rickey hendersons HOF acceptance speech..

watch the video.. i don’t know how long it will last.. but his speech was absolutely epic..

“I loved the game of baseball,” Henderson said. “That’s why it was so hard for me to walk away from the game. I thought, ‘If Satchel Paige can start playing Major League Baseball at the age of 45, then with my dedication, hard work and desire I could play until my body said it was time to hang it up.”




couple of new PSA graded additions..

first of all, i deleted my PSA Registry sets, i haven’t looked at them in a long time, i never got around to uploading scans (i tried once, and it said my file was invalid or too big or something, but I’ve never had a problem here or on photobucket)..

I also don’t understand why on my PSA registry I had 2 items listed that “didn’t fit” in my sets or whatever.. seriously? I had a MASTER set and a BASIC set, I know the difference between the two, but how the hell can a RICKEY HENDERSON card not fit into my Master Set?

Anyway, i was tired of it, and deleted everything.. maybe one day I’ll start another one, but right now I’m happy with my photo gallery here..

I recently sold a few of my graded cards to a fellow Rickey collector who is putting together a basic Topps graded set, so i’ll eventually want to replace those cards, unless i decide to sell everything, which is very possible, since i’m trying to raise money for other things in life..

however, it’s still hard for me to resist adding new cards to the collection.. here are a couple that i recently got graded thanks to Gumbyfan and the group submission on CU.
