    You Want a New NBA Logo? Here You Go (The Kobe Bryant Post)

    February 27, 2021

    This is a weird post for me to write for two reasons. First, I haven’t watched much pro basketball since the high school. I was a Sixers fan from the 80’s through to about 2000. I lived the Dr. J era, the Shawn Bradley era and the Allen Iverson era. But my interest waned in the late 90’s and had completely dissipated by the early 2000s.

    Am I a Bowman Collector? (The N64 Controller Post)

    There are just too many goddamned Topps sets and subsets and inserts and parallels and who can keep up.  Looking at the line-up of Topps sets last year feels exactly the same as when I looked at an N64 controller…

    Mail Day: Mike Schmidt PC Additions

    I haven’t added any cards to my Mike Schmidt collection, which I’ve been growing and holding on to since the early 80’s. Most of the cards I got were newer. The only two career-era cards I picked up were the…

    Incoming Mail: February’s Going to Be a Big Month for the Collection

    I may or may not have gone on a wildly ill-advised eBay shopping spree. Went a little bonkers. Grabbed two small lots of ’61 Topps base set. I’ve decided to start building the set.  Found a good deal on a…

    To Live and Die By the Hit Chase: The Steve Sharts’ Post

    My enthusiasm for Topps S1 faded disappointingly quickly. Some of it may be that it was a reminder that I’ll probably go another summer without sitting in a baseball stadium enjoying a game. But I think most of it has…
