Posted By: <b>Michael Steele</b><p>Yes, I second that the Voskamp's Coffee is a cool card. Nice offer on the back for tickets and they give you the cards back. I find it interesting that 3 catchers are listed in the set plus a complete 2nd team outfield yet no utility infielders. Thanks for posting.

Posted By: <b>Zach Rice</b><p>Wow, thank you for the kid remarks on the Adams card. I am certainly very please with it, not only for its rarity but also condition.<br><br>Barry, this card makes for eight different Voskamps. So, I have either 10 or 12 to go (two players in the set were either severely short printed or not printed at all, in years of searching I have yet to see or hear confirmation on either of the two).<br><br>

Posted By: <b>J.McMurry</b><p>I finally nab a T210 Greenville player, I know it's rough looking, but I'm hooked. Thanks to Dan Bretta for inspiring me to collect cards relating to my hometown/State, also curses to Dan Bretta's Cornhuskers who beat my Tigers in the Gator bowl. Thanks also to Matt W. for the Rhoades, via the B/S/T.

Posted By: <b>Dan Bretta</b><p>If it makes you feel better Clemson fans get a lot of respect from me. I wasn't at the game, but there was nothing but class shown on the internet boards I frequent and I heard glowing reports from the folks who did go down to the Gator bowl about how great the Clemson fans were.<br><br>And I'm glad I inspired you to collect your home state. It's been very rewarding to me. Not to mention when you can get as excited about finding a Les Nunamaker card as you can a Ty Cobb your wallet will thank you.<br><br>edited to add: I'm glad Joe Jackson was born in South Carolina and not Nebraska <img src="/images/happy.gif" height="14" width="14" alt="happy.gif">

Posted By: <b>J.McMurry</b><p>Dan,<br><br>I know you were just funnin me, I read that line and laughed, and the first thing that popped into my head was that Ron Burgundy quote.<br><br>I know Jackson is a &quot;native son&quot; and all,but I just dont share the interest in him that everyone else seems to. After reading &quot;eight men out&quot;, along with a couple of Bill James' books, his desirability dropped considerably. <br><br>Good thing too,because my pocketbook definitely couldnt handle his stuff either.
