Yes, he's a Yankee but I liked him. As I sit here, I am using one hand to type, and in my other hand I am holding my 1984 Donruss Don Mattingly rookie card. (get your minds out of the gutter!) When I bought this at a card show (I talked the guy down from $90 to $75! - ALOT of money when you're a teenager making $4 an hour) I was so psyched. After a few more 45 HR, 145 RBI seasons, the card shot up to around the $150 mark! Woo-hoo! Now I must wonder if I can get more money for the clear plastic "brick" that it sits in than the actual card. Anybody want to make me an offer?? I was once a huge mark for Don Mattingly.
