The oldest piece in my collection has turned 227 years old.

A letter to Capt. Abraham Shepherd from Alexandria to Shepherdstown, which was named after his father.

In order to get free postage, Washington signed the envelope.

Washington’s signature was graded a 9 by @psacard.

When I first got into Non-sports cards, it was Star Wars that really motivated me to collect. I love that franchise.

Christian Okoye had never played a single down of football when he walked into his college coach's office and asked to try out.

He picked running back for one reason. He had seen Marcus Allen make one great run in a Super Bowl on TV.

Within five years, he led the entire NFL in rushing.

Here is the whole thing.

He grew up in Enugu, Nigeria, one of seven kids. He was a small boy when the fighting tore through the country, and he has said his family was extremely poor.

"If you haven't been around war count your blessings because it wasn't pretty."

He played soccer until he got too big for it. So he started throwing things. The discus. The hammer. The heavy iron ball.

He was good enough to represent Nigeria at the African Games. A friend in California got in touch with the track coach at Azusa Pacific, a small school outside Los Angeles, and the coach offered him a scholarship.

He came to America to throw the discus in the Olympics. The Los Angeles Olympics were a short drive away.

He had the marks. Nigeria left him off the team anyway.

"For some reason, Nigeria left me off the team."

He called it a big blow. So he went to his coach's office and said he wanted to play football. He was 23.

He did not like getting hit. He thought about quitting. The coaches and his friends talked him out of it.

The first time he scored a touchdown, he did not know what to do. He just stood in the end zone holding the ball until a referee came over and asked for it.

By his last season at Azusa Pacific he was leading the country in rushing yards per game. He was 6 foot 1, about 260 pounds, and he ran a 4.45 forty for the Kansas City Chiefs.

They took him in the second round.

A teammate started calling him the Nigerian Nightmare. It stuck.

In his third season he led the NFL with 1,480 rushing yards, made the Pro Bowl and was named first team All-Pro.

After his rookie year, his father came to America to see it.

"I'm so glad that my dad was able to come out here after my rookie year."

Here is the honest part. It did not last long. Both knees needed surgery, and after six seasons the Chiefs released him with an injury settlement. He has said he was ready.

"I was actually happy to leave."

But he never really left the kids.

In 1990, while he was still playing, he started a foundation. Its motto is education through sports. He runs free athletic clinics, and he goes back to Nigeria to check on the children his foundation works with there.

He has been working to bring football to Nigeria, starting with flag football because pads cost too much.

The country that left him off its Olympic team is the one he keeps going back to.
