I have no idea how to create pages but I'll figure it out eventually godammit

If anyone has an Applejack from the recent McDonald's promotion you'd be willing to trade, you will be well rewarded.

Man, A-Rod looks like a ghoul on his card doesn't he? The last four SP's in the box were the exact same as the ones in my blaster. Oh well. It wasn't a bad little box after all, I got my first ever A&G short printed relic, a couple of other decent jersey cards and a good mix of all the other goodies. The Bigfoot mini was the highlight for me though. If I totalled everything up correctly (which I probably didn't) the Gint-a-Cuffs FINAL SCORE IS....

(drumroll)

Not too shabby! Still nowhere close to winning a second box, but that's the way the mop flops.

If you're not quite sick of A&G yet, I have a couple of other surprises for you. First, A jumbo pack that I'll post on one of the pack busting sites this week. The big coolness is a live blaster rip and probably contest that I'll do towards the end of the week. Thursday or Friday evening most likely. If you have a preference of day and time, post it in the comments and I'll take your preferences into account. It will be sometime between 8:00pm and 10:00pm most likely though. Finally, I'll do a postmortem of the box break one of these days when I get a moment.

That's enough new stuff for now though, check the poll on the sidebar to see what I have in store for you next...

ARod looks sinister, Nevsky looks skyward and kinda freaky.

Baseball in the modern age. The Masterson card is already out of date!
