is the "we" in the title to this thread that are "concerned about the well being of 300 lb. NFL players"? I think that "we' would include the doctor who is at the forefront of studying CTW among football players (by studying the brains of deceased players) and others in her field of study. They are likely: 1. concerned…
