Bell, Greg (2)

CARDS: Pro Set 1989, Fleer 1990
ACQUIRED: eBay, 2025

CAREER SNAPSHOT:

NOTES:

Chipping away here at my set needs for Greg Bell, I’d still try to nab him on a few more cards if he popped up for a paid signing. Since I was able to get him on both of these cards at a real nice price via eBay, I jumped at it since he doesn’t sign through the mail often- if at all.

Fulhage, Scott ‘The Cannon’

CARDS: Topps Stadium Club 1992, Fleer 1990, Topps 1990, Gameday 1992
ACQUIRED: TTM 2023, C/o Home
SENT: 12/26/23 RECEIVED: 1/22/25 (393 days)

CAREER SNAPSHOT:

  • Scott Fulhage punted for Kansas State from 1981-’84.
  • He punted 254 times for 10,284 yards.
  • Signed as a free agent by the Bills (1985) and the Redskins the following season (’86) , but did not make the opening day roster.
  • Signed by the Bengals in ’87, then the Packers, and then back to the Bengals that year.
  • He averaged 41.7 yards per punt (2,168 yards) on 52 attempts.
  • Joined the Falcons in 1989, where he pinned opponents 24 times inside their own 20- leading the NFC (on 84 punts).
  • After bouncing around between 5 teams from ’85-’89, Fulhage found consistency with the Falcons, whom he punted for through the 1992 season.
  • In 1991, punted 81 times for 3,470 yards and dropped 21 inside the 20.
  • He’d see career highs in net yards (2,963), Average (42.8), and net average (36.6) that season.
  • After a shaky start with 3 blocked punts in under three seasons, Scott punted successfully 192 times until the 1992 season.
  • At the time of his retirement, Scott was ranked second all time on the Falcons all-time list with a 41.8 yard average per punt.

NOTES:

I knew I’d be in for a wait for Scott. Consistent, yet slow, I wasn’t worried about these getting back to me. He was of special interest to me as he appears in 1991’s Tecmo Super Bowl on the NES with the Falcons. Scott also appears on two set needs so it was a no brainer to get these cards out the door to him.

Funny note, on many of his cards, it’s noted that Scott farms and harvests wheat when it’s not the football season. Makes sense since he’s from Beloit, KS.

Williams, Lee (2)

CARDS: Fleer 1990, Pro Set 1989
ACQUIRED: eBay, 2025

CAREER SNAPSHOT:

NOTES:

Some of these guys are getting impossible to get, so I’ve had to rely more and more on my ability to identify authentic and fake autographs through eBay. -I absolutely hate it.

I had forgotten that I had acquired Lee from a private acquisition sometime way, way back in 2014. I disliked the Upper Deck 1993 so much that I delayed posting it and had forgotten I’d already written up a snapshot of Lee in 2016.

Chipping away the Fleer 90 and Pro Set 89 were two I were after. Strangely I don’t remember seeing these two cards in the wild. It’d be years later I’d get a Fleer 90 box for like 10 bucks. Smelled like cigars, but hey, I knew what his card looked like. Still have the Action Packed, Gameday 92, and I think a Score Supplemental floating around out there to get autographed though.
