I know ... wrong sport.
But hey, today is Super Bowl Sunday and I wanted to do something a little different.
I never really collected football cards. I'm not sure why. I guess they weren't really my thing.
I think it has to do with history. I know my baseball history, I know very little about football's past.
Before things got way out of whack, I knew the importance of 61 and 744. I knew just about every member of the Baseball Hall of Fame. I knew about Fred Merkle, Wally Pipp, Moses Fleetwood Walker and the $100,000 infield.
Football is just different.
One thing I do know: Merlin Olsen was pretty good as Jonathan Garvey on "Little House on the Prairie."

Right, Little House on the Prairie, that's where I know him from! Wonder if he ever had a chance to take out Half-Pint with a tackle in an on-the-set pickup football game?
