Lots of Awesome stuff here! Thanks for sharing!

Super video Terry and a fantastic tribute to your Dad and Grandfather. It is so great that you are able to share the stories. Those cards are fantastic. I really liked the photo of the Sal Maglie and his painting on the side of the building. What an amazing tribute for Father's Day. Thanks for sharing.

Gave a video like. Happy Father’s Day! Loved watching that show growing up. Sal Maglie, one great person, for sure. Enjoyed the video and it is always good to remember father/grandfather. Wonderful video, Terry. Hope you have nice weekend and memorable Father’s Day.

What a wonderful depiction of fatherhood. Beautifully done Terry. Happy Father's Day to you!

Thanks Terry for giving us another great video, and a peak in to your collecting and family history. I love the way you weave everything together.

Hello Terry, great tributes to your Dad and yours Grandfathers. Thanks you for sharing and All the Best. I already purchased the book of Joe Orlando...😀.

Such a wonderful family story Terry; fantastic video.

Awesome stuff, great pictures and history. Thanks for sharing your story

Great tribute to your dad and grandpa. Thanks for sharing your memories.

Great display and description of the history of your grandparents and father. It’s always interesting and great to see an hear about cards that remind us of our parents. Ironically the Bombers card is one in my collection that reminds me of both my parents. They purchased it for me quite a few years ago. Enjoyed Terry.

Beautiful tribute to your father and grandfather. I loved the tie ins to your collection.

Loved everything here, most especially your description of the AL Bombers card. Thanks Terry!

Having those pictures, cards, and memorabilia are priceless. What a beautiful tribute to your father and grandfather and amazing legacy. When I look at my cards, I’m always reminded of how I started collecting which was solely because my dad took a bigger church in a bigger city to become their head Pastor. It was then I was introduced to new friends and a new hobby. Thank you, Terry for such a beautiful video and loving tribute. Happy Father’s Day, my friend.

Beautiful tribute to your Grandfather and father Terry! The signed photo and photos of your Grandfather and Sal Maglie are great items not only for your collection but your family! So cool that your Grandfather was a ball player and is in the Niagara Falls Sports HOF! He sounds like the kind of guy who had plenty of great stories to tell! I really loved hearing this, thanks for sharing! Happy Fathers Day!

Great video and stories! I really enjoyed watching. Thanks for sharing and take care!

Happy Father's Day, Terry! I love all those classic sitcoms! Family Ties, Growing Pains & Happy Days. Great tribute to your Dad & Grandfathers ❤ Mrs. Diaz has a plaque of Chicago Bulls player, Steve Kerr, that her Dad bought her at Walmart, when she was a kid. Her Dad wondered why she didn't choose the Michael Jordan plaque but she insisted on the Steve Kerr plaque ❤ That plaque is prominently displayed in our card showcase! I have my first ever Topps Traded Bo Jackson rookie card, my Dad bought me for Christmas years ago. That card is still in my childhood baseball card binder. Thanks for sharing, Terry!

Really nice, Terry. Have a great Father's Day.

Great share and Happy Fathers Day Terry. That is pretty cool that your grandfather is in the HOF. Love the photos.Great share Terry. Always enjoy.

Awesome Leave it to Beaver Story my friend Happy Father's Day Terry and to all the Father's out there My 55 Clemente reminds me of of father. He took me to my first card store in the 70's and helped me purchase that card

Happy Father's Day Terry ! I watch ya every week, but have to comment on this special episode, especially when I saw the treasured gift you got in the mail. I can only imagine how nice it must have been to get family heirlooms that fit in with your collection. Your Show is one of the best on YT. Have a Great Sunday. C ya !

TJ, this video is both heartfelt and well crafted. I know your Dad and Granddad would be very proud of the man you are today! The man who stands above all others in my life is my Uncle Bill. His favorite players were Robin Roberts and Warren Spahn. I always think of him whenever I look at any of their cards in my collection! Sadly, I grew up without getting to know my father or any of my grandfathers very well, but that is another story.

