As much as I would love to continue posting about how awesome the cards that Chris sent me for doing that custom card 7,000,000 years ago, I need to finish this out. So here’s the final push, and it should be no great surprise that I saved the best for last. 1957 Topps #39 Al […]

After a long cold winter, Opening Day is finally here. I know, I know. Opening Day was technically yesterday, but for whatever reason the scheduling gods decided that the Mets wouldn’t open until today. I’m actually a little confused as to what happened. I always remember the very first game of the season happening on […]

So I wound up going out after work yesterday and it was closer to 8:30 by the time I got home. When I did arrive home I was psyched to see a cardboard box about the size of a hobby box of 2010 Allen & Ginter cards in between my outside door and inside door. […]

Last Saturday happened to be the 36th anniversary of the day that Derek Jeter popped out of his momma’s womb. It also happened to be the 36th anniversary of the day that I popped out of my momma’s womb. My wifey was cool enough to give me a blaster, a cereal box and a rack […]

Here we go with round 2. The one problem with this round was that I realized that there were 9 Mickey Mantle Packs, 9 Ty Cobb packs, only 8 Babe Ruths and 10 Dustin Pedroias. Therefore, if I want to stick to my plan of 9 rounds of Cobb vs. Ruth vs. Mantle vs. Pedroia, […]

More in a these-guys-were-pretty-exciting-to watch-last-season-and-I’m-interested-to-see-how-they-develop kind of way. […]

1973 Topps #1 All Time Home Run Leaders: Babe Ruth, Hank Aaron, Willie Mays I’ve always loved cards that depict more than one player. Classic Combo cards, team cards, league leader cards, you name it, I love it. I find leader cards to be especially nice because if a player is on a leader card, […]
