Trea Turner is really good at baseball. I am really good at wiffleball when the people I am playing against have been drinking.
Trea Turner is on the Washington Nationals. Sometimes I watch the Washington Nationals on television.
Trea Turner was once a student at NC State. I was also once a student at NC State. I graduated, not sure about Trea, but I might have that over him. Maybe.
Sorry, I am not scanning my degree for this post.
I did scan a pair of Trea Turner cards for the post that I picked up because I did go to NC State. I borrowed the title from a speech given by another former student at NC State.....
I am hoping that maybe Zach Galifianakis could have Trea Turner on Between Two Ferns in the near future.
On to the baseball cards.....
On to the baseball cards.....
I actually picked up both of these cards from a card shop in St. Louis, RBI Cru 7, awhile back. The store was not there when I last lived in the Lou, but I actually picked these up after they posted a picture of them on Twitter. I need to get to that shop one day soon, hopefully it's near an Imo's since we do not have provel cheese in Raleigh.
First up.
This is a Tier One autograph of Turner numbered out of 25. I love these cards when they have the gold and silver signatures. It's a little busy with the granite like design on the bottom of the card, but overall this is a very nice card of the former Wolfpacker. The card is serial numbered out of 25.
Next.
Also a Topps Tier One autograph, this card is serial numbered out of 250. The card has a little bit cleaner look with the lighter colored marble pattern on the bottom of the card and the signature in blue ink. While Turner has a really simple signature, he is really good about the consistency on his 'graphs. The autograph on both cards is roughly the same.
Overall, I am thrilled to add these two cards to my growing collection of Trea Turner autographs.
Oh, and while we are here tonight.... Go State! Beat the Illini.
I kind of wish that I went to a college big enough to have produced some notable sports alumni - I'm always quite jealous of these sorts of collections whenever I see them. Oh well, I guess a degree is still a nice consolation prize.
