It a big day today as the blog turns 14. For Cub fans, 14 is a pretty important number as it is the number worn by Mr. Cub, Ernie Banks.
It was 14 years ago today, December 30, 2008, that my first post went live. Since then, another 5,113 posts have gone up.
I usually celebrate my birthday by showing all the Cubs that wore the number that corresponds with the blog's age. I'm not going to do that today. First, there weren't that many Cubs that have worn 14. And secondly, most of the players besides Ernie that wore it did so in the pre-Topps era. I don't have cards of most of them.
Instead, it will be all Ernie Banks. First, a few cards that show the number 14.
Happy blog anniversary!
