Elliptical Man has been running some giveaways on his blog. On Labor Day he offered up a stack of players with occupational last (or first) names. Less than ten days later I received a bubble mailer full of football cards just for commenting. Let's take a look at these laborers:
Taylors
Marshalls
Barbers and a Hunter
Butlers and a Baker (bonus points for the Packer parallel)
Coopers and a Fletcher
Mr. Monk
...and the rest. One of these guys was a first overall draft pick. Can you name which one, without peeking at Pro Football Reference?
Brendan also sent some 1987 Topps cards for my nascent set build. He specifically said not to send him anything in return so I will respect his request -- for now. Thanks for the cards!
I will be back in Connecticut tomorrow, saying goodbye to the house I grew up in. I'll try to take some pics for posterity and/or a blog post.
Thanks for reading, and have a great weekend!
