ESPN.com's columnists are admitting it.

They're just as geeky as the rest of us.

As we showed you several days ago, Bill Simmons, the 'Sports Guy', dove into the National Sports Collectors Convention with a great..and very funny..take on the whole affair while carting off some more items for his collection.

Now, ESPN.com's Jim Caple is recalling his childhood with a trip to a Washington card shop where he busts a box of 1989 Upper Deck in hopes of nabbing a Griffey Jr. rookie card that was the holy grail for modern era collectors and kids that season.

Here's the story  and the video.
