RIP Cobra

Glad Dave Parker got the HOF recognition before he died. He was a bad ass in three different decades.

Last year I wanted to get a card signed by the Cobra and thought this Topps card caught the cool factor of the '70s.

While unfortunately light on details of his post-Pirates/Reds career, I definitely recommend his bio, "Cobra." The dude sure loved his teammates.

I just wish they had let Luis Tiant, Jr. in too.

I was fortunate to meet him at a banquet in January of 2009 & he signed a few items for me:

Defensively, he had no peers. Rest in Peace Hall of Famer!

Even though I was ( and still am ) an Orioles fan….. nothing but great memories of Dave Parker and the 1979
Pirates. What a man! What a year! RIP Mr Parker
