the Pens won again but despite winning 4-1 it was actually a very close game.

thanks again to everyone who stopped in my Jason Bay mailday thread last night. I am now working on getting to 200 different certified auto's. currently at 186.

Check out this story!

I saw that yesterday. Pretty amazing.
I hope it actually helps them and doesn't become a burden.


...a fool and their money...

Reminds me of a joke about two homeless men and some fortune they had.

My Dad told me this'n over Turkey Day. Thanks Dad!

DISCLAIMER: Adult humor.

Two homeless guys were walking along side the railroad tracks and the 1st one says I had some good luck right about this spot a couple of weeks ago. 2nd guy says, "Oh yeah, how?" 1st guy says I found a $20 bill just lying by the tracks. I bought a bottle of wine and drank theat sucker for a week straight. 2nd guy, "That's awesome! I have some good fortune a little further down the tracks. 1st guy says, "Do tell." The guy said I found a woman tied to the tracks, untied her and we went back to my spot and had sex for a week. 1st guy said, "You're kidding me. That's great. Did you get any head from her?" 2nd guy said, "Nope. I couldn't find that part."

That was why I altered the URL. :mrgreen: You have to turn off the swear filter in the UCP, and the link will work.

Alex, thanks for the offer. I am hoping Bing moves somewhere between 15-20% like it did last year, then I will buy it.

Saw a nice Felix Laundry tag end last night, over my budget though.

I saw that too...I wanted to bid but Jiminy Cricket kept whispering about xmas stuff for other people or something like that :lol: Indy sent me a link to the King's logoman...I would LOVE that card, but the sticker makes it SUPER FUGLY. Although...if I see a laundry tag of his I will be going for it for sure next time. I am bummed about a 2008 Ballpark Felix button /4 card...I didn't set a decent bid and the **** ended at only $56 and change ::facepalm::

I agree, I can NOT get into the Topps Unique at all....just doesnt do it for me. It looks like a bad ripoff of the 04 SP Game Used that they hurried and rushed....

This set could have been AMAZING, and in all honesty, I almost wish they had just left the Autographs off of the logo cards and moved the logo down a bit and it would have looked like the 08 Premier Logos....

[ChasHawk]

Only thing I like so far from Unique...

...and again, could do w/o the auto.

Thanks Tim...you know I'm a first name basis kinda guy

TK - I hear that...the actual card design on the hits are pretty awesome on most, but the stickers and dead space they leave on the GU parts really destroys what it could have been. I do like the Magestic Tag cards though...fills the die cut window and they are nice and simple.

Why are there so many ignorant/uninformed collectors out there?

[pujolsthomefan33]

Here is an example of what could have been...

it is almost like Topps is pushing it too much trying to cram so many things on one card........why not just leave it a bat knob 1/1 and be done with it.

 

[ChasHawk]

Where are all these bright, shiny Mantle jersey pieces coming from?

So many fakes moving from one guy to the next and they are now so far away from the crook that altered them.

Yeah, I know. But why do so many people bid on them? ::facepalm::

Hola amigos! TGIF. Not that it matters cuz I work from home but still Wow lotsa chatter today. Ecstasy pills, sugar mommas, dirty jokes... I LOVE THE MT!!!! :lol: No wonder our popularity rating is on the rise on FCB. Can't believe they haven't renamed the site MTB.

Ok enough silliness. Only thing planned this weekend is returning the van to the dealership since the lease is up. Gotta clean up the kitchen, straighten up the house, hopefully watch some football on Sunday. And I apologize for being a fan of such a terrible team. ::facepalm::

 

[darrend505]

Good Morning All! Glad that I got my SS out the other day. I need to check the DC on it.

GC congrats on 59!

Some good jokes today!

Hope everybody is having a great day!

Glad to see you in good spirits! MT is an interesting board within the board.

 

[George_Calfas]

So reading some baseball signing info, thoughts on StL being interested in Dunn if Holliday signs elsewhere? I could be on board for his 40HRs

Feeling pretty positive today. How are you George? Hope you can land #60 soon. Hows the little one? You guys excited for her first Christmas? That's always always fun. At least it was for me. Just watching them sit in all that wrapping paper flipping it around. Priceless.
