Trending This Week In My Hobby Week 9

Fourth straight week with this returning segment, let's see where we are at in comparison to last week.

But first....

To remind you about what this segment is about, since I collect so much, there is always a main focus I have on a weekly basis. Sometimes these focuses go on for weeks and sometimes they are short lived. These posts will help guide you in what I am seeking for weekly.

Hit And Run

 

It's been a while since I have had a spark to add to my Ken Griffey Jr collection, but it came and came fast recently.

I acquired a new one in a trade on Twitter and all of a sudden, I am on the Junior adding train again.

So, I am looking to trade for new Griffey's to add to my collection and the easiest way to see the ones I need is to check out my spreadsheet that you can find HERE. But, if you don't want to take the time to do that, just know I don't have a lot of new product ones. If any.

If you have some and are looking to trade, hit me up with some pictures at sportcardcollectors@hotmail.com. I have plenty to trade from every team.

Thanks and keep on swingin'!

90's Card Of The Week:1997 Fleer Game Breakers Drew Bledsoe

4-2

 

Yeah, I am just a little behind on posting this, but the NY Knicks gave a butt whoopin' to the Celtics in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Semis and are in the Eastern Conference Finals against the Pacers.

This series was very shocking to me as I didn't expect the Knicks to advance especially after getting swept in the regular season.

It was just as shocking as the Pacers beating the Cavs the way they did.

It should be a good series with this long-time rivalry, probably won't be 90's Pacers/Knicks good, but it should be a close one.

Let's Go Knicks! Game 1 tonight!

6,300

This is the 6,300th post on Sport Card Collectors.

I just wanted to say thanks to all of you for coming back and reading. I wouldn't be posting if you weren't reading which means this number never would have been met.

There are some more posts to come as I finish up May with some new ones as promised.

Sorry, that today's post was a short one, but I made it count.

Rodney's Cardboard:2024 Finest Black Refractor Autograph /25

(Previously posted on Big Blue Cardboard. All Rodney's Cardboard posts from here on out will be cross-posted)

It's Sunday and it's time for a new Rodney's Cardboard.

This is actually one of my newest Rodney adds in the mail.

I have about five of the refractor autographs I need from the 2024 Finest set for Rodney. This is the second lowest numbered one I have in the run, I also have a red /5.

I actually like this one more than the red because I think the blue against the black background looks solid. More than the red does.

There are still 6 more to go in the run also including another black one which is still /25 but has like a square type of shape background.

Right now, as I type this, there are no more needs listed so hopefully some will pop up soon. I missed out on the /10 oil spill parallel which stinks, but there are still nine others that may pop up. It's when you miss a 1/1 that is the real kick.

Come back next week for another NEW Rodney's Cardboard! Have a great Sunday!

Caption This Card!

For those of you that are new to this, just Caption This Card (keep it clean for my younger readers) in comments.

Have fun!

Da PMG's!

 

We go from Parks and Recreation autograph chase, now to another chase.

I have been adding to my Upper Deck Marvel Purple Achievement PMG's the last couple of years. They are not only great looking cards, but, brings back that PMG fun that I never had as a kid.

I also really got myself nerdy a couple of years ago watching all, well most some were kind of boring, Marvel Movies.

This version of the PMG's feature characters from the movie and not the animation which is why I like these ones more. Upper Deck does do both versions but I connect more with these.

Do you have any I don't? Wanna trade? Hit me up at sportcardcollectors@hotmail.com.
