So you say you have an over-riding passion to emulate U.L. Washington? Well, you're in luck. Jose Cardenal's 1980 ALCS ring and his 1980 Royals jersey are being auctioned off at eBay by Cardenal for the mere price of $13 K.

Of course, don't buy the description that designates it a World Series ring. As a Phils fan, I think I remember pretty well who won the big enchilada that season. Sheez, one championship in a 121 seasons and they want to take it away. The Royals even acquired Phils castoff Cardenal midseason and he was used in right against them in the Series.

(By the way, if you want Cardenal's autograph, apparently he lives in Phoenix. And be prepared to pony up a fin for the honor. He seems to be strapped for cash.)
