Morning all!

Just finished watching Nadal’s amazing comeback Down Under. Unreal…

Boston got 23.6 inches of snow. I'm so glad my neighbor moved the snow in front of my house. I'd be out the forever shoveling. I have about another hour of shoveling for my driveway.

Morning All!

Been awhile since I've checked in. I've given up on the hobby as far as anything new. The whole stupidly silly retail hoarding the last 2 years really put be out of the hobby. I went to several shows where many of the dealers had stacks and stacks of retail marked up double & triple price. No to mention the retail stores having to either quit selling due to resellers accosting store employees/vendor reps, hoarding leaving 99.9% without or those that make backdoor deals with the store employees/vendors.

Since my guy retired, his stuff went on a rollercoaster ride for pricing. it seems to be bottoming back out and I've been on a buying spree.

Covid has kicked the asses of plenty of family members and friends (many have passed on) that its been hard to socialize without worrying about possibly making others sick. I'm vaccinated and boosted but realize I can get it (covid) and pass it on to others.

On a happier note, WHO DEY! LET'S GO BENGALS! Been a long time coming for our team and city. If its just this year, im fine with it.

Morning everyone, hard to tell how much snow we got here, it was so windy. I'm about halfway done with my driveway way, best estimate is a little over a foot

Glad to see you here again! Lost a few friends and a cousin to COVID, so I understand.

Good Morning
@fordman I feel the the same way about cards. Collected Ripken. The explosion of cards in '98 and '99
dropped me out. Suffered thru COVID during Christmas 2020. Still can't smell or taste. Have all three shots.
Sorry for your loss.

Morning all, @fordman good to see ya still around…

Was putting some stuff away and realized my 1962-2016 binder was getting overly full so decided to do a bit of reorganization and am now separating everything by decade 1962-1969, 1970 - 1979, etc…pain in the @$$ switching these 9 card pages, but it will be better in the end. Also doing better on my quest and put 10 TTM requests in the mailbox yesterday, so they all should go out Monday, all to good signers according to SCN…

With that young of an explosive pass offense, combined with an under-rated Defense, they’re here to stay IMO.

Did a GREAT job getting value-priced FAs and it’s really paying off.

Actually picking them to win today too…

All the dads with kids, and even grandparents…we just watched Ron’s Gone Wrong last night, and it was actually pretty good for a kids movie, I’d recommend it
