Speaking of which - I'm sure Jeff will remember AFL running back Billy Joe. Played a bit for the Dolphins in 66 or 67.I didn't think there were guys named Billy Joe up north. That's more of a deep south type name...

There's usually that ONE family member that takes advantage of their own kinfolk. Sad. At least you have the good memories and he went having them too. Your cousin can't sell that!!yep. I always enjoyed spending time with my one uncle as a kid because he literally had thousands of the bricks, windows, tires all that along with probably 400 original hot wheels cars from his childhood (60's early 70's ) and we'd spend hours during the summer visits build several story lego houses and playing with the hot wheels. When he passed, mom asked if my brother and I wanted his hot wheels to which we both said yes only to find out that an unscrupulous cousin had taken advantage of his kindness and sold all of that stuff and replaced it with knock off hot wheels about 3 years prior to his passing

i need an Ichiro for my 01 set...any chance you'd let one go?Another case of - going searching for a card in the depths of your collection and find something you don't even remember having. Not in the greatest condition, but still a nice find.

That 1978 Fleer card was always one of my favorites with Dorsett being on it which happens to correspond to the year of his RC. I just traded for about a dozen of the 1978 Fleer Football last week hoping to put together my upteenth set of those but still need 2 more. Collation was not that sets strong point.Nice little mail day yesterday. This has to be the yellowest yellow I've ever seen!

I always found that weird also. License with the league but not the players association??? I also noticed recently with the Panini line for baseball obviously without the ability to do the logos and team names but topps was able to do NFL team names before they could do logos so is it due to different leagues or did something change between 1982 and the late 2000's with that. And it was funny too because when I got my first packs of 82 topps football i didn't realize that the logos were on there until pulling and Bengals player, as i was enthralled with their new helmets at the timeThat 1978 Fleer card was always one of my favorites with Dorsett being on it which happens to correspond to the year of his RC.

Funny on the Fleer Team Action issues that they could use the team logos but not use the player's names. And if anyone has the 1976 cards in nice shape those are worth a fair amount. Sadly, that is the one set of those I don't have.
Almost as if the NFL "owned" the player's names...I always found that weird also. License with the league but not the players association???

Most people from that area hated those helmets........Said they looked like "Fredrick's of Hollywood" designed them...............I always found that weird also.

Don't know about 10 million per year (only Danny Villanueva is worth that much) but the guy is an awesome kicker. And to think he did not even play football in college.Is he worth $10 Million a year??? Can't predict the future, but many-a-Cowboys kickers have absolutely lost their footing out of no where in the past, Dan Bailey being the most recent. Any way, I think Aubrey will be the highest paid kicker in the league...

The Cowboys gave him an offer of 7.5 million a year (I think) but he's wanting 10. He was the 3rd lowest paid kicker last year getting around $838,000. IMO he should be rewarded for doing so well the past 3 years. Maybe drop the guaranteed money down and add a big signing bonus and load it up with incentives. I dont know how it all works, but the Cowboys still have Pickens to resign after this season and they desperately need some defensive studs. Luckily the cap is increasing like crazy so there's more negotiable money on the table.Don't know about 10 million per year (only Danny Villanueva is worth that much) but the guy is an awesome kicker.
