Ty Griffin is what set my course for collecting Cubs baseball cards as a 7-year old in 1989.
Since we talked with @Micah_Johnson3 about the baseball cards from his career one year ago, he has added a New York Times bestseller to his post ⚾️ accomplishments, with a second book available for pre-order now.
17 years ago this month, in his first NFL start, @MilesAustinIII broke the Dallas Cowboys all-time record with 250 receiving yards in a game.
But the photo used for his Topps Chrome card the next season?
Not exactly a highlight from that record breaking game 😂

For 28 years, 69-year-old Rick Taylor has gathered tickets from Cal Ripken Jr.’s 2,632-game streak spanning 1982–1998. Now only eight away, the retired salesman’s 16-box basement collection — each ticket labeled and shielded — ranks among baseball’s most notable. Taylor never anticipated reaching single digits, yet he feels confident about finishing.
