Thanks Alex and Dan. It feels kind of weird being promoted and all that when i know other people are out there losing their jobs.

Hey wideright you still planning on the ultimate sig break?

Morning Alex... Meghan aka fiancee is sleeping soundly at home while I am multitasking (chattin in FCB and working on my desk). She has an interview, and hopes she get it soon!

By the way, you asked me this before - our wedding date is on October 24th... :D

morning everyone.

Andrew McCutchen is finally getting his chance today after the Pirates traded Nate McLouth to the Braves. the game is at 12:35 so I will not be able to watch it but I hope he has a solid game.

the Pens and Wings play Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Finals tonight. I think the Pens will win 4-2 and tie the series 2-2.

Alex - Ahhhh sweet June has arrived. Yesterday I was able to visit 2 card shops, get rid of two rubbermaid tubs full of sets and get a Kobe Bryant auto and a Barry Sanders auto in return. Going back again early next week :D

Yes, IF I can find some cases. All the usual dealers seem to be sold out of them. Hopefully I will run across a stash of them somewhere. Probably over in Asia is my guess.

Indy, hope your wrist is feeling better soon. I know how frustrating it can be.

Dan, congrats on the 2 new pickups. And yes, I got the package the other day. Sorry I forgot to let you know. I got a sweet deal from you this time. 1 booked for $30, 1 for $50, and not sure about the other yet.

George, will be on the look out for the package and will let you know as soon as it arrives.

Mox, congrats on the promo. Never hurts to have alittle bigger paycheck each week. :)

Alex, weather is alittle better today, but got a bunch of stuff to do. Probably won't get out for another ride till Sat. maybe Sun.

Wide, morning bud.

Good morning fellow early birds. I hope everyone is doing well today. I've finally quit being lazy and did some scanning, so I have a couple of things I want to show off this morning. :D

I got this in earlier in the week:

It looks great next to these:

2008RazorLettermanPR12.jpg
2008RazorLettermanPR13.jpg



Now I just need the “E” and I’ll have the base set done. There’s one on eBay with a BIN/BO of $95.99, but that’s a little too pricey for me at the moment.






Next is something that greatly adds to my memorabilia collection, to me anyway. I am very happy to finally have something like this in my collection. So instead of talking, I’ll let the scans do it.

An autographed Adam Dunn game used batting glove! It is my first gamer. It was nice to finally add a gamer to the collection. Griffey and Pete game used stuff sells for 4 figures, so since Dunn is my third favorite player behind them, I figured I’ll get gamers of him. It’s very cool and yes, before anyone asks, I had to try it on. :lol:

Scott Papi's 2 rbi double last night was a solid hit and hopefully it gets him going. what a crazy game that was last night. Beckett carries his no hitter into the 7th and then they give up 5 runs and Saito didn't look so hot but he was able to end it.

Josh I don't see it going that way tonight. I think the Pens will carry the momentum from their win on Monday and do it again tonight.
