In case you don't get it in your newspaper, Tank McNamara is a sports-oriented daily comic strip. I cut these panels from the newspaper in 1992. You may need to click on them in order to read the text.

"It breaks your heart. It is designed to break your heart. The game begins in spring, when everything else begins again, and blossoms in the summer, filling the afternoons and evenings, and then as soon as the chill rains come, it stops and leaves you to face the fall alone. You count on it, rely on it to buffer the passage of time, to keep the memory of sunshine and high skies alive, and then, just when the days are all twilight, when you need it most, it stops."

These are so sad and yet so funny at the same time.
That's great! How come they haven't come out with a series called "Pro Players Wives"? It makes more sense than a lot of stuff card companies have done.
I actually have a card of one player's former wife, Darren Daulton. His former wife was a spokesperson for Hooters. Someone I know, bought a pack of Hooters cards (I haven't seen them on Pack A Day), many years ago and Mrs. Daulton's card was in it. He gave it to me and I have it with my Phillies cards.
Classic. And quite accurate for 1992.
Tank! The card company name is rather accurate, too.
Funniest thing I've seen today. Who knew that almost 17 years later that we're almost at this point...
