Am I a Geek because I love Excel ?

So, I have a love for Excel and some would even call me an Excel geek. So why not combine the love for baseball cards with my love for Excel !! It took a lot of work (and some tips from Jon at Community Gum) and weeks of tweaking but I finally have my Glavine collection in Excel. So how is this fun you may ask ? Well, I now finally have a good overview of which cards I have and which cards are missing and the fun part is that I can do some data-mining as well !!

Here's the my first summary !!




Not sure about you but I think this is great, love to have some "control" over my collection and be able to track my progress ! Some other observations:

- There are more than 6,000 different Glavine cards !!
- I only have less 20% of these so 80% more to go !!
- I suspect the Printing Plate overview is not complete yet so some work to do there !!
- A 1,000 1/1's...how can one ever complete this :-))

All in all, will kepp everyone posted with my progress !! Step 2 is now to build one for Kershaw and Blyleven and if I have energy left maybe do one for Sabathia, Rivera and Rizzo as well.

This hobby is hard work but that's fine as long as we are having fun !! Thanks for visiting my blog today !!
