I was a huge sports cards kid, and started picking up random packs or eBay cards a few years ago. Hate myself after buying them now (except a few of them), but it's the nostalgia that gets me I think. Autographed jerseys/helmets/footballs are the main thing now to decorate my man-cave. Once I actually get a man-cave.

_ The Subway thing is interesting. 

 

 - Loved the Jim Abbott collection also. Brings back great baseball memories as a kid. 

 

As I kid I collected baseball cards and comics but not comic books (I hated comic books). I would take the Sunday paper every weekend and cut out my top 5 favorite comics and pasted them in a book. My mom still had that thing and there were hundreds of them. Apparently I was partial to Calvin and Hobbes.

 

In my adult life I collect(ed) a wide variety of sports memorabilia. Mostly stuff from Philly but also a lot of unique things from all cities and all sports. Lot's of Mike Tyson stuff also. 

 

 I have jerseys from tons of NFL teams but not real popular players it's more like Akili Smith, Brian Bosworth, Jim Plunkett, Andre Rison, etc. . I displayed all that stuff in my garage and in display cases but got divorced and now they sit in boxes in storage. I really need to sell that stuff off but my son wants me to hang on to most of it.

I'm sure I'm not the only one to do this, but I keep a hotel room key from every place I travel to.  If I don't stay at a hotel, I'll keep a train or subway ticket.  When I get back home, I write the date, where it was, and what I did/why I was there.

 

I also keep every ticket stub from anything I go to.  Hell, I think I have one from the symphony when I had to attend for a college class.

      Isaiah Simmons: "A riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma"

      By Basbear · Posted

      Reveal- Until three weeks before his draft, I wanted Simmons >> Brown. I hate to say I didn't see his greatest flaw the first time, upon reviewing more clips and lucky listening to better scout. Simmons was shown not to enjoy contact/hitting. WHich is crazy given he played a joker type of LB and had tons of tacks and big plays. But it was there hidden in the slow mo and people that played the game, he didn't enjoy hitting. Given that's a huge part of defenders job, I dropped him from want/need list and lucky for everyone dbrown was there to be picked.  Seems he's found a role or lane he's comfy in and willing to do and it does fit him once you disregard his draft status. Who knows, he maybe the NB for evero this year. He can still become a legit starter.

      Tight End: The Need is Bigger than We Think

      By 45catfan · Posted

      Joly has the one thing our current TE groups does not, really, really good hands.  Tremble has gotten better at catching, but will never have 'natural' hands.  Evans is a blocking TE that has okay hands. A passing game threat is what we thought we were getting when drafting Sanders, but have found out otherwise.  With all the TEs we have drafted over the recent years, none of them have been considered a true weapon.  That needs to change. Blocking TEs are a dime a dozen and can be had on the cheap.  The miscalculation of the front office, folly if you will, is the idea of the Swiss Army knife TE, the guy that can do everything.  It takes a real gem to find a TE that does everything and do it well, so our jack of all trades ends up elite at nothing especially the one area where we (the fans) think the weak link is--a receiving threat.
