Edwin Donald "Duke" Snider (September 19, 1926 – February 27, 2011), nicknamed "The Silver Fox" and "The Duke of Flatbush", was a Major League Baseball center fielder and left-handed batter who played for the Brooklyn and Los Angeles Dodgers (1947–62), New York Mets (1963), and San Francisco Giants (1964). Snider was elected to the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 1980. Rest in peace!

I thought I was already following but I guess I wasn't... amd now though. Thanks for the chance!
I'm in. Been following for a while. Thanks for the contest, a great way to honor the Duke of Flatbush.
Hey, sweet contest! I've been reading/watching all your stuff for a while now and I hope I can win this contest!
Please don't enter me in your contest (It's an awesome card, but I've got a Duke auto and would rather the card go to someone who doesn't without running a second contest on my site to get it there), but this is a great thing you're doing here, and I wanted to give you props for it, as well as props for using such a fantastic site theme. I threw you a plug on my site, following now, and I'll eventually look through your want and trade lists, as I do with everyone else's.
To the rest of you, good luck!
I'm in it to win it. Here's some love for ya:

Great idea for a contest.

Oh my goodness, I went to make sure I entered, and my comment read, "I'm not a follower." What a d-bag I am...I clearly meant "now a follower." I should be disqualified. Sorry about the typo!
Miss ya Duke!
