Slightly OT: baseball scrapbook
So, I'm packing up my stuff getting ready for moving in a couple weeks and I came across an old scrapbook filled with old newspaper articles from the McGwire/Sosa HR chase season. There are about 8-10 articles tracking the last 10 games of the 1998 season. There was also an article of when Ripken ended the streak and a few articles of Chipper and the Braves.
I'm not sure if I will hang on to them or not. What do you guys think? I know there's no monetary value, but maybe some nostalgic value to them.

Id say hang on to them. Always cool to relive memories.

I'd hang on to them also. Tell me you didn't have a good time looking back through them. Plus, you can always add to it. I have quite a few articles like that which I've saved for nostalgia.

I have to admit I did enjoy reading the articles and reliving the moment. Thanks guys. I might end up doing something with them once I get settled in the new house.
