I Guess I Can Officially Throw Away All My Brien Taylor Rookie Cards?
NEW BERN, N.C. — Former New York Yankees pitching prospect Brien Taylor has been sentenced to 38 months in prison after pleading guilty in August to distributing crack cocaine.Taylor was the No. 1 overall selection in the 1991 draft and got a then-record $1.55 million signing bonus, but he never threw a pitch in the major leagues.
Fucking A Man. Do you know how many packs of Alexander the Grapes, Cherry Chans and Lemonheads I skipped out on to load up on Brien Taylor rookie cards? What a bad investment. Now I’m going to need a serious up tick in Becketts for my Gregg Jeffries rookie cards or I’m afraid my entire childhood baseball card venture could go right down the drain. Ricky Jordan’s not walking through that door.
Come on Gregg! I’m counting on ya!
this blog was way funnier than it should have been
Trade my upper deck Todd van poppel rookie card for your brien taylor, also have a shit load of Chris sabo rookies.
So you were collecting baseball cards as a 16 year old, huh? Not too surprising I guess.
you’re awesome at math huh?
baseball’s version of Ryan Leaf
So you were on an allowance as a 22 yr old and saving your money to collect baseball cards? sounds about right pres…
i have a Jose Offerman rookie card… wanna trade?
Loaded up on Todd Van Popel Score Rookies….
I have a shit load Walt Weiss, Kevin Elster, and Ron Gant’s. No, you cant have any. I dont care how much your jew ass begs. This fortune is mine.
wait, I’m supposed to know exactly how old you are? What an ego. All I know is 1991 was 21 years ago, and you are old, so i’ll stand by my 16 guess.
i still have a kevin maas “baby bomber” poster hanging in my bedroom.
Honestly bro, you were in High School collecting baseball cards? Nerd city.
I bought the dontrelle willis rookie card when he came out, thought he’d be the next big thing. Now I can’t even get a bulbasor or pikachu for him
Ken Griffey Jr – Upper Deck Rookie Card was worth a mint back in the day. I knew a kid that owned 4 of them around 1991. I bet they are worth 4 bucks now. LOL @ card collectors
You could get anybody to do anything for that Griffey Upper Deck rookie card
Ha I got like 20 of those. He was the hottest prospect back in the day. Think it was 94 not to sure though. I remember everyone wanting this card and nobody wanted to come of of it. He went and got hurt though
