    Hey, a helmets a helmet. To me they seem hard to come by, especially for the player I collect (obviously soriano). Does Betancourt use lots of tar?

    I don't have a clue, but it doesn't look like it from what I got. But I don't know, because most of the M's games I tune into are on the radio.

      This might be yours:

                Jump on my Links Page and check out US Wire Express under the photomatching section. Some killer closeups of your helmet, including a great homerun shot from 8/29.

                    Bobby,

                    Thanks, great looking shots, and I have never checked out flickr, so it's a new option for me.

                        Steve,

                        Not sure is the second part was directed to Bobby, but having a great piece like that photomatched is VERY cool to me (especially when 3 other people did the leg work-I can't say how much I apperciate it, but it was EXTREMELY nice of them). Plus you are right, the quality is great!!
