At about 6 you started to really follow sports, really? All I remember at that age is that I existed.

Yep! I remember checking out a book at the library, a kids guide about football that was really neatly illustrated. Described rules, terms, basic formations and strategy, etc. Down to stuff like how offensive linemen were allowed to block when run blocking vs pass blocking. I can't remember the title of that book, it would be a pretty good beginners book even today I think for anyone wanting to learn, though it would have to be updated of course to reflect current trends.

First pro sports related memory for me was probably Jordan vs Magic when I was 9. I'm sure watched NFL & NBA games when I was younger but I didn't really get into until middle school where I watched ESPN all day and everyone would ask who won what since I became a human sports ticket.

Now your bringing back memories of Donruss cards and stale gum. I remember Ken Griffey playing minor league ball over here in San Bernardino for the Spirit.

idk i dont pay attention to much to my outside surroundings. i heard the crash last night but was too lazy to investigate and just happened to open my back door as I was putting my food in the oven seen the mess.

BFF

 

[brentech]

I remember trading a neighbor a Roberto Alomar card for Ken Griffey Jr's rookie tops card. Few days later he wanted his card back. EAD
Still have the card!


Doesn't matter anyways. My uncle used to write books about memorabilia and has rooms full of autographed everything's. I have signed bb's from KG Jr, Willie Mays, Hank Aaron, and Cal Ripkin Jr in my office.

Now he writes books on straight sports history. Mostly local to New York State.

 

[Himynameischris]

Sounds good, you know I dated a packer fan once, you people are alright

I remember loving the Lakers and the Steelers making me feel bad when I was six.

There was not much to do in the early 80s.

[DeaconKnowledge]

Sucks2Suck

Thank god you're in the AFC or garbage ass LeBeau might find a way to lose 17.

[jbug617]

The whole point of the show is doing missions (like make a car out of food).

Also their act is toned down.

Because fuck it thats why. I mean hell there is so many fake reality shows spamming our tvs already. Why not go american and show off 30000 calories cooks!

All 49ers fans remember the shame of Cortez

i believe he still holds the niners record for consecutive made FG's to start a career with 12. then he just fell off the planet. still, i would take cortez 8 days a week over owen pochman. just typing his name out makes me want to nerd rage

 

[Syrinx]

This is all that's going through my mind right now.

 

[brentech]

when i looked up who he was, the 4th or 5th link down, was "the 7 worst 49ers kickers in franchise history"
or something to that effect

 

[Konka]

Dude, you've gotta totally become Dota or you are worthless. Everyone knows Dota people are by faaaaaar the coolest.

 

[unknownstranger]

Only thing I have signed is a football signed by (I think) a bunch of training camp scrubs from about a decade ago.

 

[Frozenprince]

Might not be much but I have a signed ball and banner from A.J. Burnett when he played High A SS ball here in 99'.
