2008 Finest Moments * Red Refractor Autograph * Brandon Phillips (9/25)Here is a sweet Brandon Phillips auto. This card is so Bradass that it has no book value due to scarcity! Nothing like having a Reds card sporting a Red Refractor finish. The only t…

Before it was turned into an ugly mess of a product in 2002, Topps Gold Label had been one of my favorite releases. The product was known for thick, glossy, colorful, refractor-like cards and levels upon levels of parallels (though that might not have been a good thing necessarily). 2001 was the first year Gold [...]

Despite breaking last year’s Allen & Ginter code and having his very own card in this year’s popular Topps release, Jason Wong has been pretty outspoken about Topps not giving him any of his cards. That left Jason the task of purchasing his cards on eBay and trying to pull off trades to get as [...]

There are many cards that I have that can be considered favorites but I have two that definitely stand above them all. Going back to 2001 I was only in second grade, so I didn’t know that much about the hobby. I recently bought my first hockey Beckett that had Ilya [...]

We consider ourselves lucky in life when someone profoundly touches our lives. This is exactly what happened to me when I met a young fellow online and became fast friends with him. It was a love of baseball and collecting that drew us together and life that made it all come [...]

Jersey retirement has been on my mind constantly over the last two months. I started to think about it quite often once the Cubs retired the #31 of Fergie Jenkins and Greg Maddux. But my fascination with one of baseball’s greatest honors did not start there. During the infancy stages of this blog I wrote an [...]

Do you remember the Topps Big baseball card set released in 1988? Man, I thought those were the coolest cards. Apparently, you can buy a whole box of them on eBay for about a dollar now. I guess they might have been overproduced or something. Anyway, they had cartoons on the back, like some of [...]

Does it get any better than the Miami Heat’s Dwyane Wade throwing out the first pitch to Marlin’s superstar Hanley Ramirez??? I don’t think so!!!
While I don’t condone the antics of Dwyane Wade in regards to his methods of sending message’s to the Heat’s front office about his future, I do admire his desire to [...]
