Going into the HOF today. If you came of age in the early 90's then you probably remember how great he was. I've been a baseball fan for 35 years and in all that time I've never seen a sweeter swing.
Ken Griffey Jr

Will Clark had the sweetest swing.
KGJ had a great career but the second half sure didn't live up to the promise of the first. I still have a couple upper deck rookies but I wish I sold them all in the early nineties. Baseball cards aren't worth shit now.

Yup, i have a couple too. I remember my mother buying me a canseco rookie card for 150 bucks. Prolly worth 25 cents now.
I thought I was a genius for buying the Donruss Conseco rookie for $20-25 before his 40/40 season.
I looked up some of the values of mine on eBay a year or two ago. It probably went from maybe 4grand in 91 to $400 today. This is even though I knew the game UD and the card companies were playing. I would trade my (IMO) overvalued new cards for older players' cards, but none are worth anything. Mike Schmidt, mattingly, Andre Dawson, Ozzie smith, George Brett rookies, etc are literally selling for maybe $3-4 in mint condition.
Taking a quick hiatus from my hiatus to share this pick from Spikes Tactical that we took.
