Last week, I had an epiphany about my experience during the 1998 season in Minnesota when cleaning out my DVR. After watching a documentary on the exploits of the team, I sat down and wrote for a few hours about my experience being at all the games. Im really pleased with the outcome, hopefully you guys are too.
NOTE: Yes, I know the Vikings suck. Its part of being a Minnesota sports fan, and I thrive on the disappointment.
A couple of weeks ago, Toby from the UD blog asked me to put together a piece designed to help new collectors start up in the hobby. We settled on a series that should be published periodically focusing on questions a lot of people have, mainly with transitioning from a love of sports to a love of cards.
The first article is up now, I encourage you to check it out. I know a few other card bloggers are also working on posts as well, so be sure to keep checking out the updates.
Im personally glad that UD has reached out to the network of people around the net to get some outside perspective on the hobby. Kudos to them for tapping into our vast body of knowledge.
