@TBTwinsFan who are you graphing tomorrow?

Thank you for all of your replies guys. I know it seems small and petty on my part, I just figured that we would all receive the same thing since we missed out on the same thing instead of making huge differences on who gets what.

Curiosity would get the best of me and I would have to at least ask why the difference. But, hey, that's me.

Michael - Nice additions, sir! Back when we still had an LCS, I opened several packs of Sweet Spot, 2009 I believe, and managed to hit two Jeter's. Sold both but can't remember what I bought with the $$$.:(

Work wasn't too bad today. My supervisor showed up, ate an orange, and then got sick again so he wasn't there at all again. The workday always seems to go better when he's gone

That's crazy!
Thanks Alexs!
I too hit a jeter auto out of 09 but traded for a Maddux /25 auto straight up. Hated that deal... :/
In a rough patch sold the Maddux for for an absurdly low amount comparably

Evening Gents! Long but productive day catching up on everything I missed at work. Already stoked for the National trip next week though :)

Michael - Outstanding sweet spot pickups!!! Whenever you are ready to unload any of your Felix ones to help fund your HOF ones just let me know ;)

Hawk8 - What a great Dawson collection thus far! You should connect with Charlie one of these days, he has such an amazing collection.

Joe - Yo Broseph! Congrats on yet another contest win :) IMO your opinion is justified if everyone else received the better headphones, but it is also something that was free too. I would say maybe a simple and very nice question on why there were two different types of prizes might answer some of your worries without giving off the impression that you are "owed" anything.

Hello all! July 23rd, we welcomed two new little people into our family. Everyone is doing great and healthy! It was a long pregnancy and really pushed B to the limit.

See a photo of them with their adoring big sister below along with details of our nearly 15lbs of arrivals!

Vera Vasiliki: (on right in photo)

Height/weight-- 19½”, 7lbs, 8oz

Meaning truth or faith, she’s named for B’s great grandma Vera Gilmore Gibson, the only other twin in the family; and G’s Yia-yia, Vasiliki Calfas; her Greek name day is October 4th (Bridget’s birthday!)

Gabriel Aristotle:

Height/weight-- 20½”, 6lbs, 13oz

Meaning “God is my strength” and Aristotle is of course G’s “real” name; there are many Orthodox name days including the Synaxis of the Archangel Gabriel on July 13th (George’s birthday).

Would love to chat with Charlie one day and trade stories, maybe we could even help each other fill in our collections.

Really nice cards, Alex! I like that Brock patch a lot!

Thank you kindly Andrew! George really surprised me with that one, and now that I have the Brock and the Aaron I have interest to find a few others :)

He is quite organized with his collection scan wise as well...very nice to look at.

Alexpnw - Great additions! I'm extremely jealous of you going to the Natty. I hope that Stafford brings you something incredible.:D
