00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:51,240
Speaker 2: I'm doing great. How are you doing?

7
00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:55,119
Speaker 1: I'm doing good, man. I actually yesterday was my first

8
00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:56,880
day of retirement. Believe it or not.

9
00:00:56,960 --> 00:00:59,159
Speaker 2: Really, Yes, welcome back.

10
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:01,920
Speaker 1: Thank you, thank you very much. Fifty years of working

11
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:02,759
and I'm done.

12
00:01:03,039 --> 00:01:07,359
Speaker 2: All of us Generation X kids are kind of jealous

13
00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:08,439
of you right now.

14
00:01:10,239 --> 00:01:14,239

Speaker 3: How you doing, man, I'm doing great, Logan, and congratulations.

16
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:19,560
And I'm retired too, so I joined the club.

17
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:22,840
Speaker 1: Yeah it's nice man. I went out and mountain bike

18
00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:25,640
yesterday and it had pizza and it was a great day.

19
00:01:25,799 --> 00:01:28,239
Speaker 3: Yeah. Just enjoy the day. Do whatever you want. But really,

20
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:30,879
when you think about retirement, this is what we've been

21
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:34,239
waiting for for all our lives. So enjoy every single

22
00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:36,079
day of it, and things that you've never done before,

23
00:01:36,159 --> 00:01:37,599
go out and do it. That's why I like to

24
00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:40,719
go do nature walks and things like that.

25
00:01:40,719 --> 00:01:43,719
Speaker 1: That's cool. Yeah, that's the plan man for sure. So

26
00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:46,000
we got a few comments this morning. Good morning everyone

27
00:01:46,159 --> 00:01:51,480
from Man City Brew. Abel says, good morning, Man City Brew.

28
00:01:51,519 --> 00:01:58,920
Where's the freddie Gs ball? Let's see congratulations Thanks Larry,

29
00:01:58,959 --> 00:02:02,159
appreciate that. Uh the Mangenie Collection.

30
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:07,280
Speaker 4: Orlando vote for John president, and.

31
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:10,560
Speaker 1: Frank says, good morning guys. So good morning everybody. So

32
00:02:11,479 --> 00:02:13,960
I wanted to start off real quick. I wanted to

33
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:15,759
show a couple of little things I found on the

34
00:02:15,759 --> 00:02:19,639
Internet that I thought were funny. One of them was, uh,

35
00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:22,039
and I'm not trying to poo poo on the Yankees

36
00:02:22,199 --> 00:02:24,960
or or anything like that, but I did see this

37
00:02:25,039 --> 00:02:27,159
on Twitter, and I thought, I just thought it was

38
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:31,199
really funny. It says breaking it's announced that Yankee superstar

39
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:33,719
Aaron Judge will be in Tomes Square this New Year's

40
00:02:33,759 --> 00:02:36,159
Eve to help drop the ball. I thought that, thought

41
00:02:36,199 --> 00:02:37,120
that was kind of funny.

42
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:43,479
Speaker 2: And then h Logan'll be here all week. Make sure

43
00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:46,199
you tip your waitress.

44
00:02:45,199 --> 00:02:50,360
Speaker 1: Try to that's right, I'm right here. And uh, then

45
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:54,039
there was this, uh this Halloween related this Stormtrooper meme.

46
00:02:54,479 --> 00:02:56,800
I saw this and I spit out my sweet tea.

47
00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:58,319
When I saw it, it was just I just thought

48
00:02:58,319 --> 00:03:00,400
it was funny. You got you know, I guess you

49
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,560
could substitute the A Team in there instead of Stormtroopers,

50
00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:06,080
but anyway, I just thought those were funny. So let's

51
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:09,080
let's get started. You know, I know the big elephant

52
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:11,240
in the room is going to be the World Series.

53
00:03:12,439 --> 00:03:16,960
My question to you guys is what kind of uh

54
00:03:17,439 --> 00:03:20,360
what kind of effect does the World Series have on

55
00:03:20,439 --> 00:03:23,520
trading cards? And does this really bump a few players up?

56
00:03:23,599 --> 00:03:26,719
Does this bump a few players down? What do you

57
00:03:26,719 --> 00:03:28,000
guys think about that?

58
00:03:28,599 --> 00:03:33,360
Speaker 2: Well? I think this definitely bumps up Freddy Freeman's cards,

59
00:03:33,719 --> 00:03:37,599
mostly because I think he cemented his place in Cooperstown

60
00:03:37,719 --> 00:03:42,280
with this series. Wow, well, maybe give maybe give him

61
00:03:42,319 --> 00:03:44,879
a few more years of playing time, but I think,

62
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:50,479
going the way his career had been going, I think

63
00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:53,719
this series, uh yeah, I think it's this got him

64
00:03:53,759 --> 00:03:57,159
into Cooperstown. So wow, what do you think in Orlando?

