This is a blog about the annoyances of life and the little things that make us go, "STOP IT". Sports cards are one of my plentiful hobby addictions and it will also be one of the many items that are discussed on this blog. Feel free to leave your opinion and thoughts.

Cool Vintage Card of the Week
Earl Battey:
Battey was a four time All-Star catcher and a key player on the Minnesota Twins 1965 World Series team. A great fielder, Battey won three Gold Glove Awards. Battey received the most votes by an American Leaguer for the 1965 All-Star Game.
On August 26, 1962 Battey caught Jack Kralick's no-hitter.
