Default My 8 year old...

My eight year old plays baseball and loves the game, will go with me to watch the Nats or O's or even one of the local minor league teams, but he won't watch a game on television. He has no interest in baseball cards or even the specific players. On the contrary, he watches football on tv every Sunday, plays Madden on the Wii, collects football cards and knows more current players than I do! He even took a stack of cards to school today to trade with friends.

He knows I collect the "old" cards, but hasn't shown any interest in them. Maybe he will in the future. I did introduce him to TPG after he pulled a Tebow autographed rookie out of a pack. That card immediately went to SGC with a stack of T206s. Thankfully I was able to save what is graded a 98 from looking the rest of his crease-riddled collection that he riffles through every day. I honestly don't care if he ever goes to vintage baseball... I'm just glad he enjoys what he has for the now.
