    We would start with one card in the spokes. Later in the day we would have six or more. If one is good, more has to be better! Those were good ol' days.

    I wonder how many DiMaggio rookie cards (among other VALUABLE ones) were trashed in bicycle spokes...

    SN,

    A good thread in the off season would be "whose baseball card did you used most often on your bike".

    Seemed like I got 40 cards a week of (IIRC) a Phillies pitcher named Ken Lehman.

    A friend of mine in college used one of his dad’’s ‘old’ baseballs for a yard pick-up game. He was about nine at the time. Turns out, they smudged the signature on it irreparably,,,,Babe Ruth. Very luckily his mother got involved so he saw 10 YO.

    The cards would wear out too quick so my dad made us plastic cards by cutting them out of a Clorox bottle. I thought he was a genius.

    No - was making reference to "The Sandlot" where Smalls takes his Dad's Babe Ruth-signed ball to the field with his friends and they play a game with it. Bennie "The Jet" hits it over a fence into the neighbor's yard. Guess not too many "Sandlot" fans here...

    I thought it was a mistake and was referring to Benny "The Jet" Urquidez.

    Not really.

    Aggy apparently on verge of losing their best LB - Cooper. He is the real deal. Texas should grab him at all costs.

    The desire to win at all costs knows no bottom. Even to aggy this has got to feel slimy.