65
00:03:57,639 --> 00:04:02,719
Speaker 3: Well, good morning Stukes the Dallas Card Show. I really

66
00:04:02,759 --> 00:04:06,080
think that Freddy Freeman did prove himself and I think

67
00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:08,319
he just he was the shining star I think of

68
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:11,919
the series for sure. And you know is he a

69
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:14,599
surefire Hall of Famer. I think the years and see

70
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:17,360
what happens. I think he needs a little bit more numbers,

71
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:21,160
but definitely he's on track. You could see that. You know,

72
00:04:21,199 --> 00:04:24,480
everybody's finally you know, woken up to him and see him.

73
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:26,120
He's been a great player. He's been a great player

74
00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:26,639
for the Braves.

75
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:28,480
Speaker 4: He's all his career has been great.

76
00:04:28,759 --> 00:04:31,160
Speaker 3: But I think now when you put him in in

77
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:35,040
the Shining Star of the World Series and then does

78
00:04:35,079 --> 00:04:37,920
what he does, Yeah, that's gonna put him up in

79
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:41,759
the top tier players up there with with Otani, with

80
00:04:41,959 --> 00:04:45,360
Judge and the other player that I have to say

81
00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:49,079
kind of made a mark also was was Stanton. I

82
00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:51,959
think you know, he even though the Yankees lost, I

83
00:04:51,959 --> 00:04:55,839
think he showed a lot as being a clutch player

84
00:04:56,319 --> 00:04:59,519
in the playoffs and the World Series, and I think

85
00:04:59,519 --> 00:05:03,040
he's going to ge a lot of consideration, and especially

86
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:05,160
if he gets the five hundred home run and I

87
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:07,000
think he's close to that if he can stay healthy

88
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,439
a couple more years, I think, yeah, you're gonna see

89
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:13,279
uh Freeman and Stanton right up there.

90
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:17,000
Speaker 1: So now that Otani has a ring, does this just

91
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:18,439
put him into the stratosphere.

92
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:22,240
Speaker 4: Now he's already been in Yeah, okay.

93
00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:25,759
Speaker 1: Right, how much the stratosphere?

94
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:28,279
Speaker 3: How much higher can you go? I mean, look at

95
00:05:28,319 --> 00:05:31,720
look at his ball that sold an investment firm I

96
00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:35,959
think in Taiwan for four and a half million dollars.

97
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:37,480
Speaker 4: I mean, how much higher can it?

98
00:05:37,519 --> 00:05:40,920
Speaker 3: Actually can he go? I think he's I think he's

99
00:05:40,959 --> 00:05:42,959
at the about the top that he can get at

100
00:05:42,959 --> 00:05:43,399
this point.

101
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:46,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was, uh, I was impressed. I was impressed

102
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:50,480
with everybody on the Dodgers. And you know, you had

103
00:05:50,639 --> 00:05:53,199
you had those Yankees fans trying to pull off Mookie

104
00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:53,959
Bett's arm.

105
00:05:54,519 --> 00:05:57,000
Speaker 4: That was crazy.

106
00:05:56,199 --> 00:05:58,120
Speaker 1: So it was very sad.

107
00:05:58,439 --> 00:06:01,600
Speaker 2: I mean they led a couple of Philadelphians into that.

108
00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:09,720
Speaker 3: It was a total embarrassment for New York fans to

109
00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:12,040
see that. I mean not only pulling the ball out

110
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:14,560
of his glove, but grabbing his other hand. Come on,

111
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:16,639
I've never seen something like that before.

112
00:06:16,959 --> 00:06:20,240
Speaker 1: I mean, they could have injured him, and I'm surprised that,

113
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:23,759
you know, you know, can he follow assault charges? Maybe?

114
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:25,879
I don't know. I mean, would that even be warranted?

115
00:06:25,879 --> 00:06:29,240
Do you think he's taken it too far?

116
00:06:29,759 --> 00:06:33,720
Speaker 2: Yea, too far? I think I think they had their

117
00:06:33,759 --> 00:06:38,120
tickets revoked for the rest of the series. I don't

118
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:40,480
know if they were season ticket holders, but I think

119
00:06:41,319 --> 00:06:44,920
those seats would be revoked permanently if they were.

120
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:48,079
Speaker 1: So Yeah, I just I hated to see that. I

121
00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:50,600
just I mean the way they were been in his arm,

122
00:06:50,639 --> 00:06:52,199
back and everything. I just thought, Oh my gosh, if

123
00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:54,399
they injure him, this is going to be this is

124
00:06:54,439 --> 00:06:57,560
going to be really bad. But yeah, there's no call

125
00:06:57,600 --> 00:06:59,800
for that kind of behavior. I mean, I don't care

126
00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:02,519
how rabbit of a fan you are. That's that's just

127
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:03,959
way over the line in my opinion.

