A QUICK Update...UPDATED

Today STARTED off great. I was on time for my 8 AM class. I stopped at the post office and I had 7 envelopes/packages waiting for me. I was in such a great mood that I stopped at the card shop and bought binders and pages for my 1965, 1968 and 1969 Topps sets, plus another pair of binders for 1951 Bowman and 1994 Topps Finest. Now that I have the binders, my want list won't be far behind. The card shop dude had 22 packs left in his hobby box of 2009 O-Pee-Chee and he gave me a decent deal on them, so I bought them all. I had got a 36 count box of 1992 O-Pee-Chee Premiere on Monday. All 58 packs of O-Pee-Chee will be added to the group rip (which already includes 118 packs) IF all of the slots fill up. While I was at the card shop my employer called and asked me to come in and work... Money is good, so this isn't a bad thing, but I was already working tonight. I got called in for 2 more shifts, so I am halfway through the first of 3 consecutive shifts. No rest for the wicked, er troll. Okay, gotta get to work. Here is how the team slots are looking. Lets fill those up tonight, shall we? Also, some of the packs in the rip will include basketball, hockey and football. I need a list of who is interested in what sports so I can determine a system of who gets what. I wont be answering e-mails till tomorrow. Here is the list of team slots...This is who is already signed up for the next rip and their status.

Everyone who is in, please send me an email at bacontowne at yahoo dot com. I probably wont reply till Friday. I am wiped out already... Back to work...
By the way, the CC card has nothing to do with this post, its just a great card. Thanks Wicked!

  1. If push comes to shove, I can take on another team or two, just to help get the break filled more.

    Just let me know and then we can work out what you want me to send ya.

    I have a nice, large stack of Rays salivating to be mailed out ;)

  3. I'll go Indians if you want. I don't think I have anything on your specific wants list, but I know I was building a small Rays pile for you. If your Indians are worth about 15-20 Rays (and some rookie cards of guys who ended up Rays) then I'm in. If not then I guess not haha. Good luck though!

  4. I need to find something cool to send you as my payment. I like anything football related, but I don't collect much basketball or hockey so I don't have a preference.

  6. I must have missed a post somewhere so I'm utterly bewildered, but tell me what the price is and I'll bite. I'll take the White Sox unless Steve jumps in and convinces me to switch teams.

  9. I'm sending you some more stuff that should be worth 1 if not 2 more spots. I don't want 2 more teams just just want you to break all the packs.

  10. Since they don't appear on the list, I'd like to sacrifice my self and lay claim to any hockey that may or may not be pulled from the "...Also, some of the packs in the rip will include basketball, hockey and football" portion of your post.
