On the Fifth Day of Cardmas, My Mistress Gave to Me...

5 Jersey Things,

4 Packs of Stuff,
3 UD Heroes,
2 Goodwin Blasters,
and a Baseball Gem of the Game!

What crazy ass person buys 5 of these damn things?



Well, me.


That means I have 50 packs and 10 "authentic" jersey/card sets.


5...4...3...2...1...cards:

I didn't know Charles de Gaulle went on to become Rory's grandfather on Gilmore Girls.  Catalanotto traded places and nobody cared.  Mickey Mantle, you sexy beast.

Hard to be a Star Attraction with no shoulder.  Varitek one-hands the trophy like a stud.

Team USA jersey surprise.  Wow, a team USA dude who is actually still playing...in the MLB, too!

uh thank you thank you.

2007 Opening Day cards are awesome.  Generation Now is meh, but still better than A-Rod's Road to 500.  The Streak is awesome.  Verlander is in that Tigers card somewhere.

Mickey Mantle just lost "sexiest man alive in this post" to the Wizard of Oz.

Dang, another jersey card.  Craziness.

uh thank you thank you thank you.

I love these.  I want them all.

Gold Nyjer.  Prince Eats Owns the Game.

These cards are purty.  #/499.

I want these, too.

Rirruto?

Beautiful cards.

Holy hot damn another relic and it's from a movie.

That's right ladies.  George Clooney wore this.  It smells delightful.

Over the top and wonderful.

Sorry Mick, Ozzie still wins.

Stickers=gold.  That clark is a great looking card.

Seriously does anyone have one of these? Found one, but no ball.

Nope, wasn't born yet.  Sorry.



Okay, now for the cards you've been waiting for.

Going oldish with the Kevin Brown card and newish with the Maddux.  Love it.

Ionix Piazza and Diamond Debuts Prior (mounted the wrong way, of course).  Digging deep for these.

Dang these aren't half bad.  Ichiro is always a good get, and who honestly thought I'd get a junk wax Darryl Strawberry with hint of pinstripe?

Goodness gracious I got two A-Rods and one is a ridiculous patch.  This is so fun.

Last two...

SWEET! I already have one, but I don't care.  I love it love it love it.

Last but certainly not least...

Oh Mickey you sexy beast, I'm so sorry I ever doubted you.  Thank you for forgiving my ignorance and granted this very authenticly questionable iffy swatch that absolutely made my day.

Screw 5 Golden Rings...I'll take 5 Jersey Things any day.


...although I guess if I took them another day I'd have to have more of them...



...or less of them if I moved to a smaller number day...



...yeah.
