Good morning everyone!

Pretty slow night last night without the Red Sox but I was able to bust open a box of 1998 Flair Baseball.
I pulled a Tony Womack Legacy and a Bonds Row 0 #'d to 500 and a David Cone Row 0 #'d to 2000.
Not a bad box.

Got some nice Jim Ed cards coming in as well as some Lee Smith cards. Will have scans up in a couple of days.

Just got invited to the Red Sox tomorrow night. Pretty excited for that as it's been the 1st game that I have been to in a couple of years.

I was browsing photobucket the other day and came across one of the best Jim Rice cards ever produced. It was from 2008 Upper Deck Premier and it was a 1/1 Bat Barrel. Jim Ed has a couple of bat barrel cards but this is the first one that I have ever seen. Anyway, since you really can't email someone from photobucket, I was able to track him dowm on youube. His youtube name is "the pack ripper". It appears as though he pulled this card during a group break. I have sent him a couple of messages to see if he still had the card or to get the name of the person who has it but I have yet to receive a response. This would be one of the top cards that I would ever own (I have his 2004 Topps Originals 1975 Rookie auto 1/1) but what frustrates me is that I can't get a hold of the guy. :evil:

Anyway, that's my story.

Good morning fellas. Day 2 of my alternative teaching certification program today. Yesterday there were about 450 of us in a huge auditorium with no air conditioning. It was TERRIBLE. They changed locations today because it was so unbearable. Hopefully it will be a tad more cozy today.

Have a good day guys.

Morning Keith! Sure hope you get hold of this guy. Sounds like a sick card!! I've had several scenarios like that where I see a card I need but very hard to reach the owner. In fact, there's some cards in PSA graded database, but you can't reach the owner. I'm sure the owners don't want to be reached, but I feel your frustration. :?

Morning trevor! GL in your training.

morning everyone.

I went to the Penguins Stanley Cup victory parade yesterday. it was amazing and they estimated the crowd to be 375,000. I have never seen so many people. my camera died on me Sunday night (I need to go buy a new one soon) so I had to use my cell phone and only 2 of the pics came out clear :(

I also went to see The Hangover with my wife last night. it is the funniest movie I have seen in awhile. if you haven't seen it I highly recommend it.

Work has been very busy this week, but I check in when I can. :D

Had a nice win the other night, and will scan when it arrives.
Other than that, I'm pretty boring this week. :lol:
