Nice intro speech. Entering cards into TCDB can be a lot of fun but also very humbling when you realize how much you're missing for a player. 😄 I recently made my first two trades on there. It's pretty simple once you get the hang of it. Very cool Big Hurt collection. It's looking great so far.
Hi Andy, The first day of school is always bittersweet. It’s wonderful to watch your kids grow up year after year, but it also comes with a touch of sadness. My youngest, the last of my four, is starting middle school this year-no more little ones in elementary school. My oldest daughter is now in her second year of college, my oldest son is a junior in high school, and my youngest daughter is starting her freshman year. Where did the time go? I recently went into my youngest daughter’s room and saw her bookcase still filled with the children’s books I used to read to them. She wants to pack them away now. I would say to savor the moments, but I know you already do. There’s something truly special about watching your kids grow up and turn into young adults you can be proud of, though I up some nights worrying about them when they come home late. I enjoyed seeing your son’s Frank Thomas collection, especially the special rookie cards from Grandpa. You’re creating some wonderful memories. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Terry! Next year my daughter will be in kindergarten. I’m sure that won’t be difficult on me, haha! It’ll be the only time both my kids will be at the same school. I’m sure it’s easier on your daughter to start high school with her brother there. My kids are younger but I’m realizing there’s some books I read to both I’ll probably never read again. It’s those little things that bring me a little sadness. My pretty proud with how he’s gone about his collection. He’s worked hard on it when he can. He’s come a long way with his limited resources. Thanks for sharing your thought on back to school. Hope your week is going well.
Ohh gosh. The good ole days of nor really connected the frustration of your sports teams. Fantastic gestures from Ken, Greg and Jim and your Dad. Our favorite cards of his are almost identical. Great share Andy and thanks for sharing. This is what collecting should be about. Not grade obsessed. Enjoyed.
Hey Steve! It’s been a fun project for us to do. And he’s been doing well with searching at the shows. Unfortunately Frank Thomas isn’t one who’s always available in the bins. Thanks for all the support my friend. Talk soon!
Hey Andy, great video! I hope your son has the best year in school and that you guys enjoy every moment. It’s great to see his Frank Thomas collection! So many great cards that I remember chasing as a kid. It’s so good to see that he loves them now, too. Thanks for sharing it with us, Andy and I’m looking forward to future updates 😃
Hey Hugo! Thanks for the kind words towards my son’s school year. It’s hard to believe school started already. Hoping your kids have a great school year as well. He’s done pretty well with his collection. I’m really happy how he’s gone about it. I’ve had a lot of fun helping him search the dollar bins with him. Thanks for the comment and watching. Hope all is well!
Man that is a crazy amount of Frank Thomas cards that have been made, really cool that your son is putting together this collection! Very cool video, thank you for sharing and have a great day!
Really enjoyed this video Andy! My youngest graduated from college last May, time really does fly by! Your son has a fantastic Frank Thomas collection, the Big Hurt has so many great cards! Thanks for sharing.
Hi Steve! I remember you sharing that your youngest graduated college last spring. What an accomplishment for her and you and your wife. Thanks for watching and complimenting my son’s collection. Hope all is well.
Great video and Fantastic Frank Thomas collection. Your son is off to a fantastic start. The first day of school is always emotional for me. I am running out of children to take to the bus. lol. Thank for sharing Andy. Enjoyed.
Great video, my friend! What a blessing to have a son that collects cards! That’s something really special. Also, he has done a great job so far. He’s picked up some good stuff! Thanks for sharing and have a great day!
Hey Rob! He really got into it last year. Amazing what a team name in coach pitch can do for a fan. That’s the reason he likes the Sox. Appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment!
I realized I missed this video in my feed and needed to go back to watch it. This was so fun to watch and hear about how much he’s enjoying collecting. Really impressive progress! That Pinnacle image of him climbing over the stadium is so cool. If you need a right fielder in your lineup, give me a call!!!
