I will go after home run / foul baseballs hit at Crawdads stadium . Many I give to family of player . Best one was Mike Greenwell's son home run--gave to his son and he handed to his dad .. Well Sunday I was talking dad of player when his son hit HR . I got maybe thirty feet from ball when two young kids passed me and got it . Well I won't beat a kid . Offered cash for it --no . So walking thru parking lot saw him with his dad offered another baseball to trade saying I wanted it for his dad in stadium . Told NO we will keep it . What got me was the way I was told NO . Same game I handed out 100 plus packs of misc cards = normally give at home games . So IF I see them at another game I will still give the kid a pack BUT I will say something to dad. RARE RANT from me--at least I got off my mind . Sorry

Morning all! Debating on having my COMC shipped to me. Have just 14 cards there, 4 for the HOF auto PC and 10 for the Twins Ginter PC. I usually let stuff pile up to ship, but I have had 3 of them over a year waiting to ship lol

You're a good guy Barry. I won't tell anyone.

I will have someone I don't know walk up to me and ask I have a pack for someone 99% of time I will have in van . If I get batting practice baseballs I will give to a kid on birthday. We were not at Crawdad game Saturday night BUT another couple were using our seats --friends --well a lady walked behind the man gave him a hug --THEN saw it wasn't me LOL . Had a man call me over to him -I couldn't remember his name .Then asked if i knew younger man beside him .No I didn't then told I coached him 20 plus years ago . Parents will thank me for giving kids packs from weeks ago ,Bottom line =this make me feel super .

Afternoon all! Unfortunately, I am having a record day for spam calls. At least fifty so far. Something has to be done. I have had a couple of clients get scammed recently and I fear my mom will fall for something.

Afternoon all!

So nice outside, in an hour, I'll be able to enjoy it...

Thanks Barry! I know the Santana is a little costly. Haven't seen any Mauers from those year's recently, and almost wonder if the Molitor from 2016 is an SP since I've seen more numbered versions than the base version

It didn't start to warm up around here until last week. For the most part it was in the mid to high 40's.
