Brandon Morrow
Good point. Felix was a statistical standout that year with ERA and SO's. But it also shows that guys with great stuff don't always pile up the wins. Seems that power guys can struggle with the wins and losses sometimes (Nolan Ryan for example was a career .526 pitcher). So what is the upside...- saucywombat

Brandon Morrow
John Smoltz-esque Great stuff, lots of SO's, potential to win the Cy Young or go 13-12 in a given season. Classic power pitcher, has the stuff to be the best, but will he be? He's been great for my fantasy team. Hobby wise not sure if the John Smoltz's of the world ever garner much interest...- saucywombat

Should Albert Belle be in the HOF?
Personally Albert Belle was one of my favorite players when I was collecting as a kid. I liked his bad attitude and smashing the ball all over the place as part of a very high octane Cleveland Indian team. With that said I thought it was clearly established that he was a user and that the...- saucywombat

I have to say - I LOVE Checkoutmycards
I recently discovered COMC and have found it to be the first serious competitor for my Ebay dollars. Scans of every card front and back be it a .05 or $500. Absolutely can not beat that if you are hunting high grade commons for a set. Plus as mentioned it saves a TON compared to Ebay on...- saucywombat

Does 1995 Emotion have variations in the words on front?
Got a good laugh. I think everyone thought Studio and Emotion were for alternative card collectors. Not that there is anything wrong with that.- saucywombat

Oh Super Sweet 90's Inserts.... #3
Did not see your post earlier in the thread regarding your friend's story. Certainly give you credit as probably the leading expert on 90's inserts, but you would have to concede that the PSA Pop reports don't indicate any kind of scarcity for this card and that it sells in line with the other...- saucywombat

Oh Super Sweet 90's Inserts.... #3
The Andre Dawson hoarding his '93 Refractors is just some sort of strange baseball card collecting "urban legend". There is positively nothing to substaniate the story. Most importantly you will have no problem picking up a 1993 Finest Refractor Dawson. Jimmy Key and Orel Hershiser are...- saucywombat

What value/degree of difficulty for 97-98 Skybox Star Ruby?
I realize the 97-98 Skybox 97-98 Star Rubies are numbered to 50, but how desirable are they? Do they show up often or are they greatly desired by set builders? What is a fair price on a common player? Have a guy I collect who was an NBA journeyman from my alma mater and this card came up on...- saucywombat

1991 Topps. Who knew?
Did the same thing with 1991 Topps after seeing the checklist on junkwaxgems site. Found some rare A*B* back variations and the Randy Bush no print code I found sold for $17.50 on EBay. Had fun.- saucywombat

Will Clark Collectors Thread
Yea I remember I had set a goal of saving up $35 for a Clark Fleer RC (since I had the other prime cards - Bonilla and Bonds) but some how could never make it that far. I think primarily because you could get a box of Topps for $17.50 at Revco. When I first got really interested in baseball...- saucywombat

Go cocks! This football season really gives me an appreciation for what Ray Tanner has done in Columbia. No excuse for Spurrier not finding a QB in his 6 years at USC.- saucywombat

1990 Topps Jeff King "No White On Back" Variation
Nice write up that explains the issue well. 1990 Topps is an amazingly consistent product especially considering how many of these things were produced, outside of some inking variations, notably Frank Thomas NNOF, there is really nothing that creates a truly different card. I suppose error...- saucywombat

Colon, stem cells, and their future
Probably "stem cell" in name only. I have Type 1 Juvenile Diabetes (since 1997) in '97 stem cell cures were "a few years away", so I have always kept up with these things. There has been success in lab animals and some limited human testing but essentially the problem is that there is no...- saucywombat

As interesting as this thread is it reminds me why I once quit collecting and haven't bought packs since 96 - Holy cow there is a ton of product from the 90's!