Amazing video Terry! This might be my favorite video of yours. So many of us are drawn into our love of baseball from our dads and gradfathers, and I'm no different. I have a picture of my mon's dad with in uniform, and my dad's father in line to buy tickets at Tiger Stadium. So many great memories with them. Appreciate you sharing this tribute.

Fantastic tribute to your Father and Grandfather Terry! It is really special that their stories continue to be told through your channel! I loved watching Leave it to Beaver reruns and that episode is one I remember vividly. Congratulations on adding the AL Bombers card, such a sweet card that brings you back in time. I have a 54 Eddie Mathews and a Carl Erskine Wilson Weiner that remind me of my dad. My Grandfather was a huge Dodger fan and was part of an Italian American men’s group that Tom Lasorda would come to. I still have an autographed photo of Lasorda that my grandfather got for me! Have a Happy Father’s Day!

So cool to hear some more of your family history. Hope you had an awesome Father’s Day

I have never seen the Father's Day episode of Leave it to Beaver you described, but I did watch the show regularly growing up. There is something about that era that has so much innocence, character, and honesty to it. So endearing that I often wish I had grown up in that time. The book you used in your backdrop written by Joe Orlando is one that I just pulled off my shelf last week. I forgot that I had it. I don't even remember buying it, but opened it and started reading it again presumably for the 2nd time. Wonderful story you narrated about your grandfather and his experiences. Now that I am older and I look back I ask myself why I didn't take more time to listen; take more time to ask questions; and take more time to simply pay attention when I was younger. Now that these older generations that had an influence on us are gone, it leaves me with some regrets. A friend of our family was Bob Cerv. I had many opportunities to visit with him and never took the time. My father is still alive so your video is a good reminder to not create more regrets.

Awesome episode, really great tribute to your father and grandfather! Thanks so much for sharing and have a great weekend and Father’s day!

Awesome video Terry! It was great to learn about your families history. It’s very special to have both grandfathers in the Niagara sports hall of fame.

Terry, I know this was a more personal video than normal but thank you for sharing it with us. So well done! So happy your family will have videos like this moving forward

Such a great tribute to your dad and grandad, Terry. It’s so cool that your grandfather is in the HOF alongside Sal Maglie. Thanks for sharing this with us, I really enjoyed hearing you tell it. I hope you had great Father’s day!

Absolutely loved and enjoyed as always. So cool that both of your grandfathers are in a sports hall of fame and that he had what seemed to be a great relationship with Sal Maglie. Enjoyed hearing your description and what you think about when seeing the AL BOMBERS card. Johnny Unitas is the one player that reminds me of my grandfather on my mom side. Johnny Unitas grew up in Pittsburgh on mount washington with my family and my grandfather would always play football and sports with him in the neighborhood. Happy Father’s Day my friend. Hope you have a great weekend! Great tribute!

Beautiful story as usual. Two grandparents in the HOF, wow. Great tribute. Happy Father’s Day

Great video Terry. I was starting to get a little emotional thinking about my dad who passed away 16 years ago. I never knew my mom’s dad as he died in a mine accident when my mom was 16. I only knew my dad’s father when he used to cut my hair. He also loved birds and raised cockatiels and parakeets. My dad loved the Dodgers, especially Koufax and Drysdale. I have a few of their cards in my collection. Great that you found out your grandfather’s connection to Sal Maglie. Really nice looking AL Bombers card. Have a happy Father’s Day.

You outdid yourself with this excellent, personal video, Terry. A great tribute. What a great postcard to your grandfather. And those pictures are priceless. The '64 Topps card is fantastic, glad it arrived in time for your tribute. As I'm sure you know, the Merlin card you showed instantly makes me think of my dad. That's his favorite player ever, he saw him okay at Utah State and cheered him on in the pros... And reminded us every time we watched little house on the prairie that Merlin was the greatest Aggie of them all. He literally did that every time Merlin was on an episode 😊 I can't help but think these videos will be priceless to the future generations of your family.

