********** The Morning Thread **********

[George_Calfas]

Nice poll question Dan. Not enough people think to compare raw cards

 

[muskiesfan]

Well done Dave, well done. After getting to rest, I thought Dan was the one to watch out for. I see I underestimated your Shaolin style. :mrgreen:

 

[A_Pharis]

I voted for ya Maine.

 

[MojoDan]

Yeah, Dave was stealth just there...approaching enigma status

 

[Jeff D]

I voted for ya Maine.

Yeah, your Ted Williams collection is sick. I thought about entering my Hank Aaron collection, but I just figured it wouldn't get the votes because I don't have thousands of cards, or hundreds of patch cards.

 

[muskiesfan]

I voted for you too Scott. I'm a big fan of your collection.

I'm begininng to think I may have to retire from the MT. I'm the only one who thinks I'm funny. Dan informed me that I'm only MODerately funny 37% of the time. :lol:

 

[wideright]

Well I tried a zinger up above but it fell flat on it's face. So I thought I'd give it one more shot :lol:

Scott- sorry about the contest. I'm sure you aren't losing sleep over it, but that kind of contest is way too subjective to be fair.

 

[Resident Bay Fan]

Morning all. I was up early(as in, way to early), so I went back to bed and just got up. ::facepalm:: What's this I hear about a dead horse?

Thanks Jeff, do you have a link to your Aaron collection? I have a Hank collection as well in my bucket

I voted for you too Scott. I'm a big fan of your collection.

I voted for ya Maine.

Thanks to you both!!!

Indeed I did.

However...

When the MOD hat comes off, you are a solid 89%

...I've moved on :lol: :lol: and am awaiting an addition to the Ted collection that I had NEVER seen before. Found it in the Beckett Marketplace of all places. Will show off when I get it, likely early next week.

 

[muskiesfan]

Dave- Your zinger was funny. I didn't think it fell on it's face.

Well done Dave, well done. After getting to rest, I thought Dan was the one to watch out for. I see I underestimated your Shaolin style. :mrgreen:

I was just teasing Dan about a comment he made during the Nationals. We were joking around with Brian and Dan made his MODerately joke. :lol:


Art- How's it going this morning? Your card turned out really well with you riding the horse.

Nice collection there! Love the Double Header. Still need to pick one of those up.

I don't have all my stuff scanned yet, and then I plan on starting a site of sorts. But here's a link to my PSA Hank Aaron Basic Set registry. I just upgraded my 1954 (which should give me a pretty big jump), and I don't have a scan of my 1974 in there, but I think the rest is pretty up to date:

Thanks Joe, at first I thought it would be a bit weird, but then I figured, what the hell, why not be different. It does look pretty good though. Dave does a great job.

[Jeff D]

Off to work. Have a great day all!

 

[KC37]

Good morning, boys.
That set is looking great, Dave. Maybe I should have gotten a real monkey...

 

[muskiesfan]

KC- Your card looks awesome! Love the monkey painting in the background.

Art- Don't worry about weird. I'm the one wearing a football jersey in a baseball set. :lol:

 

[metallicalex777]

Man I turn my head to work for a bit and come back to reading Spanish? My brain had to be used to use that...thanks alot Joe :twisted: :lol: Good morning again guys!!!

Dave - The MT set is looking AMAZING!!! If you ended up doing backs you could simplify it by using a "matching" design on the back to go with the front and have a simple one lined "rookie" stat showing the date each member arrived at the FCB. For most of us it will be August 7th...maybe even include the birthdate so for those of us that receive the cards will know when the birthdays are too...

 

[pghbuccos]

morning everyone.

Jason Bay hit his 21st home run last night but the Sox fell to the Rays again. the Sox and Yanks start a 4 game series tonight. I sure hope Smoltz can get himself together and pitch well tonight.

Dave the cards look awesome so far. I need to get my wife to take my pic this weekend and I will email it ASAP.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Dan did math.........without George?

And Joe, don't worry. I'm wearing a football jersey with a baseball team on it ::facepalm:: :lol:
