When I say “small,” I don’t mean insignificant. Not by any means. Quite the opposite, actually. And when I say “Giant fan,” I don’t mean of us. No, no, no. I simply mean that a fan of the Baseball team from San Francisco, ARPsmith from ARPSmith’s Sportscard Obsession, sent over some smaller sized items in […]

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, […] It doesn’t happen too often, but occasionally bloggers will get cards out of the blue. Typically we’re not those guys. There’s usually a reason for us receiving something from somebody. And speaking just for myself, I’m fine with that. I get so wrapped up in the various aspects of my life that I can’t spend […] How’s that for a deceptive post title?! But seriously, Jamie Moyer winning his first game of the season the other day (thus becoming the oldest pitcher to win a game in the history of baseball) happened literally hours after I had a conversation with a non-collector friend of mine.

Once that starts up, I won’t want to stop everything to wedge in a trade post. Luckily, I have no qualms about squeezing one more in before the announcement. Then I’m […] 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.

The Henchback of Notre Dame. Turner and Hench. Hench. Sorry, I’m sure he gets that a lot, but I couldn’t resist. And yes, I copied the text you see when you roll over his link on our blog roll (if anyone even notices that exists), but that’s only because I’m not creative […] If you’re wondering why I haven’t posted in a week, maybe what you’re about to see will explain it. You’re going to be treated to a very short introduction this time, because I’m writing 3,000 words or so overall on this doozy of a trade. Things like this take time you know. The cards below […] College Football will be starting up again very shortly. I’m not much of a football guy. If I were a football guy, I don’t think I would be a college football guy. I understand the argument as to why the college game is better. I also understand that I don’t care to keep track of […] |
