Trick-or-treat day one: Stack of ChiSox or stack of Astros, mixed 1970s through 2000s. The Sox stack is bigger, and each one includes HOFers, as shown. First claim, first served! #CardSky

Sometimes I search old things for "jealousy" to check how marketers used to inflame emotion. Sorry to learn I missed out on this exclusive shot at Jiu-Jitsu, circa 1905.

Scientific American, March 18, 1905. Its accompanying article noted monkeys as "a delicate little creature, and subject to many ills." Aren't we all, man.

I will probably pass way of stress related concerns instead of smoking related cancers, if that’s not too literal about my lifetime

Saw a cool Japanese baseball hashtag that was all majestic home runs. Posting the coolest one I saw

Space Wars coin-op in a Seattle Fred Meyer store. There are too few quarter-eating games in department stores these days.

Amazing hobby history post on Net54 this week, as Leon shares some of Jefferson Burdick's original Card Collectors Bulletin and related letters. www.net54baseball.com/showthread.p... #CardSky

Holy crap, I've yet to track down the 2008 Stadium Club Seaver, so I didn't realize it has the same photo as that 1976 record breaker card! As for the mystery batter, I think it's Luzinski from 1972 (he batted right) 1/2 www.baseball-reference.com/players/l/lu...

Silly stuff like getting the ballplayer batting/throwing handedness wrong. Field of Dreams sloppy as heck with that.

Good morning from Phoenix, this is The Mayor and he’s not taking any guff today

Every Revs/Sounders match at Gillette reminds me of meeting Sounders Santa there

Happy #NationalMetricDay 10/10! As an American you might think the metric system sucks… BUT In 1978 #Pittsburgh #Pirates slugger Willie Stargell ⭐️ hit a mammoth homer 163 METERS at Montreal’s Olympic Stadium! And that’s awesome 🤩 #LetsGoBucs

Willa Cather distills the struggle of making the “better” choice: someone, somewhere should be much happier for it. We want receipts and deets.
