Possibly a cancelling of a World Series, or in this case a large part of the season.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04139798402099880302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28229417.post-43697665042229962002019-05-01T13:38:21.313-04:002019-05-01T13:38:21.313-04:00Excellent use of "jabroni".Excellent use of "jabroni".gregoryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17740439412693373442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28229417.post-87458293834690887332019-04-20T18:40:33.862-04:002019-04-20T18:40:33.862-04:00#TOPPSFUCKINGNOW!#TOPPSFUCKINGNOW!Chris Harrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04603530412835276148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28229417.post-25375494477332909992019-04-20T01:30:12.818-04:002019-04-20T01:30:12.818-04:00If there's another strike, Topps should be for...If there's another strike, Topps should be forced to put out Topps Now cards every day showing empty ballparks.

Topps doesn't play to the collector. They play to the addict who can't resist buying that expensive Mavericks spot in the case break, even though they have never actually watched a Mavericks game. I remember when word got out that beany babies were "valuable" and at one weekly Chicago card show in particular, there were more beany tables than card tables in no time. Ugh. Thank you for spreading the word.David Switzerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11863939159295119657noreply@blogger.com
