  • Hey guys,
    Today I'm spotlighting my amazing Mom for a great VR from ‪@the_card_closet‬
    Eric has a great channel and recently went over 750 subs! Check out his channel if you haven't already.
    My Mom has been a huge influence on my life and always encouraged my siblings and I with our collections. She also hooked us up with some great cards on our birthdays and at Christmas.
    And I spaced it in the video, but when I was showing my picture playing football in Little League, my Mom was so excited to have her sons playing that she became the president of the Little League for a few years! I couldn't ask for a better Mom.
    Thanks for watching!

    Enjoyed Brian. She has some good taste picking those legends up. Sounds like a wonderful woman. I’m sure she had a wonderful Mother’s Day.

      Thanks buddy! Yeah she really knew the legends, for those vintage cards! They'll always be some of my very favorite cards. She's a great lady, and a great example to me. Thanks for watching and for the nice comments!

    Great tribute, what a mom finding that Perry PS card. Very cool you worked in a card store. Wow, your mom knew what to buy! Love that Jim Brown. Thanks for sharing

      Thanks buddy! Yeah before eBay it could be a pain finding specific cards, especially short prints like that. She made my whole Christmas with that one card 😊 I never really thought about it at the time, but she picked us amazing vintage cards back in the day! Thanks for watching!

      Thanks so much, Mark! I really appreciate my mom for all she's done... Including getting my brother and I some vintage cards of legendary players. Some of my favorite and most sentimental cards 😊. Thanks for watching!

      Bryon! 🤣🤣 For real, right?! Then Topps misspelled it "Bryan" on the back 😁. Yeah my Mom is an amazing lady, and always supported our desire to collect, and hooking me up with vintage legends is something I'm really grateful for 😊 Thanks for watching and for the great VR idea!

    While I have heard it before, I still like hearing how you got your name. Terrific that your mom surprised you with great vintage cards. Wonderful tribute to your mom.

      Thanks so much, Drew! Yeah, my mom is pretty great 😊. I'm SO glad my mom was surprising my brother and I with vintage cards! I mean, I love 1990 Pro Set and all, but thank goodness she was getting these 😁
      I appreciate you watching!

    Hi Brian, I really enjoyed hearing about the influence your mom had not just on your collecting but also in life. She has great taste in vintage football cards with Sayers, Butkus, Piccolo, Brown, Unitas and Gifford. That's about as good as it gets. She sounds like a real sweet lady. You don't need me to tell you how difficult a disease MS is to deal with. That's great she faced it with strength and grace. I am sure it comforts her having you, your dad and the rest of the family around.
    You're right. Your dad wore that stash well. Haha.
    I haven't commented to you since the draft. The Bears did well. I am looking forward to seeing how they do this year.

      Thanks terry! Yeah my mom is a great lady, and was so supportive of us growing up with our hobbies and interests and did a great job picking out some vintage cards of some great players! I forgot to mention it in the video but even when I was playing little league football, she ended up getting so involved she became the president of the district little league.
      This was definitely a fun VR to be able to do, and I'm definitely excited for the season this year with the bears. They have a lot of talent at wide receiver, and although I was not a fan of his in college, I'm hoping Caleb Williams will be the answer that Chicago has desperately needed for decades now. Looking forward to seeing how things play out! Hope you're having a great weekend!

    Great VR for the Card Closet, Brian! Your Mom is a special woman! My Mom is a special woman too, but she hated sports cards! I picked that up from my Dad! My Dad passed away in 2020! I still miss him!🐻

    • @bearcards3497
      @bearcards3497  4 місяці тому +1

      Thanks James! Yeah my mom's great, and I really appreciate her encouraging my brothers and I with our collecting. I'm sure she was relieved that is what we were interested in spending our time doing 😁 That's awesome your dad helped you get into sports cards 😊👍.
      It sounds like we both have great parents. It's so hard to lose those close to us. I lost my brother in 2005 and it's still hard. I miss him too.

      Thanks so much! It's great when we can bond with a parent over sports. Having a mom who encouraged collecting was great for both of us, it sounds like. Thanks for watching and for the great comment!

    What a fantastic video Brian and really enjoy the pictures. Also so sorry to to hear about the loss of your brother. Nice shoutout to your mom and all the other moms and guardians out there. Enjoyed seeing the Picillo, Perry and Gifford. Thanks for sharing with us buddy!

    • @bearcards3497

      Thanks so much Steve, I appreciate that! Yeah losing my little brother was really tough. I think it helped our family become even closer. As a dad myself now, I can't even imagine going through what my parents did. My mom amazes me still. And she sure has good taste in the 90's picking up these legends cards! Thanks for watching and have a great day, buddy!

    Well done good sir...solid VR!!! Sounds like your mom was a crazy awesome person, mine is tooo, though she never really supported my cardboard habbit.

    You have a great Mom! Sorry about the MS. My sister had it. Really a tough thing! BTW I’m doing a VR to The Card Closet too. I have a Bears card that I’ll show.

    • @bearcards3497
      @bearcards3497  4 місяці тому +1

      Thanks so much! I'm sorry your sister had it. It's sure a tough disease. My mom's was a slower progression, thankfully, but sure has been tough for her in recent years. She's been a trooper though. I'll definitely check out your VR! Thanks for the nice comments and have a great rest of your week 👍

    My father had a really good mustache

      @bearcards3497  4 місяці тому

      Nice! I remember when I was about 8, my Dad shaved his mustache and he looked so different to me that I was scared of him! He ended up growing it right back after that 🤣

    Man this is an awesome video brother!!! Your mom sounds like an amazing woman. I was a huge mommas boy too. Funny your mom sounds like my mom running around trying to find singles that i wanted for Christmas. Tell your mom happy mothers day from Steve purplegt22. I am sorry your mom has MS. It sounds like she makes the most out of it. You actually got me started on the vintage football recently. Not sure if you saw them videos?

    • @bearcards3497
      @bearcards3497  4 місяці тому

      Isn't that great, growing up with Mom's who saw the love we had for cards, and encouraged it. I really appreciate you sending well wishes her way, Steve! Yeah, my mom been a real trooper with MS all these years. The last few have been tough. She's not nearly as mobile as she was, but she does her best and never complains. I loved watching your recent vintage pickups! Great stuff! Have a great week coming up ☺️👍
