no acie babie...don't go bitin off more than you can chew! I don't think you wanna get in the ring with the man runnin the show! I'd be the kind of guy that'd tell ya it was a knife fight till you get to the ring, then make it a gun fight!! I'd be dirtier than Vince and Frddie combined!!

[road_runner_1964]

your final four way win was a fluke.

You shoulda been forced to surrender that belt with the buying of votes allegations that came to light!

Ah...buying and stealin' votes is what it took and if it happened it happened.

Bring it on aceeeeboy.....got some more up my sleeve.....

Your "best" card of a current "major league" manager from his or her playing days. By "major league" I mean head coach at the highest level of that sport. No minor league, no arena ball, no d level, no NCAA. And remember it has to be a card of them from their playing days!

Let's get it on!!

[beanschat]

Clock starts..24 hours to post!

[RGBII]

Brian, it's great to see you hosting yet
another contest. There is no one that does it
any better.

I'll enjoy this one from the sidelines.
Serious collectors and serious collections
involved here, good luck gentlemen.

Collect Hard!,

Thankfully the cell towers failed in your region and calls didn't make it to you for this invite....maybe next you Lewser......or cheater, as aceebaby would say. And don't be trying to blindside me with a chair as I walk down the aisle....

[bajmurray]

OK..I'll start off:

Head Coach of the Carolina Hurricanes:


Kirk Muller

[aceecards]

Now the Mangler of the Dodgers

[Lew47]

That card is not from his playing days Steve....

And Bob was afraid of ME cheating

[aceecards]

i think we should let lew in!

I also think we should stipulate no duplicate players allowed unless the category is a specific player!

Steve is trying to change the rules already once he made his play...geeeez...

And Bob was afraid of ME cheating

Uh yeah...your point....

An oldie but a goodie, Kirk Gibson RC

[captkirk42]

I knew there would be tough decisions. I have a few options here. I could have gone with my Name Sake Kirk Gibson skipper of the D-Backs, but I didn't think 1983 Donruss, 1983 Topps or 1986 Topps would cut it with the competition.

Then I thought about going with my Homie skipper Davy Johnson, Nationals my first reaction was a chromie thing I've got from a couple of years ago of a "Fans Favorite" but it is a Modern REPRO w/ Chrome added of his 1972 Topps (the card is NOT from his playing years, but the image of the card it reproduces is). So that wouldn't work plus I'm not sure if I still have it another technicality, the only card from his playing days I found (I actually have doubles of which I didn't realize) was his 1975 Topps. I was looking for an earlier card of his but sadly I couldn't find one. I almost went with the better of the two '75s then I thought this is more a popularity contest than my personal likes contest so...

I am going with the Skipper of the RED SOX Bobby Valentine. Here be his 1972 Topps card:

(I removed the image for quoting.)

I almost went with Kirk my namesake, but I don't have his RC (which would probably be the best card to go with for him) some of my reasoning is in my previous post up there. Plus now it would have been two people posting the same player.

Ill question that ruling

My card DEPICTS the player as a Player during his playing days.
