2001 Topps Combos #TC17 Southpaw Greatness

We're hunkering down in The Phillies Room, preparing for the wrath of Hurricane Sandy.  When I ran a Zistle search for cards in my Phillies collection containing the name "Sandy," the card you see here was the only thing that came up.

These 2001 Topps combo card inserts were an interesting concept, but they just weren't executed very well.  Topps did a better job with the combo cards found as inserts in the 2012 Topps Archives release.

In any event, if you're in Sandy's path, please be careful out there.

If you're like me, GET YOUR PHILLIES COLLECTION OUT OF THE BASEMENT!

Mine is temporarily residing in the kitchen. My wife can't wait until the storm is done--but I think it's mostly because of that.

Lights are starting to flicker in the western suburbs. Gotta go....

Hope everyone made it through the storm OK. We're all safe and sound here!

Safe and sound here too. The lights never did more than flicker. We lost cable for, not kidding, about 3 seconds.

My wife made me take all my stuff back down the basement last night!
