I did it. i finally finished it!
From one team collector to another: congrats and well done! If I was you, I'd add the rest of the 60s all at once. You'll be surprised at how fast they'll add up. If you're not particularly condition sensitive, I'm sure I can help you out a little. -
Am I alone here?
Player collection in penny sleeves, but oversized cards are in a binder. Sets are all in 800 ct boxes, no sleeves. Vintage Dodgers & Rams collection is in binders. -
Custom Card Templates Free-For-All
Fantastic stuff guys! If anyone ventures into late 80s-early 90s Donruss, please allow for *denotes/*denotes*'and INC/INC. variations! :D -
EDIT: Ebay buyer is a complete psychopath BECAUSE ITS CARDCOP!
Are we sure a certain orange-faced politician isn't cardcop's alter ego? His negs read an awful lot like this politician's 3am tweets. I noticed that several of his negs complaining about sellers leaving him a "negative positive", yet has no qualms about about engaging in the exact same... -
1989 Upper Deck sample/blank back help needed
Hopefully there's at least one expert in these things here. For many years I've had the card on the left, which has a stamp on the back that reads SAMPLE NOT FOR RESALE. I have also been searching for a blank back, which I have seen examples of in other player collections. One showed up on... -
Vintage Pick Up Thread
My card buying has all but dried up since I finished most of the Dodgers sets I had been working on and sworn off almost all modern cards. Even the Butler collection has been gathering dust. I pick stuff up here and there for it, but just can't get all that excited about it anymore. Today's... -
Why I love the Dodgers
I love baseball. I've loved baseball my whole life, and in particular I love the Los Angeles Dodgers. I've been living in Giants territory for most of my life. I'm often asked, "why do you root for the Dodgers?" A good response would be this: because I hate the Giants! But, really - why... -
The new show Pitch on Fox about the first female pitcher is really good.
It was decent. I'll tune in for episode 2 and see how it goes from there. -
A Very Mouschi Contest
* Rick Monday, because he saved the American flag from being burned by two protesters on April 25, 1976. Side note: it was pretty hard not giving "Brett Butler" as a knee-jerk response! * I have been a volunteer youth leader for junior high and high school students for the past 17 years or so *... -
AJ Ellis+ traded for Carlos Ruiz
Insult to injury: the Dodgers took their team picture today. I'm far from an Ellis fan, but that's bull****. My initial reaction to the trade was laughter. "About time", I said to myself. He really hasn't been Kershaw's personal catcher for a couple years (Grandal caught 13/33 of his 2015... -

1988 Topps O-Pee-Chee - no orange?
opcbaseball.com has several in stock. I picked up my '88 'black only' back from them a couple years back. http://www.opcbaseball.com/black-only-back/ According to Tom (site owner): The 1988 O-Pee-Chee Black Only Backs are very limited and difficult to find. They do not come up for sale very... -

Rolling Brett Butler collection thread: Marlins game-worn uniform 8-10-16
Pretty significant arrival today: 2015 Miami Marlins road uniform, game worn (as a coach, of course). Since iPhones take such crappy pictures, these don't really represent the jersey very well. It's pretty darn nice jersey. TNP777/Brett%20Butler/Uniforms/Miami%20Marlins/IMG_5678.jpg... -

2017 Topps Series 1 - design revealed
http://www.cardboardconnection.com/2017-topps-series-1-baseball-cards I think I like it, although it's not terribly different from the past couple years. -
Who are your Rookies of the Year at this point?
While he almost certainly won't win the MVP, he at least appears to be getting some attention in that direction. http://m.mlb.com/news/article/193410654/corey-seager-in-nl-most-valuable-player-race/ No question he's the Dodgers MVP, though. -
Want Your Collection Shared On Twitter?
I just finished going through my Dodgers thread and updating links and scans. I think it's good to go! http://www.freedomcardboard.com/forum/showthread.php/44070-Scanning-my-Dodgers-done-thru-82-updated-8-9-16 Twitter handle: @dodgergeo -
Scanning my Dodgers: done thru '82 - updated 8/9/16
Saw the Twitter thread and thought I'd submit my Dodgers thread. Then I realized that I hadn't updated most of the pictures so that they pointed to my new website (everything used to be hosted by Comcast). So. Updated and bumped. While I'm at it, I might as well post a new set I've been... -

Your favorite home run call
I totally understand where you're coming from. Even though I wasn't even alive, I can't stand to hear Russ Hodges call in 1951. -
Your favorite home run call
That Niehaus call cracks me up every time. -
Your favorite home run call
entire Kirk Gibson at bat https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hCkYon5qjWI ETA: amazingly, Scully and Garagiola don't utter a peep for roughly 1:07. That's HoF broadcasting right there, folks. Know when to speak, but also know when to let the viewer soak up the moment. -
Question for the group regarding Hall of Fame eligibility...
Just because there are already many stat compilers enshrined doesn't (or shouldn't) mean there needs to be more of them. Don Sutton comes to mind simply because he was primarily known as a Dodger, and this Dodgers fan doesn't agree with his inclusion. -
Question for the group regarding Hall of Fame eligibility...
Call me a grumpy old man, but none of those guys (with the possible exception of Edgar) strike me as being worth of the Hall of Fame. The HoF is for legendary players, not the Don Suttons and "he was on a really good Yankees team and therefore should be in the HoF" guys.
