Images of Phil. Joe & John Havilcek came back in the memory bank. All from Bridgeport-played basketball vs all three-batted once against John-what an outstanding legacy- I was shocked to find that Joe had died, but he will live on in the life of a girl knuckle aller and also many, many others..no hot dog in these guys- no quit either-guys today would do well to follow the examples of these three-Phil, Joe, & John!!!!

I am up to 1982, and will spend the next month or so putting together the ultimate 1982 set and will be discussing much of these 1982 Topps cards. I added a link to this blog for further reference as it is far more detailed about each individual card.
