The next week or so its basically gonna be rough on my car, as I'm hitting several different Braves caravans and signings. Plus, just to make things exciting, I'm also going to the Senior Bowl fan day in Mobile, AL.
Day one of my trip lead to me Hoover, AL, only 66 miles from my house. The...
So I got this for Christmas and I'm having a hard time deciding how to display it.
I was thinking a shadow box, but I'm not sure if I like the idea of pins or tape on my new show piece. If I got that route, I'll pin it through the holes in the fingers and wrist.
Any suggestions?

I would have really loved this 3 years ago when I lived in FL and I had to buy MLB.TV to watch the Braves. Much more convenient than having to hook up the computer to the TV, which was something I used to dread doing everyday.
Had my first autographing night in Rome, GA with the Low A Rome Braves. Took 13 cards, got 13 signed. Great night!! If you enjoy pictures from MiLB parks and such, be sure to check out my blog Life of an Autograph Collector: A Night in Rome
Pretty good night, right?

Was thinking about buying some to get signed by lesser players, but I don't know if they hold a signature well over time. I have an auto'd MiLB ball that doesn't look all that good after a year, so I'm wondering if the green training balls are the same. They are full grain leather, so they...
Is anyone here for up for some college football pick'em w/ the spread? If so, I'd be more than happy to run it. I figure some members might do it own their own and would mind competing here for the fun of it. Usually, I stick to $5 on 5 teams type Pick'ems and I think that would translate...
Google and Ebay have failed me (or at least my search terms). Looking for either the old style Just Minors used or the WBC style USA logo, either would be great for my IP autographing. Anyone know where to find any?
I went to the Gwinnett Braves game last Saturday night because I heard they were having selected players sign autographs in front of the clubhouse store before the game. I was actually kinda worried about getting tickets most of the day, since the overrated Tim Wakefield was making a start...
Going to an signing this weekend and would love if someone could help me out and supply me with a Tommy Hanson AG autograph style mini. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Today, I got a baseball I've been looking to buy for awhile, a Greg Maddux autograph on a National League ball. It happens to be my 75th autographed ball and the completion (for now) of my Braves Retired Number Set. The set is in my sig, but here is a picture of the ball by itself. Nice pick...
I recently got a decent deal on a baseball that came with a Field of Dreams COA. I plan on submitting it to JSA just to be safe, but the auto in question looks legit to me. The question is, since Field of Dreams has a MLB license, are there COA's worth the paper they are printed on?
Today I had the privilege to go to the oldest professional baseball stadium for the 2009 Rickwood Classic. Rickwood Field is a couple of years older than Fenway park and the owners try to keep the stadium in the past as much as possible. Each year, the White Sox AA MiLB affiliate, the...
I haven't posted in the TTM/IP forum yet, but it seems like the perfect place for me. I do a lot of TTM/IP's and I'd love to share what I got this weekend. Any comments are welcome!
Got these at a Birmingham Barons Game Friday Night

Saw this linked on a Braves blog, TalkingChop.com, and decided to share it. I enjoyed it because it wasn't about the top guys, focusing on some of the 2nd tier guys.

I was thinking on the way home today about the PSA/DNA Rookie Ball/Graph program, after I picked up a Jason Heyward ball from Gilmore's house. For those not familiar with it, any autograph of an athlete before his 2nd full Major League season is eligible for a PSA/DNA rookie graph. Eligible...
