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

Sweet pickups Dave! The fleury patch is wicked sick Is the Bay auto that faded looking or is it just the scan? What year is that too?

Looks like the sig is actually on a piece of gu bat. It's his full sig too, which is pretty cool!

I don't believe its actually auto'ed guys. Its a burned in facsimile "auto".

::facepalm:: I guess it would help to read! Didn't even see Authentic GU Bat underneath. Thanks Steve-o.

 

[ChasHawk]

Very, very generous Andrew!

We'll have a MT knife fight to see who gets the cards

I forgot what you told me before Charlie, your baby is due when again?

Could be ANY day in the next few weeks!

Have we seen George today?

thanks Dave. I agree the Fleury patch is beautiful. I actually won it on eBay from daveyou he pulled it last week and I was lucky enough to win it.

Steve is correct guys it is a facsimile auto burned into a piece of bat. it's a 2002 Bowman's Bat Gold and will go nicely with these...

Great looking set Dave!

Haven't seen George all day. Any news, Dan?

Andrew, very nice of you to do that for us!

 

[MojoDan]

Okay guys, talked to Andrew and I think the best way to do this is we will each nominate a couple members tomorrow morning the in MT and go from there. If there are a couple of members with a tie, maybe we will start a poll or something


If anyone else can think of a better way then please let us know.


Remember, there are 2 great spots up for grabs here...so PLEASE take a moment to chime in tomorrow...

Don't forget to thank Andrew

In his bout of INCREDIBLE generosity, he put us down for a spot in all 3 of his upcoming breaks!

Nominations will be public or via PM? Sounds like a cool idea.

 

[pghbuccos]

Great looking set Dave!

Andrew, very nice of you to do that for us!

thanks Dave.

I guess Dan's idea is a little more humane but I still vote for a knife fight.

THANKS ANDREW

Honestly, we all know each other and I'm pretty sure there has never even been a neg. phrase even uttered in any of our MTs. While we could do a random drawing or contest, for a higher end pull or way nicer card, perhaps we should see what is pulled and go from there. We have so many set/player collectors in our group, I'm sure most of us would like to see proper cards go to the right home.

Now that is interesting as well. Only problem would be if a Red Sox card surfaces. We have about 5-6 Sox fans.


Honestly, I think the best way would be for everyone to send me or andrew the votes via PM...however he wants to do it. I will even disqualify myself from the running.


How do the rest of you see this?

 

[ChasHawk]

I think you are right Dan. There are several Sox, and at least a couple of Cubs
collectors. I'm not sure the best way to do it, but I see no reason to eliminate
you and Mini from the running. Where else is our mojo going to come from?

Whoever wins I'll make every effort to attend the breaks with the shirt on.

This.

 

[MojoDan]

Okay guys, just talked to Andrew and came up with what I feel is the best way to handle this.

Each member of the MT will be awarded a # and andrew will draw a # from the bingo hopper to decide the 3 winners.

At that point, the winner can either keep their spot or donate it to someone else if they would like.

Ex: If my name is drawn and I get the Brewers, I would donate it to gvsu (Josh) or something like that.

I will make a list for tomorrow morning with everyone but please double check it for me so that I dont overlook anyone.

Thanks and good luck!

Dan this sounds like the best idea and should work out well for everyone.

 

[ChasHawk]

See. I've said it before. Anytime you need to navigate a difficult situation, Dan's your man.
