Ken - Thanks for the heads up. I just checked the thread and didn't realize the draft was tonight. Congrats on slot #2 yet again bud!

Scott - Haha thanks man! 14 shouldn't be too bad, should at least get you close to a $20-$25 card depending on how the case goes or at least something trade-able.

Yeah, I'm happy with it. If I wanted something worth $60, I would have spent it on something else. ;) Are you hoping for something decent to flip/trade or something PC?

I'll be in Florida someday ;)

One of my life's goals is to go to every state.

I think I'm at 9/50 (technically 10, but I'm not counting Idaho)

Not much to Idaho.. Shortest stretch of I-90 at 62 miles or something like that. The drive through Montana was the worst, 560 miles of nothing. Much preferred the drive to Iowa as we took the minor roads and highways. Way back I was in a hurry

Haha yeah, but $60 for a chance of something GREAT isn't too bad just as long as you don't break the bank. I'm hoping for something big for the PC, or at worst something nice to flip to go after something for the PC. I'm in a big HOF/old timer focus lately so this couldn't have happened in a better product :cool:

Thanks Dave! Much appreciated :)

Come back to Washington ;) You can drive through Oregon if you need to scratch that one off too.

Sorry, sold $250

Not bad! Fellow board member?

I went through Montana on a train. The trip was really boring until we hit the mountains on the western edge of the state. I had never seen real mountains until that point so it was a great ride.

I slept through Idaho.

Minnesota is the only state that I've ever really liked, out of the ones I've been too.

Born In Ak driven through
Washington, Oregon, Cali, Arizona, Nevada, Utah, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Nebraska,
Lived in Iowa, Minnesota, Illinois, Missouri. I love to drive the smaller state highways and roads and see the real people and sights. Nebraska was most boring but enjoyed everywhere really. Amazes me how flat everywhere seems to be.

That's pretty much how it was for me too. Ideally, I'd get something Shoeless Joe Jackson as he is my all time favorite historical player. I'm thinking I might grab a slot in break #10 since my lucky number is still available. lol. Hopefully you get something huge for the PC or even more huge to finance PC stuff. Maybe a Trout auto?

Back from the Cubs/Dodgers game. Left after the seventh inning stretch. Cubs Low A team beat the snot out of the Dodger regulars today. Who is this this kid Chris Rusin that started for the Cubbies today? He looked really good and pitched a solid 5 inning against the Dodgers season starting lineup.

Chris Rusin can't be more than 5'10", 150lbs, and dominated the Dodgers today.

Alex Armijo, pm incoming.

I've done Minnesota, Iowa, Wisconsin, North Dakota, South Dakota, Wyoming, Illinois, Montana, Washington. My favorite (non-Minnesota) state has been Washington. What's really sweet/creepy is that Seattle (area) and Duluth are almost one in the same. They are also, essentially, on the same line of latitude.

I also remember really enjoying Wyoming for some reason... I guess I liked the simplicity of it or something.

I was hoping to go to ST in Florida next year, but with the AS Game/Festivities, NCHC tournament, and UMD season tix, on top of my student expenses, that probably won't happen.

I'm starting to come to the realization that I probably won't be able to go to the All-Star game next year. I'll still go to the Home Run Derby at the least though, and if I can work it into the class schedule, I'll be at the Futures game and the Celebrity Softball game.

On the subject of states traveled through, there's only four states I've never been to. Arizona, California, Hawaii & New Mexico.
The drive from one side of South Dakota to the other on I-90 is the most boring drive I've ever made.
