“My hypocrisy only goes so far”
I'm your huckleberry...A Little Bit Jealous
I have to admit, there are times when I'm a little bit jealous of other collectors. I'm not talking about people finding monster hits or 1/1's, I think we're all a little jealous of that. I mean that sometimes I'm envious of collectors with, by comparison,...

I'm on "creative" empty these days. The change in calendar year hasn't really done anything (not that it would) to fix that. I'm more worried about, literally, everything else in life before I'm concerned with making a baseball card. That said, I've always considered...

That's an insane number, especially for someone who blogs fairly sporadically and without consistency. It's funny, I was staring at this blank post editor for a couple days now, not knowing what on earth to write about. There were so many negative topics: birthdays (I...

I don’t even know where to begin. I can already tell that this post is going to be all over the place. I’ve been writing it in my head for a week and a half now.

CARDS Nacho Grande Group Break Bring me all the Bennys! Matt "Doc" Perry, Creative Idiot, Texas June 27th, 2017 It's taken me far too long to scan these. The break Chris (Nachos Grande) did to start off the summer was back at the beginning of June. That tells you what...

In May Bowman Mega Boxes were apparently all the rage. I noticed a post on Reddit the other day about how someone “got in” on the Mega Box craze before the price sky-rocketed. I was confused. I had bought two of them with zero fuss. I could have made serious bank. What did I do? I opened them of course, and here are the results…
