Hi,
Just read V-cubed thread. Funny thing I have been thinking about something similar for a while now. I am sure we all like different collecting ideas. For the lack of better names
THE STRANGE, WEIRD and ODD BASEBALL CARD TEAMS
10 Teams
"Strange Names" ex. Dick Pole
"The Obsceneties" ex. Billy Ripken
"The Hairy Faces" wild moustasches and beards
" Wild Hair" - ex. Oscar Gamble
"Big Gloves, Big Bats" - ex. Kirby Puckett
"The Nerds" - any goofy card
"The Mean and Ugly" - ex. Al Hrabovsky
"You Can't Play With These" - Canseco with a Shovel in dugout
"The Hats" - ex. Bip Roberts
"The Four Eyes" - any strange looking wearer of glasses
I noticed that many sports writers and journalists had fun with these types of cards.
To make it easier, any help, please list name, year, card# and company..and anything else.
This should be fun, everybody join in. It would be great if we could build these teams covering all positions.
Thanks, Bob [BOBSCARDZ]
