Sports Card and Memorabilia thread

The fanatics blasters I think might be the best format followed by hangers. Regular blasters and mega boxes are garbage.

 

my 2 weren't awful, but i wouldn't call them good.

 

Eh, base Crews & Wood. Diamante Drew Thorpe.

 

I was pleasantly surprised to pull these from a blaster box.

 

Quit while you're ahead

Someone will need to explain to me why a card of Gerrit Cole in a Yankees uniform looking like CC Sabathia is a score.

 

Is it a misprint with no name and stuff on the front of the card?

 

Guessing it’s a SP

 

It's a borderless short print

 

Ordered a retail box of 2024 NFL Prizm from Dicks Sporting goods for $120. Saw a decent amount of people were getting decent cards out of them. This will be the first sealed product I’ve ripper in probably a year. Hoping I don’t get skunked and all my hits are retired players or old vets who are washed up.

 

I have $100 from dicks in gift cards from Christmas, gotta figure out the best way to use it

 

Just get rid of retired players and coaches at least. I also don’t get why inserts are not valued, I have a Binder I keep of just inserts and parallels and I think some of those are better cards than a green base card.

 

I actually enjoy when a coach gets his Prizm "rookie." I've picked up a few Matt LaFleurs already. That said, not sure Tom Flores really needed a card this year.

Definitely agree on the retired players. Vince Ferragamo never needs another Prizm card.

 

imagine not owning a gold Andy Reid of each of the last two years

 

i won't stand for the Ferragamo slander!

 

I think i saw andre ware is in this year's prizm, he has like 5 career nfl passing tds

 

Any Matt Rhule rookies floating around out there?

 

My biggest financial mistake of the 2010s was investing strictly in Willie Taggart parallels

 

Is all aces in topps a case hit now? I always loved the insert but it looks fancier this year and prices are high

 

They are

 

I'm thinking about grabbing one of those all aces Jobe. Odd I don't think he has a base card but he has autos and an all aces

 

Another odd choice is Jackson Chourio doesn't have a base card but he's one of the rookie gold cup guys.

 

So much Ferragamo for you

 

Fav stuff from my PSA sub

 

Watched a Series 1 hobby case break tonight, that had two supers.

Non auto Logan O'Hoppe

Auto Jace Jung RC


Case also had a Skenes golden mirror, an Elly blakata (or whatever that ssp insert is called), a true photo, and at least one /5 card.

No Frank Thomas no names or autos though, because I had the White Sox, and fuck me.

Got this out of a Topps Hobby. Cant figure out what the equipment/uniform is from, feels like plywood.

Also got this /5 Jeremey Pena City Connect relic.

 

Topps Chrome football looks like shit
unlicensed pro cards will always be meh at best

Prizm licensed non-auto 2024 QB rookie stuff will hold way better than Chrome rookie autos

Pelican that said, awesome box. I like that you’re newish to the hobby and just rip, post, and pray. Reminds me of what the hobby should be.

 

Didn’t they advertise it as having on card autos? Every pic I’ve seen was a sticker

 

Yes
