This Could Be The Coolest Sports Card Ever Created

Thank you to Russ (Voluntarheel) for giving up his soul for this card. It was worth it, because now I get to post it for everyone to gaze upon with the eyes of a lamb. Please, revel in the glory of this amazing spectacle of autographic deification.*



Is this awesome because his name is lord? Is this awesome because he signed his FULL name? Is this awesome because his handwriting is that of a fourth grader? All of the above are true. Consider me among the saved.

*Yes, I purposely made sure that "deification" was one letter away from "defication."

    Like I told Gellman, I just need to find a Scientific Mapp auto to feel complete.

    By the way, some on Deadspin are questioning the authenticity. Now, I will be the first to say that I traded for this card and didn't pull it from a pack. But it looks pretty ligit. I scanned the back of the card for those who are curious.

    And if you want to make an offer. Feel free, but the BIN price is $25,000. I had a guy once offer way, way more.