Hi Terry. Happy Fathers Day to you also my friend. This is an absolutely wonderful video, filled with heart warming memories you'll have in your heart forever my friend. As for myself, my father passed away close to 32 years ago, but the memories shared on the field and ice, will always be itched in my mind. I am one of 6 boys, so sports was everything in our family, with my mother the #1 cheerleader. I cherish my youth, and nothing could have been better. Thanks Terry for sharing such a wonderful story, enjoy your weekend my friend. Talk soon pal.

Nice Sal Maglie and tribute to your Father and all fathers. My Peyton Manning rookie would probably be the only card in my connection with my dad. He sure loved his Colts back then. But you’ve got me thinking! Thanks for sharing, and happy Father’s Day to you Terry.

Great tribute to your Dad and Grandfather. Fun history of your Grandfather. Neither my Dad or his Dad were sports fans. My Mom’s Dad was a big sports fan and saw Babe Ruth play in person but I was only 7 when he passed so heard the sports stories from my Mom and not him personally. Enjoy your Father’s Day Terry.

Oh Terry, why did you have to tell me you love "Leave It To Beaver"? I LOVE THAT SHOW! I actually still watch it on occasion. I remember the episode you discussed very well. That was a brilliant essay and hearing it now after all these years made me a tad emotional. I could see you writing that in tribute to your dad. I could also see your kids making a modernized version of that essay. Someday, we'll need to discuss the episode where Beaver climbs to the top of a billboard to see if there is soup in the bowl. HAHAHA! Thanks for the shoutout. Sal "The Barber" Maglie. Vin Scully told me about him as a kid. Amazing to see how a guy so hated on the Giants could turn out to be loved by Dodgers fans. That's a nice mural of him on the Yankees. Look at your grandfather with Sal Maglie! Those are great photos you just received. You caught the coaching gene from your Grandfather. Love the AL Bombers card. I need to get that one. What great memories of Yankee Stadium. Did you get to go much with your Dad? Thanks so much for sharing your memories. Happy Fathers Day, Terry!

A.L. Bombers description was poetry.

With such pedigree, it’s now evident why TJMac has one of the most interesting & authentic channels in the community. It’s a pleasure to know you pal!

So cool TJ. Love the story of your grandfather and Maglie. I’d love to hear about your experience playing ball growing up as you’ve got great athletic pedigree. That AL Bombers card is amazing as well. Baseball was one of the main links between me, my Dad and Grandfather and the primary drive for my card collection. I’ve got a strip card of Hack Wilson and a 33’ Goudy Lon Warneke that reminds me of my Grandfathers memories growing up a Cubs fan in Chicago. As for my Dad…I’ve got a signed ball from Vin Scully on display reminding me of the countless games sitting and listening to Dodgers games on the radio talking baseball. He had so many cool stories as he was a star for Nevada Southern College (before it became UNLV) and was invited to camp with the SF Giants. Happy Fathers Day TJ!

Great Fathers day message Terry. Your introduction does inspire. Those sitcoms would probably come off as racist or bigoted these days. I saw that episode of "Leave it to Beaver" you spoke of and it was a great episode. Nice that your grandfathers are both in the sports HOF. You have great keepsakes to view and eventually pass on. Your videos will help family remember you well. Have a wonderful Fathers Day weekend.

