One of my favorite ways to enjoy the hobby is to make hobby-related videos-- I realize not everyone feels this way but hopefully this sheds a little humor on the whole licensing dilemma with the MLB, and of course the NFL and NBA. (Somehow it just seems the worst for baseball though, despite UD's shortcomings) Enjoy!

Please advise as to whether you'd like to pursue litigation against Upper Deck, MLB, NFL, and the NBA.

Looooooosiana!
Four thoughts

1) You need to clean your hallway if you're going to rub yourself against it like that.
2) You need to clean your toilet.
3) You need to get a girlfriend. (Or boyfriend, whichever way you swing.)
4) Good effort.

it's all hyperbole


I am sure that things are that messy for dramatic effect. Check out his other videos, he puts a lot of effort into his work.

why? topps has done nothing but hit home runs thus far
They haven't made videos like this though.Nice cheap shot :D .I figured with every post complaining and bitching about something I figured I would try the positive route this time.

Thanks for the support! The vids do take a good chunk of time. I know its not genius best ever, but I don't get all the haters and quip-machines who want to insta-stomp something that obviously takes some time, especially when (imo) it contributes in a new way to the hobby. The support is definitely motivating, ty.

Alright, you got it! I used the dirtiest tijuana toilet I could find. I broke that pack too, afterwards.

1. Any good pulls from that pissed-on pack you broke?

2. There's always NCAA cards from UD coming...and only from UD.

3. Loved the video and thought it might be the funniest one of yours I've seen to date. Keep up the good work.

After getting piss all over my hands... nope, nathan. I was hoping for a huge hit with piss all over it, for a good story but I missed as usual.

NCAA cards...yeah, not bad. I'm more looking forward to some mutations I'm hoping will be made, ala the bug/ cards from Goodwins and the Champs fossil cards. Hitting a Phil Helmuth auto out of box of that stuff was cool (and kinda lucky). Thanks for the support!

LOL Great stuff! You have real comic timing and a really good eye for effective comedic editing.
This a big compliment, considering the guys you quoted in your sig-tyvm. Btw,Zach used my glasses as a prop in his act once, at a stand up show in hollywood. He's awesome.

Mike!

We crossing some wires, I understood you dug it. I got the message-- I was just saying, your compliment was a breath of fresh air from internet powertrippers. Maybe its a freedom card board thing? (the support)
