    Therion's All Time Astros Autograph Collection (1,004 Reached!! 25 To Go!)

    I haven't posted or been in the hobby for over 10 years but I remember this quest and it's very cool to see you still going for it.

    getting really sick of the A's utility/platoon style of play

    You guys are completely missing his point. You could pull random names out of a hat and have a great April. Baseball is a marathon and not a sprint and I agree with the OP. If you want to have a good team all season long the players need to have a firm grasp on what their role is and need to...

    Looking for high quality graded card storage boxes.

    You should make yourself a high end one for your PC items. You'll be glad you did. I used Pecan for the wood and made sure to have a nice knot for the lid. Brass for the hardware. For the lining we used a pseudo felt that you actually "spray" on. It feels exactly like real felt but thinner...

    ============= The Morning Thread ============

    Thanks, gonna be a while though! Went back to school for a completely different field from my first degree so almost none of my credits applied.

    Thanks! I won't really be "back" until I graduate and have some disposable funds again!

    Probably been a couple years since I posted in the morning thread. Glad it's still going strong!

    Looking for high quality graded card storage boxes.

    Here's a shot of the top of the big one. Sorry, haven't been around much since the boards changed. Can't figure out how to get a decent sized image up here.

    Looking for high quality graded card storage boxes.

    Awesome! Those are definitely my boxes! The small one holds about 5 BGS cards. It wasnt made for baseball cards, I just stole it from my dad cause he wasn't using it and it was the perfect size. The large one was built to fit 100 BGS slabs. Not sure how many PSA slabs it will hold but you...

    Just liquidated the collection

    I had to do the same about a year ago. I went back to school and needed the money. It was tough parting with everything but I have no regrets. They are just cards after all.

    "That's a clown question, bro"

    I really want to hate this guy but he really has handled himself incredibly well since his call up. I'm starting to think maybe he could turn into a class act in-spite of piss poor parenting instead of turning into a grade A ****** bag because of them.

    So, MLB is pruposely shunning Ryan Braun, right?

    Did you really call Braun a likeable player? His arrogance and style of play make him one of the most hated players in the league in my book.

    1st Round Signings Thread

    It's really nice to see positive things from the Astros these last few months. In Luhnow we trust!

    Should Albert Belle be in the HOF?

    While I'm not convinced he is a HOFer I do agree with your premise. I'm as big an Astros fan as anyone but Craig Biggio was NEVER the best player on his TEAM, much less the league. He played for half a decade past his usefulness to compile #s and make himself and Drayton McLane $$$$.

    Should Albert Belle be in the HOF?

    Belle was a very good player and I think those fringe guys have to have extra intangibles to get in (great teammate, post season success, stellar D and baserunning etc). Unfortunately for Belle his intangibles took him in the wrong direction.

    Was the era of steroids so bad?

    Some of us actually like pitching and strategy as opposed to waiting for the 3-run bomb all the time.