Hey Joe! Thanks for going back and watching! That’s pretty cool of you. I completely agree with you on the Pinnacle of him climbing over the stadium. It’s pretty awesome. I’ll keep you in mind in right field. I wish the White Sox would get back to me! I couldn’t do worse.
Hi Andy! Man a year went by fast! The first day of school is always very exciting for the kids and a little bitter sweet for the parents as you reflected on here! Your son is well on his way to being a Frank Thomas super collector! Some beautiful Big Hurt cards there!
This was so awesome Andy! He has acquired some really cool cards of the big hurt. Hope you can get call for a coaching job 😂! Great stuff fun to hear your son also enjoys collecting.
I don’t think I could do worse than now. Give me a shot to manage, lol. Thanks, Mike! He’s done a great job this last year. Thanks for all the support my friend!
Hello Andy ! I remember you dropping your son off last year. 3rd grade is a fun age, I think I said the same thing last year about 2nd grade. Ha ! Nice intro for the Show today. Very Cool FT Collage. I have a 1959 World Series White Sox Show coming up on Pitcher Turk Lown. There is no cussing or nudity, kid friendly. Ha ! Turk liked turkey as a kid. Like most of my Shows its about perseverance, which is always good for kids to hear. The episode ends with Ted Williams & the passing of time. I didn’t remember you guys were chi sox fans. Cool how that worked out. I like that saying "pure way" to collect. That's so nice of the community to send such nice gifts. Nice to have a cool Gramps. C ya !
Hey Tom! Third grade is when it academically fell apart for me, haha. Thankfully he’s much more studious than I’ve ever been. About time you put out a show without nudity and cussing, haha!! Looking forward to your episode. I’m really not a White Sox fan. Just a Cardinals fan. His baseball team last year was the white Sox so that’s how it started. Thankfully it wasn’t the Cubs. Thanks for always leaving such a great comment. Tell Otis “hey”!
Hello Andy, wow your son have already a nice collection about Frank Thomas. So far so good about the 99 % others F Thomas cards...😀. Jerry Reinsdorf needs also a french language traductor for one of his sports franchises ?...😄. Have a great day Andy and Happy Collecting.
Hey Fabien! I promise you if I get the White Sox job I’ll hire you as a coach! Although you may have better luck in the NBA with all French players. 😀. Thanks for watching and the kind words towards my son’s collections. Always thankful for your time. Hope all is well my friend!
Welcome to the 1%😂! Player collecting is the best! You have to be a little crazy but you get a full spectrum of what the hobby was going through at the time. Is he limiting any years?
Hey Allen. No he’s got some 2023 Frank Thomas mixed in there. Just anything and everything at this point. It has been fun player collecting. Thanks for always watching and all your support!
Terrific job on the narration. A very easy listen and a pleasurable one. I believe I have some Frank Thomas Beckett's that I would be happy to send your way to add to the collection. Email me off line if you don't mind. Thanks.
Thanks, Drew. Always appreciate your support. That’s very nice of you. I don’t know your email though. I didn’t see it listed on your page. I’m probably too dumb to find it, haha.
Awesome table top showcase of The Big Hurt! Starting to amass into a super collector. Hope you had a great summer.
A really fun collection. I was a big Frank Thomas fan as a kid. Especially after Kirby Puckett had to retire, and I needed a new player.
Nice intro speech. Entering cards into TCDB can be a lot of fun but also very humbling when you realize how much you're missing for a player. 😄
I recently made my first two trades on there. It's pretty simple once you get the hang of it.

Dude! Love it! Thomas is still one of my faves! Thanks for sharing! 🤛🏻
It’s hard not to like The Big Hurt! Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Much appreciated!
The Big Hurt 💥

Awesome Thomas collection! I just started a Kirby Puckett playing days collection, for my retirement project.
Thanks. He’s done a nice job with it. Thanks, Scott.
That pretty cool. He is off to a great start with the Thomas PC.
Thank you. He’s doing pretty well with it. Thanks for watching and the comment!
