Super Veteran

2016 Topps Archives Signature Series Kent Tekulve Auto /60

You know what is better than having Teke on a card? How about having two Teke's on a card!  God bless you 1983 Topps. 

I can't get enough of these Teke autos in the Archives Signature Series set. He really didn't have much in the way of certified autos since the Topps Originals set, so these were welcomed with open arms. Before I went on my November no purchase plan I managed to snag a few. As soon as December comes along I hope to finish a majority of them.  So many Teke's so little time. 

On a side note I got to witness a little basketball history tonight. The WVU basketball team forced 40 turnovers against Manhattan tonight.  Talk about some sloppy basketball.  The Mountaineers press the entire game so forcing turnovers is nothing new, but 40...holy cow. The school record was 36. 

Thanks for reading!

  1. 40 turnovers? I coached freshmen girls basketball for five years and I pretty sure a couple of my less talented teams averaged around 30 a game (in 32 minutes). It's tough to watch and even more challenging to coach!

    1. It was crazy. WVU is always among the best at generating a lot of them, but Manhattan was the least prepared I've ever seen a team against the press.

  2. Now that's an autographed card that makes sense to me.

  3. I think they were reaching a bit on the Super Veteran designation in 83, I think the guys should be closer to 20 years in the league than 10. That said, there's nothing wrong with more Teke.
