Have You....

Have you checked out my other blogs yet??

That 90's Sport Card Blog features cards of the 90's. I post a card up 2-3 times a week to bring back those fond memories of 90's collecting. I cover all sports and non-sports. It's fun to take a trip down memory lane.

Hampton's Cardboard Craze is also mostly 90's and focusing on Rodney Hampton cardboard. If you are a NY Giants fan or just like to see some cool 90's football cardboard, check it out. These cards are not the ones featured on Sunday's With Rodney.

And The Card Bin. I usually just post up random cards not featured on here, but recently I have added two new segments in Faces In Sports Cards and Guess The Auto Tuesday that I thought some of you may enjoy. I haven't gotten much interaction on those yet, but hopefully if I point it out you guys will join in. If not, may be segments I bring on here later on.

Also, to end this post. Check out Pull Tab Awareness week on Baseball Card Breakdown blog. You can check that out HERE. It's a very important read if you trade or ship things out.

Have a great Wednesday!

They're Back....

In the past week or so, I have decided to revive a few of my older blogs and give them some life.


With time always being a factor, I had given up on a few of my other blogs. But, recently, with the re-downloading of the Blogger app, I have found that it simply takes seconds to post on these blogs. However, the difference between them and this blog, they are simply card pics. If you are into that kinda thing, I suggest you follow them. They each have their own representation/style so maybe some you will follow and others of you won't. I guess it depends if you just like to see different pieces of cardboard or not.

Now here is a quick breakdown on them.

Up first, The Card Bin. This blog at one point was going to replace Sport Card Collectors. But, there was just something with this blog I couldn't let go so that blog became non existent til now. That blog features cards from all sports and non-sports focusing on newer cards that I may not have posted on here before. You can locate that blog, HERE.

Second, Hampton's Cardboard Craze. A blog that focuses on my Rodney Hampton PC. The cards featured on there are much different than what I post on here. The ones on here are inserts and on there would be a main focus of base cards. Still a lot of fun to see however. If you wanna check that out, go HERE.

Last but not least, one of my favorite blogs that I was sad to give up posting full time on is, That 90's Sport Card Blog. This blog features cards from all sports and non-sports only from the 90's. All years will be featured. If that floats your boat, check that one out HERE.

I won't post on these daily like this blog. They are more when I have a minute type of blogs, but some weeks may have consecutive days of new card pics posts. Please add them to your blog read lists if you can or haven't already in the past. Would be appreciated!

Also, if you guys have any other blogs let me know and I will check them out and add you to my read list. Like I say a million times, I am always into adding new reading material.


Hope everyone is having a great weekend!

Anyways, if you are still blog following and reading, I hope you check out the newest Hampton Cardboard Craze post. It involves a card that is 1:45 packs of finding!

90's Niche Football Card Blog Trade: GIANT Trade Mail Day!

As I posted on Hampton Cardboard Craze this morning, I recently pulled off a big trade with 90's Niche Football Card Blog and acquired not only some new Hamptons, but some other wants as well.

Today's Part 1 of the mail day focuses on the NY Giants portion. Tomorrow is some 90's insert goodness and the Hampton part you can only find on Hampton Cardboard Craze. So I guess you better get to following that blog.

Let's get to looking what I got.

Some great Giants here from a variety of brands. I love the Charles Way Brilliants.

Eli Manning and Michael Strahan inserts and more Dave Browns. I still have nightmares sometimes about him haha.

 

New pickups for Shane Vereen, some Valor I didn't have and adding new Tiki Barbers is never a bad thing. 

 

Cruz "bulleted" insert, Nassib and Collins rookies here among other great cards. 

 

Tyrone Wheatley Action Packed rookie and silver rookie parallel. Couldn't believe I didn't have these after all of the Action Packed I bought back in the 90's. I wished Panini would give these a go. 

ODELL! 

McCaffrey rookie. 

 

And the biggest surprise of the mail day, this LT jersey card. I had seen him post it on Twitter but he claimed he was holding onto it for awhile. I had no idea this was coming to me. Crazy awesome! 

I will be posting the rest of the trade mail day tomorrow so stay tuned especially if you are a fan of 90's or shiny cardboard.

I haven't quite figured out how to title the new posts on Hampton's Cardboard Craze on here yet. I want them to be catchy, but I don't want to be misleading to have a post about leading you to another post. Hopefully I will get that figured out. These posts won't be on here forever, just trying to build the excitement around the new blog.

So yes, this is another NEW post on Hampton's Cardboard Craze. So first, caption the card on here then go check out this new post. Or just check out the new post it's completely up to you.

NEW BLOG! Check It Out! (Plus Notes)

Yes, I know I have stated on here a few times about over-blogging and how I take on way too many projects, well, hopefully I haven't made that choice again as I have created yet another blog. I know, you guys can start to yell at me.

After having 3 failed attempts at running a second blog, I do believe this time is different. This is new blog is a blog specifically for my Super Collecting of Rodney Hampton and it won't have new posts daily (least I don't think so) like this one. That will take a lot of the pressure away as this blog remains my top priority. That may change later on as I may decide to dedicate my time to that one over this one. We will see.

Hampton's Cardboard Craze will be a "if I have time I will squeeze a post in" type of blog. I see other bloggers take this approach as well and it should work for me like it does for them.

Here is the first post that I just posted on there today. Check it out as it explains what the blog will be about.

Introduction To The Hampton Cardboard Craze

Hopefully it will grab some of your attention as I know many of the bloggers/readers that follow me are mainly baseball fanatics. I have been working on this blog for over a month slowly adding things and ideas I might do and wanted to make sure I did it right before I released it. I plan on getting a few posts put together on it soon that way I start to get some content on there.

By now you are probably wondering what I meant "plus notes",well, those are about this blog.I have been noticing a few changes in terms of this blog viewings on here to see what is interesting to you guys and what doesn't work. That will be taken into consideration for changes I may make later on as I hope to have more NEW content/stories by April. I have plenty of fresh ideas to add in. For now, the stuff I have been posting is from Sept-Dec that I am way behind on. Yup, you are reading older posts and it will stay that way til a little after March.

Another thing I wanted to note is that I have also been tearing through and sorting like mad in my collection as I have been re-doing the way I sorted things. It's a lot, and I mean A LOT, of work to undo a collection to re-organize it all over whether you have 200 cards or 2,000 cards or even 200,000 cards. I have finally decided to do everything by team instead of by brand, year and number and tearing that apart was heartbreaking at first, but a relief after I dug in. I will put together a post on this BIG project at some point.

I have had fun being able to take time out to re-sort and seeing some of the cards I have picked up over the years. I must also say I am glad in more than one way I made the choice to re-organize as I found some cards that will make for some great posts later on when things are caught up.

I hope everyone has a great rest of their week and hope you have enjoyed recent posts on here. Thanks for reading and please give the new blog a look (follow, link add) and leave me your thoughts.
