Grant Hill


It all started with a maid who apparently sold basketball cards. She had a vast collection. So I asked for the most common ones that I usually liked, like Upper Deck and Skybox. But the thing was that she gave me Topps cards!

I really didn't like Topps basketball cards because Upper Deck and Skybox were the shit back in the day! Cool designs, holograms and everythin'! For a kid, that was instant eye candy. I used to ogle at my hologram basketball cards for hours!

Now she gave me another page full of cards, this time, they were all Grant Hills. She had an impressive Grant Hill collection, from the rookie cards, to whatever. All of 'em were in Grant Hill's prime, as in Pistons basketball prime.

Then I noticed somethin' dubious. I noticed that it was my very own Grant Hill collection! I used to collect Grant Hill, Larry Johnson, Michael Jordan(who doesn't), and of course, my favorite Charles Barkley! So I instantly recognized my own collection. It was arranged exactly like the last time I saw it!

So I suddenly blurted out, "Hey! This is mine!"(Oi! Akin 'to ah!). The culprit just smiled guiltily.
