Hi All,
New goal reached today! A little over a year ago, I posted that I had reached a personal goal of 2000 Longoria cards collected for my PC. (attached link to that post here)
https://www.tradingcarddb.com/Forum.cfm/Page/G/ID/0/?MODE=VIEW&ThreadID=7173#36971
I have now reached the 2500 mark. I've now scanned in over 2100 Longoria card into the site. I love this site and will continue to use it to track my collection. I've made my fair share of mistakes while scanning some of these in and I'd like to thank the Mods and others who have assisted me in corrections. I have extended out my collection to include 2015, so currently I'm collecting years 2006 thru 2015.
Hoping Longo gets to 300 HR's this year and continue to follow his carreer with great interest.
Anyway, just thought I'd share and give an update, and give thanks to everyone who makes this site possible. Now going for 3000!
Jeff

Congrats! I, too, collect Longoria, but just started about a year ago. I think I have only a couple of player of which I have over 300 cards, but nothing even remotely close to what you've got with Longoria.
I was a closet Rays fan back in the day and thought that young exciting team had the talent to go a long way for a long time. I also used to have Longoria as a keeper on several fantasy teams (back when I played). I only have about 2400+ to catch up to you.

Wow. Super cool. Great job.

Always looking for Blackhawk hockey, Notre Dame Football, White Sox and Bears Stuff. I have a plaque in my card room that says, "I could have been a millionaire but my mom threw out my baseball cards". How apropos!!! Collecting Chicago Blackhawks Hockey, Doug Wilson Hockey, Chicago Bears Older, Notre Dame Football in their college jerseys and Chicago White Sox.

Thanks Guys! Been a Rays fan since inceptions, living in the Tampa Bay area. Now a Giants fan as well. Wife got me the MLB package last year. Tough to follow Longo completely though with their home games being on so late on the east coast.

Congrats on a huge milestone. I collect Longo too, mostly try to get ahold of the few Hudson Valley Rengades cards. There are more HVR cards that he played games here! Fun seeing guys play a mile away here and finally make it to the majors. Brendan McKay is the most recent to make the majors.

Wow very impressive! Half a monster box of one player and no dupes is a serious accomplishment

Thanks a bunch guys!! I really appreciate it.
"That is very impressive! Got a group picture?"
Hi Billy,
Thanks! I will try to post pictures later of the group in storage. Here's a link to a thread I have going on in the BO forum showcasing some of my stuff in case anyone is interested. It has some of my favorite rainbows and runs, as well as some additional memoriabilia and odd ball Longo items.

Thanks again!!
