I was tormented as a child because Dolly Madison cakes weren't sold where I lived, and yet we'd watch Peanuts specials and be tempted by Zingers and such

Not positive, but I believe all of the horizontal cards have the team's 3-letter abbreviation.

I liked the design when they unveiled it last winter, but the more I'm exposed to it the less I like it. Ah, well.

Couple of weeks behind, but was it a recent photo of Kenny Rogers? He's had enough cosmetic surgery that Kenny doesn't look like Kenny anymore

I had fun chasing this set in 2017 when the HOFers could still be had for a couple of bucks. Of course, my only real requirements for condition was "In one piece, with nothing growing on it"

I wasn't even thinking of them, although that's an excellent example. I was thinking of Major League Cricket (6 teams playing mainly in the DFW area) and the 2022 season of the USFL (played entirely in Birmingham)

I was expecting that all of the games would be played in just one or two locations, it seems to be a common strategy for leagues started over the past 5-or-so years... but Springfield sounds like fannies in the seats is not even remotely a priority

Thank you, I appreciate the kind words! These days I need all of the blogging encouragement I can get 🙂
