I have three favorites, all for different reasons. Great Thread!

1) Matty- He is my favorite player and this card is so beaten up, but I love it. Thanks to Luke for a great BST purchase. Matty exemplifies high character and great excellence on/off the field. Not to mention he is a veteran. Grateful for his legacy and his cards are awesome.

2) Lord Burghley- An homage to my favorite movie of all time, Chariots of Fire. the character Lord Lindsay was partially made in likeness of Burghley and he always brought a smile to my face. Now owning the card has kept the smile on my face. Amazing.

3) Pudge- This was my first card I ever got. One day I'll get it slabbed for the heck of it, but I always cherish it as it reminds me of my childhood. Brings back memories of gathering as a family to catch up and watch baseball, cheering the perennial 3rd place AL West Rangers. Very fun now that they are in the playoffs, and Bush threw out the first pitch tonight to Pudge!
