Greetings from a long lost blogger

I think it's been at least 6 months since I last got on, and even longer since I posted anything. Starting today that will hopefully change. I have plenty of new cards to profile. Seriously I have a stack larger than Allen Iverson's ego sitting on my desk. There have been Some crazy life changes since I last updated this thing as well. Mainly, I started my first big boy job at the wonderful University of Michigan, I got engaged to the most wonderful woman I know, and I witnessed the Tigers blow the World Series in game 4 to the surprisingly likable Giants.  I hope to eventually write about all of these things at one point of another, whether here or somewhere else.

Let's get back on track this is a blog about baseball cards and all. This card comes from my good friend Will over at foulbunt.
Hey sweet! I was 2004 OF prospect drafted by the Rockies! I should at that to my Linkedin profile and see if anyone calls me out on it. So I was born in Salem Oregon in 1982 and attended Galena HS in Reno, Nevada.
I was originally drafted by the Os in the 21st round of the 2001 draft. I turned them down and was then drafted in the 9th round of the 2004 draft by the Colorado Rockies. I never made it to the Bigs, but did finish with a .267 batting average. That's good right?

In all seriousness this was a great card when I opened it up. It now adorns my office wall.

  2. Nice to see you posting. Great card. Rockies to U of M--a pretty good move, I'd say. Congrats on all the big new changes.
