That may be something I might be interested in.

WOW what a wedding. If I can get the video of the bridal dance, I'll have to post it. We painted our faces in war paint and used the smallest guy as a battering ram. We threw him over top of everyone and he landed by the bride. Almost everyone was so shocked that we were able to sneak the groom to his bride. It took like 30-60 seconds :lol: .

Y'all have a good night. I've got to hit the sack to detox after a 10 hour drinking occasion. I'm getting too old for this crap.

Thinking of doing another article, but not sure on what. Nothing really "happening" in the hobby at the moment.

Write one on the rising cost of sporting events, and how that correlates with your card budget in the fall.

So I haven't busted a lot of 2009 wax - looking back, I think I did two boxes each of Topps Chrome, Bowman Chrome, and Finest, along with four SPA (including the group break of Weimer's I did). Out of each of those releases, I was haunted by one auto who kept popping up - thankfully it wasn't Andre Brown or Patrick Turner - I got a Jeremy Maclin out of each of those, including a Finest Moments /25. Today I bought a box of Elite from the LCS... who do you suppose my auto was? Yep, Maclin auto /200. I'm not complaining.

And last week, I bought a couple blasters of Magic, and hit a Steve Slaton auto. Not bad for wanting to fill some set needs. Tonight at Target, I found a couple more neglected blasters sitting there, so I picked them both up. My blaster auto luck continued yet again tonight. Any guesses on who I pulled?

Yep, Jeremy Maclin.

Oh, and please don't take this as complaining. I like Maclin, like the Eagles enough, and like the Missouri Tigers. If I knew I wouldn't have Wheeler going against me for Maclin stuff, I'd be tempted to start supercollecting the guy. Instead, I'll just buy a few more boxes and probably keep pulling him. And that's a good thing.

That doesn't affect me ... yet ;)

Always tossing the top tier ideas aside. :x People would relate to that one!

Hell, I flipped through some of my tickets and was like "holy crap, I could have spent this money on base cards!"

Another idea for Brad:

Concepts that could come back and be done right in the hobby a second time around.

Like, just for kicks:
"If you could do Topps TX over again, how would you prevent Topps from screwing up such a good concept?"

Or something of that nature. :o

I like that point. I am so glad my Bama ticket was discounted otherwise ::facepalm:: or the USC ticket from this season, or the $50 I spent to go to Maryland.

I do like that other idea about things like TX. That would take some thinking, but could be something good. You should write something again ;)
