Wade Boggs Autographs
Boston Red Sox's former third baseman, Wade Boggs was born in Omaha, Nebraska on June 15, 1958. He ranked as The Sporting News' 95th Greatest Baseball Player. He was also nominated in the Major League Baseball All-Century Team and was elected in 2005 as a member of the Baseball Hall of Fame. During his time with the Pawtucket Red Sox in 1981, he played the longest game in the history of professional baseball. He had also won five battling titles beginning from the year 1983. A left-handed hitter, he rattled off seven consecutive seasons where he collected 200 or more hits serving as American League's consecutive 200-hit season's record. Boggs also played with the New York Yankees in which he collected two Gold Glove Awards and helped the Yankees grab their first World Series title after 18 years. He also signed for his career's final two seasons with the Tampa Bay Devil Rays. Boggs contributed much on the team's rise from 12th and 18th spots in powerful on base percentage to 2nd, first, second, third, and first spots the moment he came on board. After suffering from a knee injury, he retired in 1999. However, he came back in 2001 as the Devil Rays' hitting coach.

Interview with John Reichard- sportscardorganizer.com Hi John, First of all I want to thank you for taking the time to do this interview. John: It's my pleasure. Thank you for your interest in my website and my software program. Q: What motivated you to start your “sportcard organizer” site? Had you been a collector yourself? A: I began collecting baseball cards back in 1978. In the early 1990s I began using a simple Excel spreadsheet to catalog my collection. By 1996, I wanted something more than just a spreadsheet to keep track of my collection. While I don't have a programming background, I began to teach myself Microsoft Access, a database program. Shortly after that I created a program using Access that met my needs. But it was not until 2002 that I decided to make my program available to the public. I was showing my cousin's husband what I had created for myself and he said that other collectors would be interested in my program. So I made some changes to the program to make it usable to the general public and started sportscardorganizer.com to sell the program. After some initial success, I made some more changes and added features, and in October 2004, I released Version 2.0. I am currently in the final stages of development for Version 3.0, which has even more features, an easier user interface, and a more professional look and feel. It should be available later this year along with a redesign of my website. Q: The product you sell is software for the collector, how unique is your site? A: There are obviously other software programs out there for the sports card collector. One of the reasons I am proud of my site and the program I have developed is that I believe most of the other programs out there are limited in what they can do versus what my software can do. Q: What are some of your favorite cards and in which sports are they? A: By the late 1990s, baseball card companies were releasing more and more sets. I used to solely collect complete sets. But it got to be too difficult and expensive to try to collect every set produced. So I turned to collecting cards of one player, Wade Boggs. I was always a fan of his, so I set out to try to get as many different cards that have been made of him. I currently have over 2,400 different cards of his. While I haven't grown my collection of him as much lately, I would have to say that I have one of the 10 most complete Wade Boggs collections in the country. Q: What is the rarest card you own or have come across? A: I have 14 Wade Boggs cards that are serial numbered 1-of-1. Thank you for answering these questions and good luck with your software program.
