Nice article, Patrick, highlighting the different types of collectors in the umbrella of our wonderful hobby. Entertaining footnotes by David, as well. Haha, I love and approve of the Tasmanian devil image as we rip packs, and that was a total reality for 7-8 years before we cooled off a little as wives and kids came into the picture.
And although I’m a ripper at heart, I do think I have a sprinkle of almost every other one in there, as well (other than flipper-I very rarely sell anything even in general).
Cool “Cards That Make Us Happy,” also. Had no idea Ainge could play football, too. Pretty interesting, cause you look at him in his basketball playing days and it certainly doesn’t scream out “elite athlete,” to me, anyway.
Thanks, fellas -- I had never tried them before, so my HOPE was they'd post NEXT to the footnoted part, sort of like how Grantland used to have them. I loved that, little asides. After doing it, I felt like it was asking the reader too much to scroll up and down every paragraph or so. So I have to figure out a nice happy-medium there, maybe like group some of the comments together or something. Anyway, thanks! They were fun doing -- especially with Patrick's article, which I enjoyed very much!
Im dying laughing over with my two Children Series 1 and Series 2 😂🤣😂 this was a great article and the footnotes were great! We both got great laugh out of this!

Well done, as always, fellas!
Hahaha very true about Ainge's non-elite athlete bod! Great point! Thanks, Scott!
The footnote adds were excellent, the sold it so well.

Is there anything better than comedic sports writing? The best of both worlds.
Yep! He crushes it
Hahaha thanks, fellas!
Excellent article and advice!
