I believe this would be my best pack break of this year so far. And it’s a retail pack! I pulled an on-card auto and a parallel numbered to only 299. Don’tcha just love Bowman?
#121/299
I love that I pulled a base version of the parallel I pulled.. now I have a partial T. J. set!
The other cards out of the pack:
#3 Eli Manning
#10 Tom Brady
#66 Andre Johnson
#124 Rey Maualuga RC
#152 Duke Robinson RC
#165 Jonathan Luigs RC
Group Break over at Bad Wax
June 16, 2009
I took park in a group break over at Bad Wax which was for 2003 Fleer E-x Baseball. 20 packs up for grabs for $5 a pack and I took one. About 20% odds of pulling a game used card, which I got. I discovered I liked this series a few months ago while going through Trail Blazer cards at a card show a few months ago and I came across some of these Fleer E-x cards, which are made of clear plastic with graphics pasted to the front of the cards and print on both the front and back to give it a little bit of a 3D effect. Anyways, here’s what I got:
Serial numbered 401/500. Rafael is always kept in my collection when pulled, but this card doesn’t really strike a chord with me too much, it’s available for trade if there’s anyone dying to have it.
I liked watching him play when he got a lot of TV time here in Portland while playing for the Mariners. I have no idea where he went to!

eBay Find: Cheap Stadium Club box
June 1, 2009Over the last few days I have been CRAVING bustin’ a full box of cards.. I would settle for almost anything! I haven’t busted a full box since I was a kid with 1993 Topps!! So I searched for what looked like an entertaining set that might have some nice inserts that wasn’t too old and came up with this. About $18 including shipping, should be here in about a week. I’ll post the highlights of course.
Card of the Day: 1970 Topps #110 Bob Moose
June 1, 2009Moose threw a no-hitter against the Mets in September of 1969. He was killed in an auto accident heading to Bill Mazeroski’s golf course on his 29th birthday.
