Um, yes. I'm serious. I'm a West Virginia native and have been a Mountaineer fan since I was a little boy. Long before I got interested in cards. West Virginia has no pro teams, so the Mountaineers are it. The state lives and dies with the team. If they made it to the national championship, that would be absolutely huge. I would sell in a heartbeat. Cards can be replaced down the road. The Mountaineers may never make it to a championship game in my lifetime. If they get there, I want to be there, too.

I'd probably say the same if the Cubs made it to the World Series. Been a fan since I was about 11 or 12. Again, West Virginia has no pro teams, so just had to pick a Major League team. We got WGN, the superstation, and Harry Caray was a pretty appealing guy to a 12-year-old, so I became a Cubs fan. If they make it to a World Series, I'd do everything I could to try to get to one of the games. Including selling cards if need be.