128
00:07:04,079 --> 00:07:06,839
Speaker 2: It's just a baseball for crying out loud.

129
00:07:07,399 --> 00:07:08,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, it goes.

130
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:12,600
Speaker 2: With their stand for like what ten douars.

131
00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:16,399
Speaker 3: How desperate people are to have like even souvenirs like that,

132
00:07:16,759 --> 00:07:19,639
you know, And you could go and buy a game

133
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,519
ball at the souvenir stands now, and you could buy

134
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:24,959
them on fanatics right now. I mean, Fanatics is already

135
00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:27,439
selling well it's a little bit of a rip off.

136
00:07:27,839 --> 00:07:33,160
Autograph they promoted as autograph team Ball from the Dodgers,

137
00:07:33,199 --> 00:07:35,360
right that's the way they put it. If you go

138
00:07:35,399 --> 00:07:38,040
on the website, and I think they want like three

139
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:41,079
thousand dollars. But then when you when you go in

140
00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:44,240
it and click and it says guaranteed to have at

141
00:07:44,319 --> 00:07:46,519
least seven to ten autographs.

142
00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:48,160
Speaker 4: Seven to ten autographs.

143
00:07:48,279 --> 00:07:48,959
Speaker 3: That's not even.

144
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:54,199
Speaker 2: That's not even. But it's probably not going to include o.

145
00:07:55,319 --> 00:07:57,240
Speaker 4: No, it doesn't.

146
00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:00,800
Speaker 3: It had a fready Freeman, but that was But you

147
00:08:00,839 --> 00:08:02,639
know the other thing is that, you know, you can

148
00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:04,959
just go buy a game ball. I think they're something

149
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:06,839
for twenty five bucks or something like that, just the

150
00:08:06,879 --> 00:08:11,360
plain World Series Dodger ball. But to fight for.

151
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:15,360
Speaker 1: It like that, Yeah, yeah, well I know that. Uh

152
00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:18,920
let me go back to the comments. Yeah, see here, Yeah,

153
00:08:18,959 --> 00:08:21,879
it's uh White Sow's Tom. He says they didn't want

154
00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:25,199
the ball, they just wanted him not to catch. Yeah,

155
00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:27,879
And I think that's that's that's spot on.

156
00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:30,720
Speaker 3: Already glove.

157
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:33,799
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, he'd already caught it. They were just I

158
00:08:33,799 --> 00:08:34,879
don't know, I don't know what the.

159
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:38,720
Speaker 2: Squadject, but the umpire did get the call, right.

160
00:08:39,919 --> 00:08:44,039
Speaker 1: So you know, in the spirit of the World Series,

161
00:08:44,039 --> 00:08:48,320
what about the kid in Game one that caught Freddie

162
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:50,840
Freeman's walk off Grand Slam ball. When you think about that,

163
00:08:50,879 --> 00:08:54,080
I think that's a feel good story. Uh, apparently when

164
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:56,879
they got the ball. No, there was no fighting, Nobody

165
00:08:56,960 --> 00:09:00,759
was going crazy. Everybody was cheering and had before the kid.

166
00:09:02,519 --> 00:09:03,879
I think, I think it was just a great thing.

167
00:09:03,879 --> 00:09:05,080
What do you guys think about that?

168
00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:06,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's how it should be.

169
00:09:06,799 --> 00:09:10,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, if the ball's coming right through someone, I'm giving

170
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,919
the guy a chance instead of jumping, everybody jumps in

171
00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:15,840
like a pile. That's what happened with the fifty fifty ball.

172
00:09:16,159 --> 00:09:17,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, but still.

173
00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:18,440
Speaker 4: Fighting over it.

174
00:09:18,519 --> 00:09:21,440
Speaker 3: But yeah, I mean it's it's always great to see

175
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:22,960
father and that that's what it's all about.

176
00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:25,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's the kid. I think his name is Zach.

177
00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:28,759
Congrats to him and kudos to him, and uh, that's

178
00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:31,159
that's super cool. They they're saying, of course, you know

179
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:34,360
how they talk about all these different you know, special

180
00:09:34,399 --> 00:09:36,679
balls that are hit that this is probably you know,

181
00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:39,480
maybe a six six, seven figure ball. I mean, it's

182
00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:42,600
incredible to think that something like that, you know, it's

183
00:09:42,639 --> 00:09:44,480
gonna be worth that. But you know, I think that

184
00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:46,559
was what the first time that that had ever happened

185
00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:47,480
in the World Series.

186
00:09:47,639 --> 00:09:49,960
Speaker 2: I don't know about seven figures.

187
00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:51,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know about seven figures, and yeah, maybe

188
00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:53,600
six figures then maybe six.

189
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:55,519
Speaker 2: So it's a good story.