Terry, you could be a professional narrator! What a wonderful tribute to your father and grandfather! Congrats on picking up a sweet copy of the A.L. Bombers, just in time for Father's Day! We both have really nice copies of the 1952 Bowman Vic Raschi! I'm wondering if he connects to your father? You did not mention Vic in this video, unless I somehow missed it? Happy Father's Day, my collecting brother! 😊👊

Outstanding, Terry. You are a true artist with your words. A wonderful tribute. Your reference to the Leave it to Beaver episode really hit home. Ward was a character a lot like my dad. He was my mentor, counselor and my biggest fan in all the sports I participated in. He was not a famous or "power" guy. He and my mom raised five kids and quietly placed values in our young minds that I carry to this day. Too often these days, dads are portrayed as buffoons. Simple time-tested "values" and virtues are dismissed or mocked. We talk a lot in this community about underappreciated ballplayers. I think we don't do enough appreciating the dads who are some of the real heroes. Thank you for your Father's Day tribute. And Happy Father's Day to you, my good friend.

Sal Maglie was my father's favorite player when he was a kid growing up in NYC. My father grew up in the Bronx, but the Giants were his team, not the Yankees, though he lived in the shadow of Yankee Stadium. The Polo Grounds were just across the river, and he preferred Maglie & the Giants, who won sometimes (1951, 1954) to the Yankees, who won all the time. He wouldn't be happy with that Maglie mural because of Maglie in the Yankee uniform, but I kind of understand it. After all, why honor the Giants, who deserted New York for California?

Hi Terry! What a wonderful tribute to your father and your grandfathers. Were you aware of the connection of Maglie and your grandfather before you received that package? It’s really an honor to be elected into a hall of fame. It’s fantastic both your grandfathers are inducted. That industrial league had to be a lot of fun to play in. I wish those baseball leagues still existed. The AL Bombers card was a great addition. Do you have a display case that represents your grandfathers and father? Hope you have a great Father’s Day! Any special plans?

South Bend is rebuilding its old industrial baseball field that the teams from the different Studebaker divisions used to play on. It’s called Foundry Field

I just did another sit down interview with Pat Donatelli, son of Augie Donatelli who's the umpire on the 1st cover of Sports Illustrated. Pat brought his brother Dave this time who turned out to be a great guy. Pat is compiling all the stuff he needs to make a push to get his dad in the HOF. It's really heartwarming watching a son who loves and respects his dad so much trying to cement his legacy. If you like to read Terry, you should order the book "Augie". He was a B-17 tailgunner and a POW, really incredible story. I'm not gonna put the video out until after I make one showing my huge magazine collection.

born during Vietnam family sit coms Happy days Brady Bunch Partridge Family the wonder years Cosby Show All in the Family Good Times this is what went on before you tube when not watching a movie and not playing or recording music? Nice Photos , nice news photos , nice 1952 Bowman Sal Maglie , nice 1964 Topps Bombers best Maris , Cash Mantle and Kaline sweet card, Now to answer your question what cards remind me of my Father, My Father is still with us he drives further than me many times over better at directions than me. But he's having problems walking which doesn't make me happy. he can't come to my condo anymore as i'm on the 2nd floor and going down the steps is to hard for him we tried it when he cameback from the rehab hospital a month later. I hope something changes that a Dr. helps him build up. he's Elvis's age. so my Dad is from Doorchester Mass where the Sam Adams brewery is . he moved out of that area in early 60's. to New York. cards that remind me of my dad would be players like Gino Cappelitti of the Boston Patriots Carl Garrett, New England John Hannah , John Smith, Sam Cunningham Football all different years. Baseball 1960 Yaz rookie his 60's cards up to about 1971? 1966 up to about a 1972 of Bobby Orr whatever Phil Esposito's rookie up to about 1971 or 1972 John Havelczek of the Celtics I don't have any of these cards as I mainly have all different years and players from different teams. he's like Jim all Boston 4 teams. but living down here he also roots for the Yankees and Mets . but as far as those players the closest would be a Phil Esposito which I have in my family binder next to BlackHawks brother Tony the family set which I hope never ends. So being from Upstate New York I guess with all of the photos and articles in sports magazines being a Yankees fan makes sense!!!! with Hockey Before the Sabres came into the league did your father have a favorite Hockey team? Same for Football any favorite teams before the Bills joined the League I will assume 1960 could be wrong?
