Ten rounds down. So much card goodness. And so much goodness to come. I'm oddly excited to see who makes the brackets in Round 3. But that's a long ways away. For now, round 11!

Go Reds.
I think this might be the first time I've voted for a Larkin card in this tournament. Weird. Still wondering if I made the right choice leaving the Oliver off the ballot. In the end, the vintage was just too much, but I think it would've made the cut in another group.
ReplyDeleteFret not, the tourney is over-stuffed with Larkins. Junk era + 19 years with the Reds + amazing defensive plays every game = stacks and stacks of awesome cardboard.
DeleteI LOVE that Wickander card.
ReplyDeleteHe looks like an arms dealer guarding his arsenal.
DeleteThis was a tough group to narrow down to four. I had six after my first pass.
ReplyDeleteNot enough Griffey.