190
00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:56,799
Speaker 4: It's a great story.

191
00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:58,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's those are the kind of stories you want

192
00:09:58,960 --> 00:09:59,519
to read about.

193
00:09:59,759 --> 00:10:02,480
Speaker 1: Yeah. Absolutely. And and you know what was funny is

194
00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:05,840
his parents had told him that they were taking him

195
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:08,039
to the dentists and they surprised him with World Series

196
00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:11,039
tickets instead. So I just think that's so cool.

197
00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:13,240
Speaker 3: That's that's awesome.

198
00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:17,080
Speaker 1: Imagine imagine being a ten year old kid and you're going, oh, man,

199
00:10:17,279 --> 00:10:20,480
going to the dentist. Then your parents go, hey, here's

200
00:10:20,519 --> 00:10:23,720
the World Series tickets, and and then all of a sudden,

201
00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:25,360
you'd be going I'd be going crazy if it was me.

202
00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:27,639
You know, I can only imagine what a ten year

203
00:10:27,639 --> 00:10:28,799
old me would have would have done.

204
00:10:29,519 --> 00:10:31,679
Speaker 3: You know, that's once in a lifetime. That's a memory

205
00:10:32,039 --> 00:10:34,960
for the rest of his life and his kids and

206
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:35,480
grand kid.

207
00:10:35,519 --> 00:10:36,120
Speaker 4: Here about that.

208
00:10:36,039 --> 00:10:38,759
Speaker 1: School, Oh yeah, oh yeah, I've heard they've they've done

209
00:10:38,799 --> 00:10:41,399
a media tour in LA and all this kind of stuff.

210
00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:43,600
So I think it's I think it's just it's just

211
00:10:43,639 --> 00:10:46,919
a great story. Yeah, catch up on a few comments here.

212
00:10:47,519 --> 00:10:51,039
Yankee Yankee fans have beenentories for things like throwing batteries

213
00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:53,879
and beer cans of players yeah, would you rather have

214
00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:57,279
once in a lifetime World Series game ball or a

215
00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:00,840
tiny fifty I don't know. I probably take the County

216
00:11:00,879 --> 00:11:03,519
Ball since it's gone for so much money. I'm retired

217
00:11:03,519 --> 00:11:04,519
and I could use the money.

218
00:11:04,879 --> 00:11:07,559
Speaker 3: Yeah, I guess for the money wise, but for the memories.

219
00:11:07,639 --> 00:11:10,279
You know, that game like that would be just something.

220
00:11:11,159 --> 00:11:13,120
If I got that, I.

221
00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:20,399
Speaker 1: Wouldn't all right, so switch gears, I guess. This week

222
00:11:20,799 --> 00:11:25,559
Alan Ginter came out and it's a pretty big checklist.

223
00:11:25,639 --> 00:11:27,159
And of course, you know, you have all the different

224
00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:30,679
eclectic people in there, all the you know, I guess

225
00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:32,840
what there there's all kinds of content creators as other

226
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:37,600
sports celebrities and stars. Yeah, it's it's it's pretty cool. Actually,

227
00:11:37,639 --> 00:11:40,519
that's something I'll buy a blaster or two of Alan Ginter.

228
00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:43,759
I mean, I don't collect baseball cards anymore, but you

229
00:11:43,759 --> 00:11:46,039
know I do. I do like Alan Ginter just because

230
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:48,440
of the variety of things you can get in there.

231
00:11:49,519 --> 00:11:52,360
One of the things that they have in there this year,

232
00:11:52,879 --> 00:11:55,759
and I think Chris, you guys we were talking in

233
00:11:55,799 --> 00:11:58,639
the green room before this, uh that they've had some

234
00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:02,240
Westminster doll cards or some doll cards in the past,

235
00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:07,399
but this year they have a Westminster Doll card insert Orlando.

236
00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:08,840
What do you what are your thoughts on that. I

237
00:12:08,879 --> 00:12:09,759
think it's pretty neat.

238
00:12:10,039 --> 00:12:11,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's cool. I mean I like dogs.

239
00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:15,320
I've had dogs and I actually bought the set on

240
00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:18,440
eBay of the previous one that they had before. It's

241
00:12:18,519 --> 00:12:22,320
just you know, their little little two six sized cards

242
00:12:22,519 --> 00:12:24,919
and I like that. I mean, you know, I like

243
00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:27,440
Allen and Ginter. I like the Good One Champions too.

244
00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:29,559
They're all kind of the same thing. They have all

245
00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:33,679
these mix of different types of sports and dogs. One

246
00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:37,320
you have like sandwiches and just a lot of cool stuff,

247
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:39,879
you know. I kind of enjoy it. I think it's

248
00:12:39,879 --> 00:12:43,799
a it's a good mix. You can get some pretty

249
00:12:43,799 --> 00:12:46,279
good hits on. There's some pretty good autographs too, I've

250
00:12:46,279 --> 00:12:47,519
heard in there, Chris.

