I know it is hard to quantify 2 completely different type of players, but if you had to chose, who would you say had the better career?
I think the high profile team and 'flair' gives Kobe an edge for me, however I have a soft spot for fundamentals and Duncan with his no-nonsense game play...
Ok, lets say you had a decent collection of cards, one that had some worth to it, and you simply wanted to give it all away. How would you go about it? Break it in to smaller lots and disperse? Unload it all at once to a fellow collector? Give it to the LCS to pass along? Just curious... Lets...
With your Dad, as a Dad, feel free to share your own!
One of this things that keeps me in the hobby to varying degrees is the nostalgic feeling of thinking back to the early 1980's when my dad and I would watch the Mets. We would pull out all our Mets cards and try to make the starting line up...
What do you think the commissioner of baseballs legacy will be when he leaves it all behind? In time will he be remembered as the man who gave a blind eye to PED usage for profit? Will he be remembered as the guy who took a hard stance against PED usage? Or do you think he will be remembered for...

Jeff contacted me a few days ago offering a card he said "belongs in a Pujols collection". I am not much for handouts but I was grateful that he chose me. Today I received said card and I was/am floored & humbled by his generosity. I do not usually find myself on the receiving...
Thought I would have some fun and do a complete virtual custom Topps McCutchen run from 1952 on up. Here are the first few and I will add more as I make them. I think when it is all said and done I may make a poster or something of them all...
Just thought of a cool idea for a insert. Remember back when Donruss had the puzzles in packs of cards? Well this is similar to that but each piece would be the size of a card seeded individually so you would have to find all 12 pieces to make the full puzzle picture. But it gets better, each...
Ok, maybe I am making these a bit too easy, but I'm having fun so...
1. The year I won MVP I led the league in 5 statistical categories including Runs & OBP.
2. The year I won MVP I was also an All Star and a SS Award winner.
3. The year I won MVP I hit a personal best for home runs in a...
I am going to try and avoid specific statistics to try and test true knowledge and not ones Google-fu.
1. I led the league in HR's and RBI the year I won MVP.
2. I averaged less than 100 games played per year, for my entire career.
3. My MVP year I made less than $1,000,000.
4. I was an AS...
Is it possible that at 33 years of age Howard has finally lost his power stroke?
Looking at this seasons numbers (71 games, 284 plate appearances is no small sample size), and comparing them to his productive seasons of 2006 - 2011, his HR total is way down and his doubles total is way up...
It's been a while since I took the time to photoshop a custom design, but had the itch today.
Ok, so it's not revolutionary but here it is. I think it could make a neat subset anyhow...
I'm not sure how long ago it was, perhaps months now, but I finally got around to opening a bubble mailer from Gilmore. I believe it was from some sort of contest concerning Leaf Valiant. Anyway, as it turns out it was/is a pretty decent player card! Thanks again!
In an attempt to offer something a bit out of the ordinary, I present to you for consideration the inaugural edition of what I am going to call the “Five for Five” list. The premise is simple, you are looking to start a new player collection, have $500 to throw down, and want 5 nice cards to...
Out of the big 3, what sport do you think is the most corrupt?
Personally, I think Basketball is a sliver above Professional Wrestling. No real basis or proof of this but just a feel I get from watching. I sometimes wonder if the fix is not on from the begining of the season creating as they...
Recently, I saw someone make a refrence that Hamilton will most likely equate to Coleman, and although I can not remember the exact words nor what message board I read it on, I was/am pretty sure it was actually being used as a put down to marginalize all the hype and recent price spikes in his...

I really want a new product, something that is not all parallels and prospects, nor super expensive but still chrome like. Something that revolves around a diverse checklist and 'hits' are actually additional value and not the end all be all to the product it'self...
Here is what I want...
