Do kids now adays still collect baseball, basketball, and football cards?

Those were the days man. Go get a ken Griffey and Shawn Kemp rookie card rookie for a dollar at the local shop run by an 80 plus year old man. That OG plug

I think about these days more often than I realized. I have a chest full of cards that I had collected back in the day I restrain from getting into until another 5-10 years or so just to be like, "I forgot I had that card!" I remember the wealth of KG and Moss cards I collected though. I'll probably end up spending most the day re-arranging my binders like back in the day for nostalgia purposes.

Going to the "card shop" was always a treat. The best one to go to my way was a small, dank little place, but the owner was a cool guy and happened to be a Vikings fan too, so I would chop it up with him -- as much as 12 year old could with a grown man.

I sold my card collection in 2001 to help buy a car when I was 18, ended up getting $4,000 for it, I bet I wouldn't even get half of that today

My older brother and I had a obsession man. We took a gander at them two years ago and there was an abundance of bulls and sonics players. Also had pages of the holograms baseball player cards that came from Denny's.

But defintely a time that won't be forgotten. Also recall versing my brother in chess quite often in those days.

"No Oddjob" was rule no. 1 in Goldeneye.

In fact, it was the only rule.

Most kids today still use TI 83s and 84s.

And when I was a sub a couple years back, every kid on in the math classes had games on their calculator.

Super Castlevania one of the long lost gems right there.

Went back and bought these a couple years ago at a flea market, anywhere from 2-5 dollars a game.

He's not a robot.
Just a very practical human being, even if it goes against popular opinion.

Yall just appreciate these things for the feeling of nostalgia more than anything.

Which one of yall here would really rather use limewire instead of your favorite streaming app?
