Pack Clashing, Opening Kick Style
September 11th, 2011 by slangon

First of all, what is “Opening Day” called in football? Is is “Opening Kick”? Somehow that doesn’t sound right. That feels like I’m calling baseball’s Opening Day “First Pitch”. Somehow “Opening Day” doesn’t sound right for football either. Any thoughts? Anyhoo, in honor of the “First Foosball Game of the 2011 Season for Both the […]

Some Thanksgiving Night Football (Cards)
November 26th, 2009 by slangon

So that was a squeaker on Sunday. That was the kind of win that almost makes me feel worse that if they had lost. Luckily, being a Mets fan, I’m used to wins (and losses) that make me feel bad like that so it just rolls off my back. Now we move onto Denver. We’ll […]

Sunday Afternoon Football (cards)
November 22nd, 2009 by slangon

The Giants had a bye last week, so I did not bust anything. Rather I posted the neat-o Mark Sanchez autograph I got through the mail. This week the Giants are going to try and get back on track, so I have bought another Topps Magic Football blaster, which I will once again split up […]

Sunday Afternoon Football Cards, Must-Win Edition
November 8th, 2009 by slangon

I know it’s only halfway through the season, and I know the Giants are 5-3, but I feel like they really need this one. They’re heading into a bye week, which is good. They’ll get some rest, regroup a bit. But do you want to head into your bye week as a team with a […]

A Sunday Dose of Football Cards
November 1st, 2009 by slangon

So once again, a couple of packs of Topps Magic to open while I watch some football games. Same drill as before. I’m just posting the cool stuff. We’ll start it off this week with a couple of rookie cards. Jared looks like he wants to fight. Brandon looks like he wants to dance. You […]

Sunday Night Football Cards
October 25th, 2009 by slangon

Here’s the other half of the blaster that I started in on last week. Hopefully this blaster got all of it’s bad luck out last week in the Giant’s crap-fest of a loss against the Saints. Actually, out of the packs I busted last week, I ended up getting a pretty good hit with that […]

Sunday Football Cards
October 18th, 2009 by slangon

I’m really enjoying this getting some football cards to bust along with watching a football game thing. I guess when it’s only 16 games, it’s do-able. Although I’m sure I end up opening 162 packs of cars over the course of the baseball season. I wonder. Anyway, I went and got a blaster of 09 […]

Some Monday Night Football Cards
October 12th, 2009 by slangon

So, last week I bought some packs of football cards, Philadelphia vs. Magic. Magic won hands down. I went and bought a few more pack to crack while I watched the Giants beat Oakland so badly it made the game really boring. Here’s what I got. Pack 1: #247 John Elway – I guess it […]

Are You Ready For Some Football?
October 4th, 2009 by slangon

In honor of my new found interest in football, and in celebration of the fact that as of today the misery that was the 2009 Mets baseball season is over, I decided to buy me some football cards. Now, even though it’s football, I’m not going to stray too far from my usual collecting habits, […]
