If the rumors are true, we've seen John Mateer play his last game in a WSU uniform. It's unfortunate but expected in this NIL era. It makes it tough as a card collector b/c why would I want to spend money on a player when they'll just be playing in a different uniform next year? Oh well, #GoCougs

No way has Messi seen the inside of a chip bag in the last decade

Happy birthday to Ken Griffey Jr! I managed to win this card in a contest from Beckett and to date it is my only Griffey auto. I'd love for an on-card auto one day

Been dealing with power outages here in Seattle so here's a card of someone who definitely never lacked power -- Nelson Cruz. 2018 Topps SP

My card of the day is this Ichiro rookie card from 2001 Topps Gallery - Japanese variation. The artwork is phenomenal. Fun fact: Topps numbered this card 151 because Ichiro is a huge fan of the original Pokémon! (okay that's actually not true)

I'll drink as much coffee as I need to in order to support Cougar Collective and keep John Mateer in Pullman

Fernando Rodney cards are about to fly higher than his arrow now that he's eligible for the Hall of Fame #Cardsky #TheFernandoRodneyExperience

Thanks for the memories Dave Sims. Good luck in NYC and I hope you get lots of opportunities for a good ol' "hey now!" Just not against the Mariners.

Liked the idea of a "birthday card" for my kids. Not too hard to find, it just takes patience. I accidentally bent this one already so on the search for one more.

Bonus points for the player being an ex-/future(?) Mariner
