3. Added 2008 Upper Deck Goudey.
4. Added 2002 Donruss Originals. I like the concept.
5. Started looking at some junk-era food issues: 1987 Kraft, 1988-92 Bazooka, 1990-94 Post, 1993 Hostess. Shrug. I like what I like.

PLAYERS I COLLECT
A. Players with family names. BROCKETT, FITZGERALD, POE and especially SHIRLEY. The big ones in the UV years are Bob Shirley, who had cards from 1978-1987, then Senior League and coaching cards. And Mike Fitzgerald (1984-93). Al Shirley (1991-98) never made the bigs, and Steve Shirley played almost entirely in the minors (+82 Dodgers), so he has a few cards out there. Tommy Shirley (2010-16)... Dontari Poe (FB)...
B. Players born the same day as me, my wife or my kids.
