  • I keep telling you

    Last week, I showed off some of my small cards. This week, I'm going to show off my Little Man PC.


    Confused? Let me clarify. My parents' genes blessed me with my 5'2" height, so I've always admired the "little man" in sports. However, my collection didn't take shape until a few years ago after I watched Rudy with my class.


    After waiting around for the right time and the right price, I eventually picked up this 16"x20" autographed Rudy Ruettiger photo from Steiner Sports:





    From there... the collection slowly grew into this:

    Rudy Ruettiger

    Notre Dame Fighting Irish, Defensive End - 5'6"




    Maurice Jones-Drew

    Jacksonville Jaguars, Running Back - 5'7"




    Barry Sanders

    Detroit Lions, Running Back - 5'8"




    Brian Gionta

    New Jersey Devils, Right Wing - 5'7"




    Darren Pang

    Chicago Blackhawks, Goalie - 5'5"


    Martin St. Louis
    Tampa Bay Lightning, Right Winger - 5'8"



    Eddie Gaedel

    St. Louis Browns, Pinch Hitter - 3'7"




    Kirby Puckett

    Minnesota Twins, Centerfielder - 5'8"




    Joe Morgan

    San Francisco Giants, Second Basemen - 5'7"




    Muggsy Bogues

    Charlotte Hornets, Point Guard - 5'3"




    Spud Webb

    Atlanta Hawks, Point Guard - 5'6"




    I'm looking forward to adding more autographs of famous athletes who didn't let their size keep them from achieving greatness.

    That's where you come in...


    Who else should should be included in my Little Man PC?

    I'm setting the height limit at 5'8" and would prefer to collect athletes who have made a name for themselves. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.


    Happy Monday and sayonara!

        Cool collection.
        Tim Raines is one that comes to mind. Small guy, Hall of Fame caliber career.

        Chuck Knoblauch was also a pretty decent small player.

        Dustin Pedroia, Wes Welker, Danny Woodhead, Earl Boykins, Bip Roberts, Matt Stairs, are a few others off the top of my head.
