Happy birthday to Terry Puhl! His name probably doesn't mean much to most American baseball fans (unless you're from Houston) - but when I started following baseball as a kid, he was a household name in Canada. It was Terry Puhl, a soon to be retired Fergie Jenkins, and that was it.

This is my favorite Reggie card

Tony Dorsett was the starting running back for the Dallas Cowboys when I was a little kid, and one of the reasons I’ve always been a Cowboy fan. He, like Larry Bird of the Boston Celtics, both were number 33. It’s why 33 is my favorite number. You can still buy these 1978 Topps rookies of Dorsett at very reasonable prices. In fact, you can get his rookie autographed or authenticated for less than a couple hundred dollars, which I think is still an amazing deal.
