Random Card Post: 1984 Topps Glossy Mike Schmidt

Nothing to see here,  just a blue collar guy from Dayton, Ohio posing for a baseball card photo.

1984 Topps Glossy - Mike Schmidt

"Philadelphia is the only city, where you can experience the thrill of victory and the agony of reading about it the next day." 

-Mike Schmidt

"Pete Rose  is the most likable arrogant person I've ever met." 

-Mike Schmidt

"If you're associated with the Philadelphia media or town, you look for negatives. I don't know if there's something about their upbringing or they have too many hoagies, or too much cream cheese." 

-Mike Schmidt

  2. Those are great quotes, although I'm pretty sure the first one would apply to Boston too!

  4. He visited the booth when the Rockies were in Philadelphia a couple years ago. Seemed like a great guy.
