Husband and father of three incredible sons. All things Braves, Dolphins and Manchester United and vintage cards! Watch for card give away #FreebieFriday.
Now that I acquired the 52 Topps Mantle I am happy to have made a deal with @jtteaxasaggie to sell off some of my collection. If you like what I had, be sure to follow him as some of my cards will be up for sale. Jeff’s a good guy. Been doing buying and selling to him now for a few years.
@WanderingPotat7 Congrats! I can’t believe I got lucky enough to be married to @SheriBowling for 32 years. 18 years is a good run and it only gets better!
@StretfordPost Every world cup since ‘86 when I was in HS. NBC had a few games but watched many games on the Spanish network that became Univision. Hand of God goal was pure insanity.
Thanks to my good #thehobby friend @ryan_peoples (and fellow Braves fan) for this RAK of vintage for #freebiefriday and some Manchester United cards for the PC. Thank you Ryan!!

Bob Horner and I were destined to be teammates somewhere. I signed a letter of intent to play baseball at Arizona State before I was drafted. Bob played at ASU and ended up in Atlanta my first full year in the major leagues—1978. One way or another, it was bound to happen.
From the minute Bob Horner joined the Braves, all us players could see he was good. I mean… really good. And that swing—short and quick, x or and could turn around anybody’s fast ball. And Bob knew the strike zone. He just did not swing at a bad pitch (like I had a tendency to do a little too often…) He was a unique talent and I was very lucky to be in the lineup with him most of my career. All of my numbers were better when he was hitting behind me. And that fact is not lost on me. I know my career was better because of him.
It’s been a hard few weeks for the Braves Family losing Ted and Bobby—and now Bob. These 3 men all had such a profound impact on my career. I am forever grateful.
Nancy and I will miss Bob and our hearts go out to Chris and Trent and Tyler, along with their entire family.
The older we get, the more we cherish wonderful memories and this past month has brought a flood of them back to us. The gratitude we feel for them all has been overwhelming.
Rest well, my friend and teammate.
This is not mine. This is yours. This is ours.
From all the players, staff and everyone involved in the club, to you guys who supported us every single day of the season.
Grateful for your love and support ❤️
