I too shared similar emotions. Was watching the game on YES Network and everything was all good. Started thinking when Joe would bring Mo in. The call game and Mo came out. All was still gravy. Wasn't until I saw Andy & Jeter come out ...That brought out laughter...saw Jeter mouth out "It's time to go" Mariano Hugged ANDY and BOOM Mo's knees BUCKELED at that moment I realized it. THE SANDMAN. THE MAN that broke more bats in history of the game showed us that FOR A DAY THERE COULD BE CRYING IN BASEBALL. Raw Emotions from a guy that rarely showed any. Was a great moment to take in.. Not just as a Yankees fan but a BASEBALL fan. 3 great guys sharing that moment in time on the mound at Yankee Stadium and if you get a chance to go back and watch it. check out the face of JR Murphy. he will forever be tied into history as the last guy to catch a pitch from Mariano Rivera and Matt Daley was the guy who relieved him on his last day.Well said, my Yankee Bro! The only thing missing? ... They should've had Posada there, too! ![[Image: Ch4Mt.png]](http://i.imgur.com/Ch4Mt.png) I guess if I saved used tinfoil and used tea bags instead of old comic books and old baseball cards, the difference between a crazed hoarder and a savvy collector is in that inherent value. 
Wow! He's got a great auto! So rare to see a modern player who's auto doesn't look like a sneeze!

Mariano's auto is right up there with Harmon Killebrew's and Andre Dawson's extremely nice autos! IMO Currently liking Shelby Miller and Brett Jack .... Um, I meant Brett Jackson
 FYI: Mariano's MLB signed ball is currently topping out at $350 on Steiner. Wow! I guess if I saved used tinfoil and used tea bags instead of old comic books and old baseball cards, the difference between a crazed hoarder and a savvy collector is in that inherent value. 
I have these for trade and also a YSL not pictured.. but my wants are very Jose Canseco specific

All about the Benjamins, etc. He's a great source of Yankee memorabilia (i.e. My Yankee Stadium Chair) but you pay for the convenience.

Just pulled from a fresh box last month. Thinking about grading, though it would mainly be for the slab since it's never leaving my PC. Worth the grade?
