    That was awesome! Love these throwback Thursdays! These are the baseball and football cards I love most. I feel the excitement with you. I have never pulled a Boggs out of a pack. Best pack I ever opened, was a Michigan Test pack that had both a Ryne Sandberg and Tony Gwynn rookie card in it! I still get excited about it. Keep up the good work. I think moving forward, taking a bite of every piece of gum in every pack brings out the best luck! 😂

    Nice. I would probably grade all 3 Tony Gwynn cards PSA-8. Dale Murphy was my favorite player when I was growing up. He was also A-Rod's favorite player growing up, hence the reason A-Rod wore the number 3 with Seattle and Texas. Dale Murphy hit 398 career home runs and his path to Cooperstown was cursed by two things. He never played in the World Series. Then, when he was up for voting, he was plagued by the juicing (steroid) era in which players started hitting 50+ home runs per year and amassing 500+ career home runs with the help of steroids. So, true clean players like Dale Murphy were cast to the wayside as an afterthought. If you ever catch a game in Atlanta, try to visit his restaurant at the Cobb Galleria named "Murph's". You may actually drop in on a day he is there and get to meet him. He is a class act - the ultimate example of a role model.

    What gets me is JUST before the first two ad breaks, there's one of the big rookie cards, i've noticed that in a few other videos too. Coincidence, or not? :) Anyway love the video, it's the only one i've watched where i have EVERY SINGLE CARD shown :) I still can't see how Kingman never found a job after '86, who wouldn't want that power in their lineup?? Held the HR record for most in a final season until David Ortiz a few years ago. I mean Big Papi just destroyed individual records for a final season..... most likely won't be broken. Ok now i'm getting suspicious LOL, another Gwynn just at the 3rd ad break :) Then ANOTHER!!!! Amazing
