3rd Quarter Spectacular Update

Boxes are going to be ordered very soon. Hey guys, and as you see about that sentence, I am doing a 3rd quarter spectacular! So, on Blowout I am ordering 2 boxes today: 1 2008 Upper Deck Baseball Heroes box, and 1 2007 Bowman's Best box. They both have discounts right now, and I am really excited. Right now, I have been having tons of horrible technology luck ever since I got these:

2 Words: They suck. Anyway, I asked Mike if he wanted to split the Heroes box for $26, and he said maybe. He should be coming over in a couple minutes also. By the way, JawdysBasement isn't the only person in a basement busting cards. There is a rumor that I am moving the drewscards headquarters down to my basement where I will record videos and continue the drewscards tradition. So, I talked to Mike while he was here today and he said he was 90% sure he will pitch in and split the box with me. I will have another video slideshow for you based on the many many cards my dad gave to me for getting braces. (hint: i'm getting close to 30,000 total cards!) So keep looking for that update and now I have to work on a school project. See Ya!

1 Box of 07 Bowmans Best

1 Box of 2008 UD Heroes (split with Mike very possible)

Some Recent Stuff

Hey guys, haven't put anything up in a while, and some things have gone on recently. Here is the section that I would like to call "What's New":

- I already posted about my anger of Panini buying Donruss, but here are some things I just have acquired or thought about:
- Group Breaks would be great, but I don't know if my parents would let me or how I could come up with enough people.
- Cooperstown Is Coming Up! Can't wait to visit the Hall of Fame, stores, and card shops! I'm thinking about a tin of Sweet Spot Classic but I'm not sure from there.
- The 3rd Quarter Spectacular! Possibly the spectacular will be combined with Cooperstown, but if not, I'm looking to get a box of Topps 09, and possibly do a split with Sweeny, which could either be 2 boxes of 07 Fleer Ultra SE or it could be a box of that plus an extra pack to make it six packs of Fleer Ultra SE.
- I made a HUGE trade with Mike, (36 for 36!) just got rid of some doubles.
- Lastly, I picked up this for $3.00 shipped on eBay of my newest PC boy:

Yep, that's right. A Brian Bruney 2009 UD Inkredible Autograph Card. I met Bruney a couple years ago, and I'm glad I'm going to start to collect him. I may send out a TTM to Bruney, and I'll keeping a close look on his eBay auctions, most of which don't get a bid. If you are wondering who he is, he is the set-up pitcher to Mariano Rivera on the Yankees, and you could see his stats here.

So, 6 last things want to say to finish off the longest article I've written so far on Blogger:

- I want to try Fantasy Baseball on ESPN.com
- I just ordered a card off eBay and it should be coming soon (hint: it's from 2005 UD Heroes baseball)
- Still waiting for Brad Smith to send me back the TTM I sent out.
- Still waiting for my Red Hot Rookie Redemption #13
- I'm not going to have a PC of Robinson Cano or A-Rod, but will collect some of their cards.
- I picked Louisville to win it all, but I want Syracuse

Kim Kardashian Makes the cover of this Year's Spectrum

This scares me. Hopefully not in 25 years they won't be making their millionth Americana. Spectrum is a horrible product, but putting someone like Kardashian on there rather than her boyfriend, Reggie Bush, who even on a baseball product would look better than her, starts to waste money. Check out this autograph checklist for the celebrities:

Lou Albano
B-Real
Burt Reynolds
Cheech Marin
Chris “Kid” Reid
Ed O’Neill
Henry Hill
Ian Somerhalder
Jodie Sweetin
Khloe Kardashian
Kim Kardashian
Kris Jenner
Kourtney Kardashian
Linda Hamilton
Maggie Grace
Missy Hyatt
Martin Klebba
Audrina Partridge
Matt Prokop
Shanna Moakler
Tammy Sytch
Tommy Chong
Torrie Wilson

Who would buy a box of this? There are no autos I would want in this entire checklist. Again, Baseball players please. Like, for example, Mike and I's box of Heroes football. We got more Tony Iommi cards then Jets. We got more Steve Gay cards than Giants. That is ridiculous. Upper Deck, why don't you please just take all of that garbage out of my baseball product and make a whole product that has all that junk in it so you guys that hate this article can go out and buy one. Think about this:

At first this was a baseball card:

Now this is what we are buying:

Ok, so think about that next time you want one of these, unless you hate this article. See Ya!

Notice how it says "Spectrum of Stars" in quotations! Spending 80 bucks for Cheech Marin. I'd rather buy a case of Yugi-oh!
