I found I lost my way the most when I collected what I *think* is a neat idea.
I've always liked Soriano. So, I *thought* it would be neat to collect other 30-30 guys. It was fun for a while, but in the end I *felt* nothing for most of the cards I'd collected and moved them back to the FT section of my bucket.
On the other hand, at a time when I collected absolutely NO football at all I saw a Lawrence Taylor auto in someone's bucket. It reminded me so much of watching football with my father that I obsessed about it until I badgered the poor TCCer into trading it to me. I haven't looked back, and my LT collection is now - by far - both the largest and most fulfilling part of my collection....because of the way I *feel* about it.
Lately, I find I've been gravitating towards Doc Gooden and Darryl Strawberry cards for the exact same reason. When my father was still alive, the Mets used to drive him nuts. He loved to stress over them. The only time I ever saw him bleed was when he jumped up out of his seat at a Mets game and scrape the heck out of his leg on the seat.
I have a lot of feelings for those collections. My others? I like a lot of them, but they're slowly making their way to my FT bucket in favor of those other guys. |

One guess which one I like... If you still have the Gooden from back in the day, maybe we could work out a package deal. Shoot me a PM if you see anything for LT or for both. |