251
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:51,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a I think one. I think one autograph

252
00:12:51,879 --> 00:12:53,879
that I think people are going to be chasing after

253
00:12:54,039 --> 00:12:59,440
is Tim Robinson, the comedian who is on the show

254
00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:01,519
I Think You Should Leave, which I don't know if

255
00:13:01,519 --> 00:13:06,159
you've ever seen that before. He has one character where

256
00:13:06,519 --> 00:13:09,639
there's one skit where he's dressed up as the hot

257
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:13,039
as a hot dog guy and he crashes like the

258
00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:18,200
Wienermobile into the side of the building and everybody's looking

259
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:20,840
at him, and he's like, why are you looking at me?

260
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:25,159
We should all work together because we're all trying to

261
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:28,600
find the guy who did this. It's kind of funny.

262
00:13:29,279 --> 00:13:32,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think of a bow from one million cubs.

263
00:13:32,279 --> 00:13:34,440
He opened a case and I think he got like

264
00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:38,080
a Daddy Yankee autograph or something like that. Oh yeah,

265
00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:41,320
a lot of odd stuff like that. It's pretty cool.

266
00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:43,360
Oh they have Mantlin Clement.

267
00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:47,159
Speaker 1: That's that's that's gonna that's big right there. Yeah, makes

268
00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:48,720
me want to go out and buy a blaster box.

269
00:13:48,759 --> 00:13:51,360
You never know. So one of the things that you're

270
00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:55,960
talking about the Westminster Dog Kittle or Dog Club ship cards.

271
00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:58,879
There are also also memorabilia cards. Check this out. This

272
00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:01,559
is a one of one of Frankie uh a k

273
00:14:01,759 --> 00:14:06,720
A Sponge Mackenzie. But that's that's pretty neat. They have

274
00:14:07,879 --> 00:14:09,679
look like part of the ribbon. So I thought that

275
00:14:09,759 --> 00:14:11,440
was really neat. And of course here here's some of

276
00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:14,919
the bass cards and there there there's uh rufus and

277
00:14:14,919 --> 00:14:19,600
then we've got uh yeah yeah a k a rent

278
00:14:19,639 --> 00:14:23,480
in ten for those of you who are older. But

279
00:14:23,639 --> 00:14:27,840
I I really like uh, Alan Ginter. This year. They

280
00:14:27,879 --> 00:14:32,360
also have a Memphis boy in there. They've got John Daily.

281
00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:41,279
Speaker 3: Look at that. Yeah, you know they have autographs of Daily.

282
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:43,440
I don't. I didn't look at the autograph list, but

283
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:46,000
there's a lot of autographs just all the types of

284
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:48,279
different people from all walks of life.

285
00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:52,399
Speaker 1: Yeah. I asked the guys at Tops at the Tops,

286
00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:55,840
Uh you know that the Tops whatever it was, that

287
00:14:56,039 --> 00:14:59,039
the thing they have at the National. I've asked him

288
00:14:59,039 --> 00:15:00,639
the last couple of years, say how can I get

289
00:15:00,679 --> 00:15:03,919
on an Allen and Ginter card? And They're like, probably not,

290
00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:06,840
probably can't get on one. Well, if I had enough money,

291
00:15:06,879 --> 00:15:09,039
I probably could get get home one. I'm sure. I

292
00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:10,720
think it would be cool to be on a Allen

293
00:15:10,759 --> 00:15:13,639
and Ginter card for sure. But yeah, this this John

294
00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:17,120
Daily card. I've heard that there's a Chase card in

295
00:15:17,159 --> 00:15:27,080
there where he's smoking a heater, the variation. But yeah,

296
00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:29,399
I like Alan Ginter. I will probably when they hit

297
00:15:29,399 --> 00:15:32,200
the shelves at Target, I will probably buy a blaster

298
00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:34,200
and do a video on it and have some fun

299
00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:36,600
with it. But I really do like it. So, uh,

300
00:15:36,639 --> 00:15:40,960
let's check out a few more comments here real quick. Uh, Philly,

301
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:46,600
Jo says, Spud, Yeah, Spuds Mackenzie. And then uh, let's

302
00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:52,960
see here Stukes Santa Daily. Yeah, he just looks crazy

303
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:55,679
out there, and of course he always has those really

304
00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:59,480
loud pants where they're all kinds of crazy psychedelic colors.

305
00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:02,360
Speaker 4: But I'll tell you, the man can hit a golf far.

306
00:16:05,639 --> 00:16:08,279
Speaker 1: Baby. Yeah. I wonder if he has a rip card.

