I know LOTS of divided households. I think that makes it fun. Well, unless someone takes it a little too seriously

Do you have a Texas connection? I see most of your teams are there

Braves and Orioles, UGA (I’m an alum), and oddly the NE Patriots. I always rooted against them but love Vrabel…he converted me. I usually root for underdogs in whatever game I’m watching. I’m happy that baseball season is here because I’m retired and can watch lots of games

That’s how I see them. I enjoy buying in and watching the breaks

My first gem mint 10. I’ve been adding to my Strider, Michael Harris, and Adley Rutschman PCs the last few months. This is the first slab I’ve added. I have a couple of autos being graded now

It might have been an article on the MLB site. He’s been friends with Reece Blankenship since they were in high school. I can’t share the link here but it’s a great article. This quote from the article says so much: “Matt and I have connected on a different plane,” Reece writes. “We each see the deeper being.” Would that we ALL could do that!

Oooh nice card! MattyO is one of my favorites. And yes, he’s a great guy who does really good work in the autism community

Nice! I especially like your Trevor Lawrence cards. One of my friend’s family vacationed with Trevor’s family so I recognized him from social media when he went to Clemson. I didn’t know he was a football star until then
-
I recognize some of those cards from my collection, too. Cool to see you have them too
-
So you grade for your PC. I’m not sure how I want to go with that. I do have a couple of cards I’m grading just for my PC but I can’t decide about some others. Do you display cards or not?

That’s exactly my take about breaks. I see it as playing the lottery and at least am getting some cards. And when I play the lottery and don’t win I get nothing. And when I buy into a break of a favorite team I’m getting cards I’d buy anyway where if I buy boxes I get more base cards for players I don’t really care about than cards I want to collect. I really do think when I buy into random team breaks it’s a lottery ticket

I can tell this is new and would like to see it take off
-
I’m not sure if I like the look of a slab for display as much as a raw card. I’m sure it’s a matter of personal preference though
-
That’s how I’m looking at it. Even in when I go for a random team I’ve gotten some cards I can sell to my local hobby shop, get something I want, and break even (or almost)

I’m enjoying this so far and can see a lot of potential. I’m glad I stumbled across it
