Nutty for Nate

A Nate Colbert reference!  Yay!  The Padres have always been my second favorite team, behind the Orioles.  And their cards are a lot cheaper to get than O's cards are in NoVa.  Anyway, Nate Colbert was one of my boyhood heroes, right alongside Brooks.  Loved those sideburns.  Nate was the best thing about those really early Padre teams, say '69-'72 or so.  Just when I was really discovering baseball, and baseball cards, for the first time.

Thanks, Nate.  And thanks to all the way to the backstop for the Nate shout out.
