Why am I so excited about college basketball? A few reasons. 1) My Chicago Bulls aren’t likely to be too fun to watch until Derrick Rose returns from injury. 2) I think the college game is simultaneously infinitely more fun and infinitely more frustrating to watch due to the raw passion and hustle and lack […] Let’s compare something shall we? McDonald's was a little early with the label Frank Thomas – Two Time MVP Award Winner 2 MVP awards means 2 pictures Versus Not so fast, 80s graphic! Tony Gwynn – Zero-Time MVP Award Winner I know these two were never in direct competition for the award, […] Alright. This took forever to put together. I’m talking about both the post and the album. It took two waves of purchases from the Panini Sticker website to complete the album and it takes two posts to finish showing it all off. Admittedly it probably should have been more than 2. Or I should have […] Once again, neither delegate from the state of Community Gum attended the National Sports Collectors Convention this year. At least one of us should and will be roaming the show floor in 2013 when the NSCC returns to Chicago. Even though we weren’t able to see all the amazing action in person, nor stand in […] Fair warning time: This is going to be scan heavy. Really heavy. Like so heavy, I’m splitting it up into two parts. Okay, the first part won’t be too bad (second part – brutal), but it will be about basketball. If neither are your cup of tea, I don’t blame you for turning away. If […] Back in March, I did something I rarely do. I posted a preview for an upcoming product. While this blog comments on hobby news here and there, it’s usually in a editorial/commentary fashion rather than a straight-up news format. What made it even more unusual was that it was for a basketball product. I’ve flirted […] We’re still in the midst of March Madness, so basketball has been on my mind more often than usual lately. I’ve been neglecting my basketball collections for the most part. One major reason is that they are very specific. There aren’t a lot of people actively looking to push their 1995-96 Series 1 Basketball inserts […] How about that Walking Dead season finale? The first half of the season was terrible, and still not wild about all the inconsistencies and random changing of the rules on the fly, but at least we got a nice action packed ending. Oh, right. Cards. This is going to be a big one. Get ready. […] We haven’t talked about Panini a whole lot on this blog lately (or Upper Deck for that matter). That’s because we’re primarily a baseball blog and their baseball related products have been…shall we say…limited. I want to try to rectify the lack of non-Topps chatter some as we go forward, because there are some important […] …but I actually believe Ryan Braun. Coming home from work on Friday, I got to hear a large portion of his press conference after his 50-game suspension acquittal. I think just hearing the audio of it, without seeing his face, is what did it. To this listener, it sounded like he voice was quivering and […] |
