Great on the front, even better on the back.

My favorite part of reading baseball card blogs every day is finding new cards to add to my wantlist of funny pictures on cards. Sometimes, when I get the card, there is an even better bonus on the back. For example, here is a card of Rockies pitcher Roger Bailey, squirting a water gun. It is just those kind of off-beat pictures on cards that I love.

At first, I thought the picture on the back was just a generic shot of Bailey holding a baseball. Then I looked a little closer:

The ball says - "Hi Mom, Send $". Did he know that this picture was being taken for a baseball card that wouldn't be published until the next year? Hope he didn't need the money too soon!
