I suceeded too of getting every regular issue card ever put out of him from Score, Topps, Donruss, Fleer, and Upper Deck. So seeing another reference to Jack Clark made my day! <BR/><BR/>That being said, it is a heck of an accomplishment to go bankrupt on cars.The Revhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04573551553863558468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20684429.post-1141323935182911862006-03-02T13:25:00.000-05:002006-03-02T13:25:00.000-05:00Love the site.

Instead of hitting them for the sick kid, the drunken grin on Horner's tomato red face suggests he hit one homer for each 1/4 barrel he drank before the game.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20684429.post-1141316573473163662006-03-02T11:22:00.000-05:002006-03-02T11:22:00.000-05:00Thank god for Simmons for linking up to this hilar...Thank god for Simmons for linking up to this hilarious site. As for Stargell him and JYD can mix it up so I guess he wasn't too off base. Oh, and Boog's BBQ is around 8 bucks, not hideous. The real question regarding airbrushing, of course, is why they never did anything to the Frank Thomas middle finger 91 UD card.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20684429.post-1141314749185819992006-03-02T10:52:00.000-05:002006-03-02T10:52:00.000-05:00JACK CLARK WENT BANKRUPT LARGELY DUE TO THE EXCESS...JACK CLARK WENT BANKRUPT LARGELY DUE TO THE EXCESSES OF HIS WIFE...<BR/><BR/>THE POST DISPATCH SAID THAT AT THE TIME OF HIS BANKRUPTCY, HE OWNED <B>SIXTY SEVEN</B> CARS - AND NOT LIKE IT WAS AN HONEST COLLECTION - THEY WERE ALL RECENT MODEL MINI-VANS AND FERRARI'S..
