Good morning all!
Heading to Tallahassee shortly to meet up with some friends and see Luke Bryan tonight.
Already have a Tallahassee LCS programmed into the GPS.

Random thought... how many people join in on random box or case breaks in hopes for a PC card? I really think the VAST majority do it for the gamble and the pay day, period.

On that note, why aren't all breaks draft style? I think the answer is because they take forever and the time involved with the "draft" aspect BUT I think that it'd help with the odds that every person in the break just goes to flip their random selection.

For example... I might pass on a better team slot for the Indians if they're close enough because odds are good I'd like some of the Indians cards... otherwise, I could end up with the Astros or even Detroit for a better team and I might have zero interest in anything pulled.

my Grandson is comming over Sat Night, I'll get him to help me look for Dawsons for ya

Have to love having a work force. I go on vacation on the 19th and I will get everyone a list of their player cards I have including Griffey for you.

Good morning.

I do not get to participate that often so I am going to show all three, plus you have to love starburst cards.

I have not participated in a break yet because nothing has been broken that would give me odds at a Dawson card. If a case or two of Prizm or Hometown Heroes would have been broken then I would have joined in hopes to grab some Dawsons. If Prizm box prices were not too high (in my opinion) I would break some myself. Might see what Hometown Heroes boxes are going for.

Wow George... that's great! Congrats! Wow, how long has it been since #7 came in? Do you have a Belle? You can tell me, I'd rather know it's out there and in good hands.

Again, never seen or heard of the Belle, complete set was not made and Belle might not have one.

I have purchased 8 of the 9 that I have ever seen (passed on Mark McGwire CS so it could go to the MM Museum). I bought #7 about 2 years ago. I can confirm that about 25 +/- exist but I have never seen them for sale at auction or I would own them.

My weekend has officially started. The midterm didn't take me much time at all. Even stopped by the grill on campus to get a breakfast sandwich afterwards. No classes until Wednesday

Morning all. Haven't been so happy to see Friday in a really long time.

I have no idea what that card is that George has posted either haha. Someone mind filling the rest of us in?

 

[michaelstepper]

Oh my, morning came quick this morning. Was up late helping/working on Nicks Biggio collection. Then Alie was up before seven. Wanted to go to school early so she can play before school officially starts. Now im back home, wanting to get a nap in before i go to work in three hours. But i cant cuz ive got to keep an eye on Avery. Maybe i can sneak a haircut in before i go to work... Thinkin about it...

Good morning.

Ahh, 96 Pinnacle. Which card to post... Hmm.... Ok, ill just post the base museum collection. If i were to post all of Bagwells museum collection, artists proofs and base cards, it would take up a whole page in the MT!

[MENTION=3754]MansGame[/MENTION] I dont participate in any box breaks anymore. Never see any Bagwell in anything, so it doesnt help my PC to join in. I just wait til the Bagwells are listed on ebay.