307
00:16:08,279 --> 00:16:11,000
Speaker 4: By the way, they got in there, they've got the

308
00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:11,799
rip cards too.

309
00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:16,960
Speaker 1: Yep, they got the rip cards double triple Yeah, oh yeah,

310
00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:18,799
I saw that. Is that the first time they've had

311
00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:19,720
triple rip cards?

312
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:22,000
Speaker 2: We've had them in the last couple of years.

313
00:16:22,039 --> 00:16:28,000
Speaker 1: Okay, I didn't know, so allright, Mookie says, if you.

314
00:16:27,679 --> 00:16:38,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, there you go. All right, somebody's beeping, is that you, Chris?

315
00:16:38,399 --> 00:16:41,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's me. I gotta I gotta step out for

316
00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:42,480
just one second.

317
00:16:42,799 --> 00:16:45,600
Speaker 1: I'll be right back, all right, Chris. Chris is heading

318
00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:49,320
out at the door for a little bit. Yeah, all right, So, uh,

319
00:16:49,559 --> 00:16:52,919
let me go back to my subjects here and my topics.

320
00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:54,440
Speaker 4: And see what we're going to talk about.

321
00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:56,919
Speaker 1: All right. Here, here's just a fun one real quick.

322
00:16:58,159 --> 00:17:01,759
Did anyone give out any card for Halloween? I did not.

323
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:05,880
Speaker 3: I gotta tell you. If we got five groups, I'm

324
00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:08,079
talking two or three kids at a time, that was

325
00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:10,200
a lot. I didn't even give out a full bag

326
00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:14,279
of candy. Yeah got candy. My wife was already saying

327
00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:18,119
back and returned some of this candy. Yeah, we just

328
00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:20,200
didn't have anything. I think what's happening now is a

329
00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:22,279
lot of the kids are going to different events.

330
00:17:22,599 --> 00:17:22,720
Speaker 2: Uh.

331
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:25,240
Speaker 3: You know here in the neighborhood, they had like in

332
00:17:25,319 --> 00:17:27,640
the clubhouse where I'm at, they had just a big

333
00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:30,400
Halloween party over there, so everybody hung out there instead

334
00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:32,440
of walking the neighborhood. So I did not give out

335
00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:34,759
any cards. I have done that before.

336
00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:36,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've done it in the past.

337
00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:36,599
Speaker 3: You know.

338
00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:39,680
Speaker 1: I did it back when donners had their bags of

339
00:17:39,839 --> 00:17:41,799
cards that you could give out. That's the last time

340
00:17:41,799 --> 00:17:43,400
I did it. You know that kind of dates me.

341
00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:45,799
That's what back in the nineties. That's thirty years ago.

342
00:17:46,079 --> 00:17:46,359
Speaker 2: Yeah.

343
00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:49,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, But what I can show you what I did

344
00:17:49,039 --> 00:17:51,640
do I'll show you my the candy I gave out.

345
00:17:51,519 --> 00:17:59,440
Speaker 3: Here real quick, Hey you go, ketchup, got ketchup and Jelly.

346
00:17:59,839 --> 00:18:03,160
Speaker 1: I gave out quite a few tricks along with my treats,

347
00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:06,599
So it was fun. I think the neighborhood kids may

348
00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:09,000
be on to me. But luckily my house has not

349
00:18:09,079 --> 00:18:12,680
been toilet paper though that's that's probably that's a good thing.

350
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:15,079
But I do it every year. It's it's just something

351
00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:17,119
I've been doing, like for years and years and years.

352
00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:22,519
But yeah, here are the packs that Panini and Pokemon.

353
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:24,440
I guess I don't know who makes Pokemon cars. I

354
00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:27,680
guess that shows my ignorance on that. But these are

355
00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:29,559
the packs that you could have bought this year to

356
00:18:29,599 --> 00:18:31,759
give out. I know that I saw online quite a

357
00:18:31,799 --> 00:18:35,839
few people were giving out like either the score of

358
00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:40,079
Treat for the football or the Haunted Hoops for basketball,

359
00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:43,400
and Pokemon, and from what I heard, Pokemon was probably

360
00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:46,400
the most popular of all the packs that people were

361
00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:46,960
giving out.

362
00:18:47,279 --> 00:18:50,240
Speaker 3: Well, Pokemon has become really really big for the kids.

363
00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:54,119
If you look at the hobby for the Pokemon, it's

364
00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:57,240
just about seventy five percent of their kids versus the

365
00:18:57,400 --> 00:18:59,759
sports you know where you have mostly adults.

366
00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:04,240
Speaker 4: Yes, and you check you know, the grading CSG.

367
00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:07,400
Speaker 3: I think eighty percent or ninety percent of the cards

368
00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:12,079
they've graded are Pokemon and even PSA. I think almost

369
00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:16,880
half a million of their cards they graded were Pokemon cards. Yeah,

370
00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:18,680
that is just going crazy.

