Beckett Message Boards

When my son was young he watched an irritating show called Blues Clues. They used to sing this stupid diddy when mail came...here's the mail, it never fails, it makes me wanna wag my tail, when it comes I wanna wail...MAIL! When I went to the mail box after a week long business trip, this is what I came home to. The only thing I can think is that Steve and that stupid dog Blue of his were collecting baseball cards...enjoy!

I found a new appreciation for that song I learned so many years ago...and now that I know Steve and Blue were waiting for their cards in the mail...well, that makes it all the better.

Thanks on the Jeter card. As for the Jeter card, I LOVE the 2009 UD Ultimate Collection cards, and LOVE the Jeter card. There are 22 of the 2009 UD Jeter Quad Jersey Signature cards. I own eight...

Very nice wish I would've know you were out of town, I would've swooped by that mailbox for sure. LOL JUST KIDDING!!!! Very nice cards. Love the Jeter, wish it wasn't so chipped.

Thanks! Its amazing the details that a scanner will pick up on a card. In hand it looks amazing. A little disappointed in the blown up version! BTW lots of Yankee pickups for a diehard Dodger fan!
