I agree with original post ….I enjoy collecting cards . Really don’t care what grade I just actually enjoy remembering my childhood. I go and buy the ones I wanted but couldn’t afford. Now I’m able to.

Loved watching him play growing up, thank you for this. He's a legit good guy.

played against him in High School when he was in Alabama.

I have the Bonds Tiffany 86 Topps Dimitri Young Collection--I will not change the label---also have the Bonds 87 Don Russ Bonds Dimitri Young Collection-----Dmitri was a visionary...

In the early 1980s, a single pack of Topps, Fleer or Donruss baseball cards only cost 30 cents. Many little kids could afford a pack or 2. A box of 36 packs was $10.80 plus tax. It felt like Christmas morning opening up a box of 500+ cards.

Kids are not the ones buying these 30-60 bucks for a few cards boxes. That's why baseball is no longer the national pastime. It is for me, I'll admit, as I came from a different time where we escaped to Municipal Stadium in Cleveland. We relaxed which has become obscure.

I watch a lot of sports card videos, this one was awesome. This man could hit a baseball, loved to watch him hit, and I am a Red Sox fan,lol. What a collection, and that Mays Bowman, holy crap.

Great video thanks for the moment 👍

Great video! David Riske former Brewers great!

lol ya. i remember him

Just an amazing interview. Dimitri was US in the 1980s. Great player...from this video an even better person. As a Sailor in the Norfolk area cool to hear about his Dad...wonderful role model.

wow, i was a freshman at Renton High School in Washington and played against Dave Riske in 1994 when he played at our rival Lindbergh High School. They won state in 1994 and 1995 with him on their team. crazy to think of all the pitchers that Dmitri faced, that Riske was the toughest.

Awesome video folks I truly truly enjoyed it. I sold my collection in 2015 that I started collecting in 1989 and it was a huge mistake 🤦🏼‍♂️ so I can totally relate to this topic

Same here. I started in 1987 and sold off everything in 2011. The biggest mistake of my life and massive regret that haunts me daily. I started over in 2014, and it just isn't quite the same.

Wasn't a big fan at the time but I am now. Nice personal touch. Thank you

Great video. I'm older and I remember when I got a Dimitri RC. Now to think what significance it has. Thanks for sharing this with us.

The one and only true Cardfather

Loved watching him in Cincy when I was a kid, still have my Dmitri cards.

Dmitri's a real one! Great convo!

D, CLASSSS act interview. So down to earth. Comes across so old school like all the classy players did

What a great interview Dmitri had so many amazing cards in his collection over the years

Great stuff! I’ve always looked up to his collection that he was able to put together back in the day

I remember Dmitri Young playing ball but had no idea he was into cards WOW. And never heard of ISA but I may look into them now. GREAT VIDEO

Awesome, thanks for sharing this.

I could listen to Mr. Young talk about cards and tell stories for hours

I'm old enough to remember when Dmitri's RCs came out.

Crazy how Dmitri's 548 AB, 37 2B, 6 3B, 18 HR, 88 RBI, 36 BB, 80 SO, .303 AVG, .346 OBP, .491 SLG, .837 OPS in the year 2000 was only good for 107 OPS+.

Strike out like a man. I love it. LOL

thanks for sharing!

I really enjoyed the interview, Dmitri has always been a favorite player of mine. as a REDS fans since The Big Red Machine of the 70"s i saw (Meathook) as i remember the nickname he was called get so many great hit at times when it was needed. a fan always. take care.

Great interview 👍

Got to give Young a shout out, much respect for what you done for the card game when it was in the dumbs you stepped up and became the man Love you brother!!

I like this guys content he is good ….definitely getting a subscription from me!!! Keep up good work

Its not a kids game anymore!! The company's took it right out of their hands !!!

Kid's can still go get blasters and packs from Walmart, but I'm glad the hobby understood that collectors grow up, and so do their taste. That's how we get National Treasures, Imac, Impeccable, and other high end sets.

I respect Young's collection; he had lots of money to invest in cards, and I'm sure that it's paying off in droves for him...

It's cool to see a big dollar collector that's about more than the money.

I was at the last Tigers game omg so exciting and in the spring I was at the first Tigers game at Comerica Park. So cool to have that bat

Dmitri flicked me off at a Reds Cardinals game in Cincinnati. I totally deserved it hecking his beard all night. My apologies for being a dumb drunken fray boy years ago. Great interview!

Dmitri is the obvious GODFATHER of vintage Baseball cards, but the man does not get enough respect for his career .292 batting avg with Mississippi home cooking natural power

I have quite a bit of cards a few graded and quite a few not. I have a Reggie Jackson rookie card but not graded. I've been collecting since the 70's and have a question for anyone out there. Is there a certain category beside the position they play in that you would collect that particular type of cards. For example I have 10 Jerry Rice, 15 Ken Griffey or more. I just don't know how to put them in order like they should be. I had planned to have them graded but have heard so many horror stories about sending them in for grading.

I remember David Riske. I lived near the Indians' High A team when he was coming up through the Cleveland system. He was the closer in the minor leagues, even though he was a 56th round draft pick. Dude put together a decent big league career despite not having any big weapons to play with...

Young is an awesome individual....great collector great guy

Can Aussies send cards to you for grading - Jason? We would love to support you too