371
00:19:19,079 --> 00:19:22,839
Speaker 1: It has gone crazy. You know. Pokemon and TCG cards

372
00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:26,160
I think are literally half of PSA's business right now.

373
00:19:26,319 --> 00:19:29,799
Speaker 3: Yeah, and PSA this was a huge month for them

374
00:19:29,799 --> 00:19:33,599
in October. They graded almost one and a half million cards.

375
00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:35,000
Speaker 1: That's amazing.

376
00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:37,359
Speaker 3: It's I think it's crazy.

377
00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:40,319
Speaker 2: It is that.

378
00:19:40,519 --> 00:19:43,759
Speaker 1: That's actually another subject that I wanted to talk to

379
00:19:43,759 --> 00:19:48,079
touch on PSA. They're on track, I think to grade

380
00:19:48,079 --> 00:19:53,880
almost sixteen million cards this year. That's that's incredible. From

381
00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:57,799
what I understand, I think they graded in twenty twenty two.

382
00:19:58,079 --> 00:20:00,440
I think they graded like ten million, and then in

383
00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:04,599
twenty twenty three they did like thirteen So now they're

384
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:07,640
up to sixteen million, so they are cranking it out.

385
00:20:07,799 --> 00:20:11,000
Speaker 3: Yeah. And those two years were the pandemics too, and

386
00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:13,559
during the pandemic, I mean right after the pandemic where

387
00:20:13,559 --> 00:20:17,640
everybody was sending stuff in. But it's just wow. My

388
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:22,359
worry is that, you know, how much is too much?

389
00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:24,599
You know, when you think about it and you think

390
00:20:24,599 --> 00:20:26,480
about it. We talked about this a little bit in

391
00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:30,160
the green room. When you think about how many let's say,

392
00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:34,640
Otani cards are being produced just this year alone with

393
00:20:34,759 --> 00:20:37,240
the tops now, I mean you've got what five six

394
00:20:37,319 --> 00:20:40,759
hundred thousand every time they produce the tops. Now when

395
00:20:40,799 --> 00:20:43,440
they have the base card tops, base I think is

396
00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:46,920
over a million base cards of Otani. And then you've

397
00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:49,519
got the variations and so on and so on. I

398
00:20:49,519 --> 00:20:52,319
mean you're talking. I mean I would estimate three to

399
00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:56,480
five million Otani cards year alone. How many of those

400
00:20:56,480 --> 00:21:01,240
are being graded collected logan? That's my concern, you know,

401
00:21:01,319 --> 00:21:03,559
And we were talking about that. How many of those

402
00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:07,319
can the hobby handle? You know, how much is too much?

403
00:21:07,599 --> 00:21:09,960
Speaker 1: Yeah? I agree, you know, and talking about how much

404
00:21:10,079 --> 00:21:13,440
PSA is graded. Uh, the thickness of a slab is

405
00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:17,400
like a quarter of an inch. If you take sixteen million,

406
00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:22,519
that's what four million inches. That's like three thousand, three

407
00:21:22,599 --> 00:21:26,880
hundred and thirty three feet of slabs if you if

408
00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:30,319
you shot them up. I mean think about it. Mount

409
00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:32,920
Everest is only twenty nine thousand and thirty two feet,

410
00:21:35,559 --> 00:21:37,680
So how many Mount Everest is that? That's that's like

411
00:21:37,759 --> 00:21:38,960
over ten Mount Everest.

412
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:39,599
Speaker 3: Yeah.

413
00:21:39,759 --> 00:21:43,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's incredible to think that that that in California,

414
00:21:43,799 --> 00:21:46,440
they're just shipping that many cards out all, you know,

415
00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:48,920
every day. I mean, it's just amazing to me.

416
00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:52,119
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean the the amount of plastic that's being used.

417
00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:55,039
Oh yeah, stuff, and you know, and they got to

418
00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:58,359
end up somewhere, and what's happening. And I'm going to

419
00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:00,200
a card show right after this and going to a

420
00:22:00,839 --> 00:22:03,400
card show and I'm going to see it again full

421
00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:06,480
of slabs, ten dollar slabs. Tons of cards that are

422
00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:10,079
like dollar cards now or some even less than dollar cards,

423
00:22:10,279 --> 00:22:12,359
or were slabed a couple of years ago, are now

424
00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:16,079
being sold for five dollars in the slabs and instead

425
00:22:16,079 --> 00:22:18,960
of being dollar boxes, slight dollar slabs.

426
00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:22,559
Speaker 2: Yeah, and nobody's buying them, you see.

