Earlier today Short Bus and I met up with Lil Bear and his pop for some playground fun. Cause hey, that's what fellas do. Anyways, Op popped into the bodega for batteries and re-appeared with a pack of baseball cards each for the Boyz. Lil Bear immediately opened his, Short Bus couldn't care less and the pack ended up in my pocket, which I forgot about til just now.
Somewhere, who knows where, there are two shoe boxes full of baseball cards, all from 1980-1983. Round a thousand, I would guess. Now, I know I sound like a disgruntled old man here, the old "shit was perfect when I was kid, now it's all wrong etc etc." The Glory Days syndrome. But shuffling through the pack I got, I must say, things have really changed. Take a look at these cards, and see if you can pick out which one seems juuuuuuuuuuust a bit out of place:
Robinson Cano
Corey Hart (no, not the singer)
Troy Patton
Dan Johnson
Jason Bartlett
Norris Hopper
Ron Washington
Sen. Joe Biden
Brian Fuentes
Damion Easley
What the fuck?
