I don’t know what it’s like where you live, but at the moment I’m sitting under roughly a foot of snow. That’s a slightly annoying amount, but after the way everyone around here and in the media was freaking out over the last few days, it seems like a coating. Anyway, what better way to […]

So the regular season is a thing of the past. Now that MLB has separated the wheat from the chaff, let the post season begin. Actually before the post season proper can get underway, we have the little issue of the second Wild Card to contend with. That is what is going down today. The […]

The Mets representatives at the 1973 Mid-Summer Classic were all Hall of Famers. 1973 marked the end of an unprecedented era. It marked Willie Mays final appearance as a National League All-Star. Again, not to disparage his accomplishments, but I think he must’ve gotten in on the basis of his good looks or something, because […]

Back about a million years ago (or at least it seems that long ago to me) (seriously, it took me about 20 minutes of hitting “Older Posts” and scrolling down to find the post I was looking for), The Cardboard Junkie put out a call for all your blank pack searcher decoy thingies in exchange […]

What better way to ring in the new year than to show off a card that I got way back in October of last year that has been sitting on my desk collecting dust the way we all obsessively collect cardboard? 1974 Topps #207 Strikeout Leaders This was the final card that I needed to […]
