BIRTHDAY BOOLSHEET BLASTER: PART 9 - 50 CENT REJECTS N-O-P

THE CARD SHOW WAS INSANELY SUCCESSFUL, I GOT SO MUCH COOL SHIT FOR CHEAPS AS HELL. BUT I HAVE A HUNDRED PICS TO TAKE AND CROP AND UPLOAD AND THEN I ACTUALLY HAVE TO TYPE WORDS AND THAT WILL TAKE FOREVER SO YOU GET SOME JUNK BOX GARBAGE TODAY. BUT YOU'RE IN LUCK! IT'S SHINY JUNK BOX GARBAGE. HERE ARE THE N, O, AND P NAME CARDS THAT GOT NOPED OUT OF THE FIFTY CENT BOX

GRAIG NETTLES


POOR GRAIG GOT SCREWED. HE'S ONE OF THE BEST THIRD BASEMAN OF ALL TIME BUT ONLY ONE THIRD BASEMAN IS ALLOWED IN THE HALL OF FAME PER DECADE. TWO TOPS AND HE WAS THE THIRD BEST. THERE WERE A BUNCH OF GRAIG CARDS GETTING THE CHOP AND THIS ONE FROM 2000 YANKEES LEGENDS SET IS THE SHINIEST


THERE WERE SOME EXTRA LEGENDS CARDS OF NETTLES IN THERE INCLUDING 2003 ARCHIVES FAN FAVORITES AND 1993 TED WILLIAMS, TWO SETS I JUT COMPLETED. AWW YEAH, THAT'S FORESHADOWING BABY. YOU'LL HEAR ABOUT THAT IN MAYBE SIX MONTHS. 2006 FLEER GREATS OF THE GAME I DON'T HAVE AS MUCH. I THINK SOMEONE LEFT A COMMENT OFFERING SOME IN TRADE BUT MY LIFE IS COMPLETE CHAOS AT THE MOMENT AND I BARELY HAVE TIME TO TYPE, TRADES ARE WAY ON THE BACK BURNER, SORRY

PAUL O'NEILL 


MOAR 1965 PRISTINE! I'M HOPING TO ACCUMULATE A BINDER PAGE FULL OF THESE


THERE WAS AN ODD MIX FOR PAUL, AS I ALSO GOT A COUPLE STADIUM CLUB AND SWEET SPOT CLASSIC CARDS OF THE DUDE. I'M NOT CERTAIN IF THESE WERE FROM THE O'S OR THE YANKEES SECTION OF THE FIFTY CENT BOXES

JOHN OLERUD


METAL UNIVERSE CARD BACKGROUNDS DO NOT ALWAYS MAKE SENSE BUT THEY USUALLY LOOK REALLY COOL. THAT IS DEFINITELY THE CASE WITH THIS CARD AS OLERUD IS BEING SURROUNDED BY LIGHTNING SWIRLS. IT IS UNCLEAR IF JOHN IS BEING ATTACKED BY AN ELECTRIC TORNADO OR IF HIS MIGHTY SWING IS CAUSING A LOT OF STATIC ELECTRICITY ON HIS POLYESTER UNIFORM


THERE'S ALSO A BIG PILE OF JUNK WAX ROOKIES, WHICH ARE ALMOST WORTH AS MUCH AS THE PENNY SLEEVES THEY ARE IN. IF YOU'RE WONDERING IF OLERUD IS ONE OF THE LARGEST PLAYER PILES IN THE BOX THE ANSWER IS NO, NOT EVEN CLOSE. JUST WAIT UNTIL WE GET TO THE LETTER H

BOB OJEDA


THIS BOB OJEDA 2002 ARCHIVES CARD MIGHT HAVE BEEN IN THE FIFTY CENT BOX SINCE 2002. IT WAS IN ONE OF THE SLEEVES THAT IS STARTING TO CRUMBLE TO BITS. I ONLY NEED FOUR CARDS TO COMPLETE THIS SET AND SADLY BOB IS NOT ONE OF THEM

ROY OSWALT


YAY! ROY ADDS TO MY EVER INCREASING SUPER THICK HIGH-END CARD COLLECTION PICKED UP FOR PENNIES. ROY WAS SO GOOD THEN FELL OFF A CLIFF. I'VE GOT A LITTLE OSWALT COLLECTION HIDING IN A STAR BOX SOMEWHERE, HE WAS ON A TON OF INSERTS IN THE 00S

TONY PENA


THERE SHOULD BE A LITTLE ROOM OFF IN A CORNER AT THE HALL OF FAME DEDICATED TO CATCHERS WHO WERE ABLE TO BE AN EFFECTIVE STARTER FOR OVER A DECADE. TONY SHOULD HAVE HIS OWN DISPLAY IN THAT ROOM. THIS IS ALSO ONE OF THE VERY FEW OF THESE FIFTY CENT CARDS THAT FILL A NEED OFF A WANTLIST

ALEJANDRO PENA


THERE ARE INFURIATINGLY NO BRAVES IN THE 2004 TIMELESS TEAMS SET BUT ALEJANDRO IS A BRAVES LEGEND SO I'M CLAIMING HIM. SORRY DODGER FANS, HE WON A WORLD SERIES WITH US. I KNOW HE WON TWO WITH YOU, JUST SHUT UP AND LET ME HAVE THIS

DAVID PRICE


MAN DAVID PRICE REALLY IS A WASHED UP FIFTY CENT BOX REJECT ISN'T HE. MAN I'M SO OLD. HE'S GOT A CY AND A RING THOUGH, YOU CAN KICK HIM OUT OF THE STAR BOX BUT YOU CAN'T TAKE THAT AWAY FROM HIM. I DONT' CARE WHAT THE LABEL SAYS, THE NEWFANGLED GOLD LABEL CARDS ARE NOT GOLD LABEL WORTHY. THEY NEED TO BE PLASTIC AND EXTRA SHINY AND THICK AS A PACK OF CHROME. THE CORNERS OF THESE THINGS CAN ACTUALLY GET DINGED! UNACCEPTABLE

HUNTER PENCE


AWW YEAH THIS IS THE GOOD STUFF. I HAVE AN UNNECESSARY GRUDGE TOWARDS LINEAGE BUT DAMN DID THEY GET THEIR INSERTS RIGHT. THIS 1964 STAND-UPS DESIGN HAS BEEN SWIPED FOR MANY INSERT SETS BUT 2011 LINEAGE IS THE ONLY ONE THAT DID IT ABSOLUTELY RIGHT. THE ONLY WAY IT COULD BE BETTER IS IF THE CARD STOCK WASN'T GLOSSY

I'd love to find cheap boxes of 2011 Lineage to open. The base card is pretty terrible... but the inserts (3D, 64 Giants, and Stand Ups) were awesome!
