NOTES:
Well there’s a first for everything. I struggled to find Basil even going so far as to looking for him through an offender database. I received the card back damaged and signed on the back, so I’ll take what I can get especially after throwing up a hail mary at the address I found.
Before I had cooked up my plan to get a Dave Krieg autograph out of the really jaded collector mentioned in my previous Krieg post, I had sent to him and was dismayed to miss out on a response. Surprisingly he began to drop correspondence in the mail around 2 months before I got this success- after a bit over a 2 year wait.
Note: The Fleer 1990 is an uncorrected error card. Krieg’s name is mistakenly spelled ‘Kreig’ on the front of the card. As it was uncorrected and in high circulation, it’s worthless.
Western Colorado’s very own Sam Seale was a dangerous speed burner who ran track and played RB in college leading the team in both rushing and receiving.
The Raiders and Al Davis who always had a love affair with speed, selected Seale in the 8th round of the 1984 NFL draft.
The Raiders kicked the tires on him at WR and return man, before converted him to DB.
Intercepted first pass for a 38 yard TD against the Patriots in 1985.
Officially transitioned to RCB the following season and had a career high 4 interceptions.
In ’87 returned a fumble return for a TD.
Signed as a Free Agent by the San Diego Chargers in 1988, and matched career high with 4 interceptions that year.
Returned to the Raiders ’92 as a Plan B free agent seeing action in 5 contests.
Played one final year across town with the Rams, seeing action in one contest, retiring after the ’93 season.
In 1995, joined the Green Bay Packers front office where he’s earned quite a reputation as a scout.

NOTES:
Getting Sam was somewhat of a coup. An exceeding rare signer, I took a shot at getting him on these two set needs through the Packers.
