Lots of numbers about weather, Braves, Falcons, UGA football and anything else I find interesting. I collect sports cards primarily from 1979-1986, and 1975 Topps baseball.

Saw this card I hadn’t seen before and thought of you. It’s a 2020 Topps Archives and there are a few on eBay for around $30 if you want to pick one up. Great looking card.

@adarowski.bsky.social Hey man. Haven’t been here in a while and I missed you. Have you added to your 1967 Topps collection? I bought a great lot of 1978 Topps recently.

For years, I used Dave Parker as my litmus test for HOF candidacy. Now that he’s been elected, should he remain the standard, or is there someone else who would be better?
Kenny Lofton? Lou Whitaker?

Hey @obxleatherman.bsky.social it's Tatis day!
Was wondering the other day who might hold the MLB record for games played at multiple positions, meaning a player played two or more positions in the same game. Don’t want pinch hitters who then took the field, just players who played two or more defensive positions in a game. Any ideas?

In 1997, Barry Sanders ran for a total of 53 yards in his first two games, and then exactly 2,000 more yards in his final 14 games, including at least 100 yards in each of those 14. No one else has more than 12 100-yard games in an NFL season.

A good percentage of injuries when you’re in your 50s come from sleeping the wrong way. Just changing pillows can take you out for a week.

Here is a cool video I took of Bobby Shantz going through my son’s well loved in progress 1952 Topps set. He loved going through the album. To be able to meet One of the players from the 52 set was an amazing experience. He was more than Happy to sign his card #cardsky #baseball
