On The 8th Day of Brycemas

My Harper gave to me:

8 Cards of Big Shots

Here is a conversation I can see happening down the road with my son:

Son:  Dad, who was the greatest athlete of all while you were growing up?

Me:  That’s easy.  Michael Jordan.  He might be the greatest athlete of all time.

Son:  How many cards of him do you have?

Me:  Um, none actually. 

Son (Looks over my paltry basketball card collection):  Was Todd Day better than Michael Jordan?  And who’s Oliver Miller?

Me:  Well, they were Razorbacks,  son, and that’s why I have them.   But no, no they were not better. 

Son:  You have about 30 cards of those guys.  But you don’t have one Michael Jordan?

Me:  Uhhhh

Son:  Who was the best football player?

Me:  I don’t’ know.  Tom Brady was pretty amazing.  And he married Giselle.

Son:  Who?

Me:  Never mind.

Son:  How many of his cards do you have?

Me:  Uhhhh

Well, now I at least have a few of both of these guys, although in my defense, their cards can get pricy.  However, there are always good deals to be found on the internet, and I finally have some cards of His Airness and Brady.    Yes, these are pretty standard cards, but I’m proud of them all the same (and I did get multiples of many of these).
