New member in California, Go Hawks!

Hello All,
I am a HUGE sports fan, collecting primarily football and basketball. Having grown up in the Pacific Northwest, I am a die hard Seattle Seahawks and Portland Trailblazers fan. I've been out of the hobby for over two decades and have recently begun to start building a collection again, with the focus being quality over quantity. I have been a silently active participant on the forum for several months, excited to now join in on the fun.

Welcome to the forums! Hopefully they treat you well, just avoid the crazies and prepare for a lot of sarcastic trolls

It's probably better for you to be a Seahawks fan right now here in NorCal than wearing a Kaepernick Jersey lol
Where in NorCal are you? I'm in Stockton
