Dave, I hope to park @ Alex's and hoof it to the park.
We found cheap flights, which is excellent. Our Victoria Day is the week before Memorial Day, so we always miss the overlapping holidays, but the Ms are out of town the next weekend.
Toronto is there the series before, but I can't get that time off.

Are you going to crash at Alex's? I think he has an open door policy, but usually likes it when people enter his back door. :lol:

 

[thefatguy]

LOL
maybe....if I bring my chaps, for sure!

Jesse that sucks that you can't see the Blue Jays but having a job is much better. be careful parking a car at Alex's. he is a known criminal and he had several run ins with the police last year.

It will be a rental, and all valuables will remain on my person, or at the hotel, which we will NOT be disclosing to Alex before hand

Good morning everyone.. probably get out and do some yardwork..

Jesse, if you go the an M's game over that weekend, go to a Saturday game as they have a silent auction for the Mariners Care and you can pick up a nice Game used jersey or other autographed item..

I got these at 1 game for $600 for all 3.. The Oakland jerseys are a full jersey.. pants, shirt and hat..

:lol: :lol: :lol: ...I actually forgot about that until Dave said something I wish there was a reward/bounty on me...we would make the MT rich :lol:

Alright guys...work is nuts, had to sneak in just to say something, but the tummy has been turning all morning so I am taking a sick day. Short story shorter...see you guys in a few :lol:

 

[Pinbreaker]

since I doubt if anyone saw this post last night...

So I stopped by the card shop on my way home as I haven't been there in a week or so..

He had 4 boxes of Ultimate, so I said I'll take all of them...
(just the hits)

First box..
Mike Alstott auto on one of the 1997 UD cards.. (supposed to be 1 a case)

2nd box..
Some guy named Mark Sanchez.. an Ultimate Rookie Signatures.. numbered 99/99

at this point, I look at the shop owner and ask if he is getting more in.. after what he saw me pull in the forst 2 packs, he said he would try and get some more in...

on to the 3rd pack..
Ultimate Six - Patches.. (super super thick card)
Matt Ryan / Drew Brees / Tony Romo / Reggie Bush / Michael Turner / Marion Barber III

and last box was a darn redemption..

just make sure you get the insurance on the car. his run ins all involved a car so better to be safe than sorry.

Kevin those gamers are awesome and to get 3 for that price is even better.

I don't think insurance will help...I was uninsured during my short time as Seattles Most Wanted criminal

I think you are using selective memory if you expect us to believe you forgot all about your criminal history Alex. weren't you pulled over 3 times in a week and didn't you run through a closed parking garage to elude a swat team (I may not be remembering the whole story correctly but it sounds better my may).

hope you fell better

 

[thefatguy]

Kevin, thanks for the heads up. Those are great jerseys
How many games do you get to in a year?

We were going to go to Montana for the long weekend a couple weeks ago, but our roommate was too immobile. So we said we will go May long. But we were looking at flights, and for $450CDN I can fly round trip. Just have to rent a car (which is pretty cheap) and book a hotel. Going to fly in Thu night and out Mon night.

Dave, Alex's escapades are scaring me, maybe I'll come to Pitt instead.

 

[Pinbreaker]

I normally only go to a few games here and there depending on who is coming in..

I picked up my 6 pack the other day so I could get opening day and some other games.. (Yanks, Cubs, etc..)

When I tried to get the afternoon Boston game in Sept, the only available seat was the Diamond Club.. and the Redsox are not worth that much to see..

 

[wideright]

Pretty nice hits in those boxes Kevin! Wait till Dan gets a load of that Brees patch

Alex- good to see you bro! Hope you feel better.

 

[metallicalex777]

Dave - You are correct!!! Not only that...I got my photo taken in the chair of security at the hospital ::facepalm:: :lol: I did give my best smile...pretty funny if/how people truly know me :mrgreen:

Kevin - SWEET pickups to say the least. The football Ultimate looks great...wish they did the multiple GU as patches in baseball too. The jerseys are very sharp too :mrgreen:

Dave(wide) - Thanks!!! I'll be fine, just not fun at work

 

[thefatguy]

AHHAHA, no they are not. Especially without ManRam and Bay.

BTW, nice pickups on the Ult. football last night! 4 huge hits!

 

[pghbuccos]

Jesse Alex seems to be reformed but you never know with criminals. you are always welcome to come to Pittsburgh and enjoy beautiful PNC Park. I will even pay for the game tickets.

Kevin nice hits from your break. I am not a football fan anymore but when I was Alstott was my favorite player so I really like that auot and that Brees patch is sweet.

Alex I forgot you had to have your photo taken when you were "detained".

Afternoon everybody! Got home a bit ago, worked concessions since early this morning. Heading to the mall later to get something for my Dad's birthday this next month.

Might be going to the library to do some scanning tonight!

 

[pghbuccos]
