Most of you know that mvpujols#5 and I know each other in real life - he is like a little brother to me. I am one reason he is a collector (and a gamer, lol).

Today he surprised me in a huge way. Many of you know he collects Miguel Cabrea, and has amassed quite a collection for a 15-year old. In terms of autographs and game-used, it far surpasses my David Wright collection. A while back he obtained quite the card - a dual Sweet Spot autograph of Cabrera with some other guy. It was always a card I was a tad jealous of.

Today, he told me had a card to surprise me with that I wouldn't believe. He pulled it out, and said it was mine. I was shocked, almost to the point of tears.

That's right....my boy David Wright. This becomes the centerpiece of my Wright collection and one of the best cards in my entire collection.

Landon is a sign that the future of our hobby is still bright!

Nice on both counts (the gesture and the card). Now if that was a dual of Wright with Ryan Zimmerman then I would be extremely jealous of the card.

WOW, amazing gesture and a sick card.

Any particular player or team you are looking for just let me know. I have a lot of inserts, parallels and rookies that aren't in my bucket due to space issues.
My PC

I collect Allen Iverson and anything New York Yankees. I also like to collect Tiger Woods, Bo Jackson, Frank Thomas, Derrick Thomas, Patrick Willis and Dan Fouts.
