drewscards 2014 Year in Review

Hey everyone, Drew back here! I can't believe 2014 is already coming to a close. It's safe to say it's been one of the best, if not the very best year of my young life thus far, although it hasn't been close to my biggest year in this hobby. I headed off to college for the first time, and decided the dorm life isn't for me. I fell in love with a girl who I've had the pleasure of being with this entire year. I took up a new hobby in collecting vinyl records of all my favorite bands, which has divided my card/memorabilia budget at least in half, but I've still been finding ways to make occasional additions. Here is a look back at some of my fondest sports memories of 2014:

On January 31st...
Dad and I went to NYC for the Super Bowl Boulevard and met one of the greatest running backs in NFL history!


In early February... 


I also bought some beautiful cards after selling some stuff on COMC.com!


On March 22nd...




In June, following my high school graduation...


I also saw Yankee phenom rookie Masahiro Tanaka pitch in person with my girlfriend!


On July 8th...


On July 12th...


On July 21st


On August 4th...


On August 17th...






Before I Went Away for School...
I got myself a going away present!


On August 28th...
I got a really cool TTM success from newly inducted Hall of Fame manager Tony LaRussa!


In September...


On September 26th...


On September 27th...


On November 15th...


On December 22nd...


Now that I had the chance to reflect on my 2014 year, I can officially confirm that it was the best year of my life. On top of all the amazing milestones I've been able to reach in my life this year, I even made time for this hobby and started a new one. But, that doesn't mean it can't get better, because my goal is to make 2015 even better than this one. I think I've got a good shot.

Thank you to everyone who helped make another year of drewscards possible. Really, without all the interaction I receive from you all, I wouldn't be doing what I'm doing. From my early years in the blogosphere as an immature middle schooler to my current life in college, I can't thank you all enough for everything. 

Have a safe and Happy New Year guys and girls, I can't wait for another exciting year! See Ya!

Oh, and before I put an official wrap to this year,



Rest in Peace Grandpa Walt. Thank you for all the memories.
