I deliberated silver or gold, my girlfriend thought the latter would be better, but you're right, I like how it turned out.

Bench was my favorite of the day, followed by Fingers, then Garvey getting the bronze.

I saw that not that long ago. Since I'm not close to Virginia, I won't be getting anything from there. Thankfully, I saved some money by getting Dominque Wilkins for free at Crossover in Indy in February, and it's easily top 5 for me, maybe top 3. I've had it as high as top 2 among my favorites in my collection.

I'd definitely get Gooden, possibly Rypien, Trammell, Sampson and Drexler/Olajuwon, if I did go. I've got Larry Brown's SI cover signed in addition to Dominique's.

My next concentration is on the Chicago November show, but I've still got the high of the Nashville show this weekend. It was one of my favorite shows as a collector overall and is right up there with Crossover in February among my favorite shows as an SI collector. I still smile looking back on Crossover.
