IF YOU READ THE LAST POST - AND YOU PROBABLY DID CAUSE IT'S THE SAME 6 GUYS EVERY TIME - YOU'LL REMEMBER I COMPLAINED ABOUT ENDLESS BLOG POSTS TAKING FOREVER TO WRITE. IF YOU FOLLOW ME ON TWITTER - AND YOU SHOULDN'T BECAUSE TWITTER IS DEPRESSING NOW - YOU'LL KNOW I GO ON AND ON ABOUT DIGGING THROUGH DIME BOXES FOR CHEAP THRILLS
AND THEM * KABLAM * I GOT A WONDERFUL STUPID IDEA. INSTEAD OF SPAMMING TWITTER WITH DIME BOX PICKUPS OR TRYING TO WRITE A BLOG POST WITH 100 SCANS IN IT, I'LL THROW ALL THE DIME BOX SCANS IN A FOLDER AND RANDOMLY PIC A FEW TO POST. NOW I CAN SHOW OFF ALL MY WORTHLESS CRAP WHILE SAVING TIME. GONNA TITLE THE POSTS WITH A RUNNING TOTAL OF THE AMOUNT I'VE SPEND SO ONE DAY I'LL LOOK UP AND REALIZE I COULDA BOUGHT A NEW LAPTOP WITH THE AMOUNT OF MONEY I'VE BLOWN. LET'S SHOW OFF SOME CARDS!!!!
1993 YOO-HOO WILLIE MCCOVEY
WHY DID NO ONE TELL ME YOO-HOO HAD TRADING CARDS IN THE EARLY 90S??? THERE WERE TWO YEARS OF THESE THINGS! I COULDA BEEN SOOOOOO FAT. FOR SOME REASON THESE THINGS DON'T LOOK AWFUL WITH THE YELLOW BORDERS UNLIKE 1991 FLEER. MAYBE IT'S BECAUSE THE YELLOW BORDER IS SURROUNDING WILLIE MCCOVEY INSTEAD OF JOEL SKINNER. BACKS ARE PRETTY NICE TOO WITH THE RED & BLUE STRIPEY STATS. NO CARD NUMBER THOUGH, WHICH IS ODD. I WOULDA COMPLAINED LOUDLY IN 1993 WHILE CHUGGING MY EIGHTH YOO-HOO OF THE DAY.
2018 TOPPS BABE RUTH POSTSEASON PREEMINENCE
2018 DONRUSS ANDREW MCCUTCHEN DIAMOND KINGS
GREAT GOOGELY MOOGELY 2018 DONRUSS IS UGLY. THE FRONT DESIGN IS UHHHHH INTERESTING? BUT IT SURE AIN'T A DIAMOND KING. WHERE'S DICK PEREZ WHEN YOU NEED HIM. THE BACK HOWEVER IS THE TRUE LAZY GARBAGE. BOOOO PANINI. BOOOOOOOOO! ANDREW MCCUTCHEN IS AWESOME THO AND I WISH THE BRAVES HAD SIGNED HIM. YEAH I'M ROASTING MY PRECIOUS DIME CARDS WHAT I PICKED OUT MYSELF BY HAND. HANG ON, THAT'S ABOUT TO CHANGE
1987 RALSTON PURINA DON SUTTON
LOOK AT THIS GORGEOUS GODDAMN CARD
CROSSED BATS WITH A GIGANTIC STAR FEATURING JERSEY NUMBER
STRIKING RED BORDER
CYAN NAME PLATE WITH TEAM AND POSITION
MAJESTIC PORTRAIT OF DON WITH HIS SILVER CURLS
ANGELS CAP AIRBRUSHED WITH VANTABLACK SO NO LIGHT CAN ESCAPE THIS CARD
YOU KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YEAR THIS CARD IS FROM
A BACK CHOCK FULLA STATS
ALL THIS AND THE CARD IS IN ALMOST NEARLY GEM-MINT 10 CONDITION
THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT DIME BOXES ARE FOR GOD BLESS AMERICA
2018 DONRUSS JOEY VOTTO ELITE DOMINATORS
LETS FINISH UP WITH THE SHINIES. THAT BOX WITH ALL THE TOPPS INSERTS HAD A TON OF DONRUSS INSERTS TOO. NOW ALL WORTH A DIME! THIS SUCKER IS VERY SHINY IDEED AND WILL SATISFY THE MOST DISCERNING MAGPIE. JOEY VOTTO IS ONE OF THOSE FORGOTTEN SUPERSTARS BECAUSE HE PLAYS WITH THE REDS WHO HAVE BEEN VERY BAD FOR A WHILE BUT NOT REALLY DUE TO HIM. LIFE IS UNFAIR. AND LOOK! NUMBERS! ON THE CARD! EVERYONE LOVES CARDS WITH NUMBERS ON THEM. AND THE BACK LOOKS DECENT TOO! HEY DONRUSS! DO THIS ON THE BACK OF YOUR BASE CARDS TOO YOU LAZY FARTKNOCKERS

Oh man, I really hope no bloggers start in with that Patreon nonsense! Although if anyone wants to donate to my PayPal account via the F/F... :)
That Sutton with all of those age lines is glorious!
I like Diamond Kings but that design doesn't do it for me. They've lost their way. But I digress. Fun post and cards. YooHoo cards! Who knew? The Don Sutton and Ruth are nice pick ups as well.
