Hello Friends!
I know this is a card blog, but it's also my card blog so if I want to show pictures of the concert I went to yesterday I will. 😉
So, the concert was Weird Al Yankovic in Toronto.

Hello Friends! It's July 3, so first I want to say Early Happy 'Murica Day to my friends south of the border.
I recently went to Shopper's Drug Mart (think Walgreen's, CVS, etc) and saw some packs of Heritage hanging in the sports cards section. Generally there's football, basketball, and hockey. Sometimes I luck out and a few stray packs of baseball show up
I saw the packs and decided to get one. I generally like the idea of Heritage and Archives, but I feel one of them is redundant. Really the only difference is Heritage also pays homage to cultural events in inserts.
Hello Friends!
It's July 1, or as we like to call it up here, Canada Day.
In what seems to be a tradition for me, I have to post this video..
Hello friends!
Today I found out that former Major League and Doctor Ron Taylor passed away.
Taylor was born in Toronto. He played for 10 seasons, winning two World Series, one with the Cardinals and one with the Mets.
After his playing days, he went to medical school and became a doctor. While having a practice he also became team doctor for the Blue Jays.
While team doctor he was part of the staff in 1992-1993.
He was 87.
Hello Friends!
As you may or may not know, I have a couple projects on the go..
The main one being the One Million Expos Project. The other being trying to gather an autograph of as many Canadian born players as possible. Some have been fairly easy. Some are difficult. Some are outright impossible without financing a torso..
The one I bught on eBay recently is one of those more difficult ones. If only because he didn't play long in the majors. Dave Shipanoff pitched 26 games in the Majors in 1985.
Hello Friends!
Earlier this month I wrote about 1984 Fleer and one of the comments was from Derek who mentioned they would be able to get me a copy of the Roy Lee Jackson anthem card.
Well, today I got the mail and to my pleasant surprise, there was an envelope with that and some other Blue Jays cards.
