Why Are We Here?
Let's not get all philosophical about it, OK? I'm a fan and collector of Chris Douglas-Roberts. This is the online home for that part of my brain. This site will detail my quest to collect his cards, as well as other related items.
My collection has spanned more than four years, been bolstered by acquisitions from four continents, and could be considered impressive. I kind of want to show it off, and maybe someone will see this page and be able to help me out.

How It Began
The New Jersey Nets, the team I grew up rooting for because I felt geographically required and because I didn't know much better (it was the 1980s), drafted Chris Douglas-Roberts out of Memphis with the 40th pick of the 2008 NBA Draft. A few months later I resumed collecting cards while recovering from surgery to reattach one of my retinas (a surgery CDR would later have, though not because he wanted to be like me). My first box of 08-09 Bowman Draft Picks and Stars basketball contained a CDR autograph refractor /50. The rest, as they say, is history.
Why It Continues
- Because I'm a little bit obsessive sometimes.
- Because I don't know when to call it quits.
- Because I'm a fan, a collector, and driven to complete.
