Things have been quite busy here at SlangKo Corporate HQ in preparation for spring training. I’ve decided to dispatch a gaggle of customs to Port St. Lucie in an attempt to get me some Metsie autos. Of course when I ran through the list of players, I came up with 26 dudes I wanted to […]

A while back, I had busted up a pack or two of T206 (I know it’s officially known as just 206, but I will continue to call it T206). In said packs, I had received a Dodger or two. A certain Owl who apparently only comes out at night had contacted me about the availability […]

It’s been quite a busy few days here at SlangKo Corporate. There was the obligatory last minute Christmas shopping. This was also the first holiday season with the baby, so of course we were running around to and fro visiting everybody that wanted to see the boy . I finished up with the Johnny Lattner autograph […]

Here’s our final push to get this sucker done. I apologize in advance for all the terrible scans. I never realized how careless you get when you’re scanning 1,000 cards at one time. Anyway, here we go. Pack 15: #22 Mike Scioscia #45 Brian Jordan #21 Bobby Cox A couple of years ago, Bobby Broke […]

Now we’re getting to the good stuff – the cards. Pack 1 – #24 Luis Gonzalez #41 Manny Ramirez Whaaaat? Who the hell is this guy on Manny Ramirez’ card? Security! Seriously folks, in my mind 2003 is not that long ago, but looking at these cards, I feel like it’s 20 years ago. I […]

Another Trade
September 22nd, 2009 by slangon
I make a few trades every now and again on a website called Sports Card Fun, which is basically a forum where people post cards that they’re looking to trade or get, and you work out whatever deals. I never really work out anything ground breaking, mostly just set building. Because of this, a lot […]
