Congratulations to Derek Jeter on his 3,000th hit! And a homer no less. The man has a flair for the dramatic. Say what you want – that he is overrated, has been surrounded by great players, etc – but you don’t luck into 3,000 hits. It’s a hell of an accomplishment and I’m proud to be a fan of Jeter. I was at hit #2,000 and wish I could have been there this one.
I collected baseball cards from the late '80s through 2002. Then I went to college and when I came out, I was lost. There were too many brands, sets, choices, relics, autos, parallels, variations. It was a turn off. However, I slowly made my way back. So here is my attempt to venture back into the hobby. I'll buy a few packs of cards here and there, comment on some cards I have, send out some TTMs, and follow the progress of my Topps Yankees Project.
