In the Shadows

I have very few card collections given my limited resources and space, but I did decide some time ago to begin collecting on-card Royals autographs. It’s been a blast so far trying to track these things down and this is the latest addition to my collection. To view the cards currently in the collection, take […]

See, We’re Still A Normal Blog

Don’t let the whole retail shop thing throw you off too much, we’re still a typical blog at heart. I know we haven’t posted in a few days since the big announcement, but posts will go on as scheduled. The next time you read my words after this will be a returning feature, then I’ll […]

My Frank Thomas and Tony Gwynn Collections Have Officially Started

You can find the links to the spreadsheets listing which cards I have and need at this link right here.

I should also mention that my Kerry Wood list is also up there. I didn’t put him in the title, because the title was too long to begin with, and AdamE didn’t send me any […]

Player Collection Progress Report

So, here’s my review without further delay. Get your coffee and grab a seat. There will be no commercial breaks. Time to […]

Community Break Full Length Box Break Videos

The time has come…sort of. The time has come for the youtube box breaks. I will basically be out of commission from Thursday on through Labor Day, so it’s really now or never. The time for write-ups about each product and showing off some of the goods in static picture format will unfortunately have to […]

Royals On-Card Auto Addition: Carlos Febles

A couple weekends ago, Jon and I went to a card show in our hometown of Rockford, IL. Okay, technically it was in the village of Cherry Valley, which is kind of like a suburb of Rockford (yes, we get our own suburbs). It was in the mall there and let’s just say it’s been […]