427
00:22:22,799 --> 00:22:27,000
Speaker 3: Now the kids and you know, we talked about a

428
00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:30,119
little bit earlier in the green room there about John

429
00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:33,480
Newman's article, and Chris you talked about that too, that

430
00:22:34,279 --> 00:22:38,240
the kids now collecting these cars or they're just looking

431
00:22:38,279 --> 00:22:41,640
to move the cards. And when you see kids nowadays

432
00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:46,000
at the card shows, their whole collection is in the vilbox.

433
00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:49,359
That's their entire collection, you know. And when they go

434
00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:52,200
up to the dealers because they're looking to move cards

435
00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:54,680
or trade or sell or whatever, you know, we'll say

436
00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:57,279
to them, well, which cards, you know, the personal ones

437
00:22:57,319 --> 00:22:59,880
that you don't want to sell, no whatever, give me

438
00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:02,599
the money's right, I'm moving them. I mean, these kids

439
00:23:02,599 --> 00:23:06,000
are keeping cards through three weeks, two three months. You know,

440
00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:09,119
are people going to hold on to certainty these cards

441
00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:12,480
like me as a collector, five, ten, twenty thirty years

442
00:23:12,799 --> 00:23:16,119
until I retire, like we just did, you know? Is

443
00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:19,240
that gonna happen? Is collecting still a thing? That's that's

444
00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:20,799
the question I want to put out there.

445
00:23:21,519 --> 00:23:24,759
Speaker 2: And you see these kids, and I wrote about this

446
00:23:24,799 --> 00:23:29,000
for Hobby News Daily last month. You know, they're all slabbed,

447
00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:35,079
they're all chrome stocked cards because you know who wants paper.

448
00:23:35,519 --> 00:23:38,720
There's not a single card in their little Pelican box

449
00:23:38,799 --> 00:23:43,440
that's older than they are. And these kids, you know,

450
00:23:43,759 --> 00:23:46,839
we talk about ten xing the hobby. This is not

451
00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:50,119
the way you ten x the hobby because these kids,

452
00:23:50,319 --> 00:23:52,599
they're going to be in for a rude awakening in

453
00:23:52,599 --> 00:23:56,640
about three to five years or maybe maybe five or ten.

454
00:23:56,880 --> 00:24:00,319
But there's going to come a day where a lot

455
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:03,240
of these cards. No one's even gonna want these cards.

456
00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:07,440
I mean, just the sheer. Even if you have like

457
00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:12,720
a PSA ten of a decent player, there's just so

458
00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:17,000
many of them out there. Nobody's gonna want them. And

459
00:24:17,039 --> 00:24:20,480
even if you have like a low number parallel of

460
00:24:20,519 --> 00:24:24,599
that player that's at a PSA ten, there's just so

461
00:24:25,079 --> 00:24:30,240
many parallels out there that no one's gonna want these cards.

462
00:24:30,319 --> 00:24:38,400
So again, are we raising a new generation of collectors

463
00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:40,759
or not? Because I don't see a whole lot of

464
00:24:40,799 --> 00:24:45,039
these kids slumped over a dollar box going through all

465
00:24:45,039 --> 00:24:48,640
the stacks and trying to knock off a checklist. I

466
00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:53,359
think is in it for the wrong reasons, and that's

467
00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:55,880
trying to make an easy buck exactly.

468
00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:58,400
Speaker 3: I think that's the point. Now, Is anybody gonna want

469
00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:02,000
those cards and mature parallel and stuff. Yeah, I think

470
00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:04,640
people will want them, but at the right price or

471
00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:07,359
something like that. They'll be collected in the future when

472
00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:09,799
the price goes down so much that hey, you know what,

473
00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:12,119
these parallels look pretty good for a couple of bucks.

474
00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:15,599
But you know, when you think about how many autographs

475
00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:19,240
do need of when before example, I mean for a collector,

476
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:23,200
you know, but not even when come on, I mean,

477
00:25:23,559 --> 00:25:27,039
who's going to swallow up a million because eventually it's

478
00:25:27,039 --> 00:25:28,559
going to be a million win autographs.

479
00:25:29,079 --> 00:25:32,400
Speaker 2: I think Evan from goch gts made this point. He

480
00:25:32,519 --> 00:25:36,519
was looking at uh, the checklist for Stadium Club Baseball

481
00:25:36,559 --> 00:25:39,799
this year, and there are over one hundred players that

482
00:25:40,039 --> 00:25:43,319
signed for the product. But some of those players don't

483
00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:48,119
even have bas cards, which means that these are, you know,

484
00:25:48,599 --> 00:25:53,279
scraping the bottom of the barrel level of player. Even

485
00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:57,480
if you pull an a low number autograph of one

486
00:25:57,519 --> 00:26:00,599
of those kind of players, or if you get like

487
00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:07,119
a red, white and blue die cut nuclear refractor autograph

488
00:26:07,519 --> 00:26:11,599
out of Bowman draft of some eighth or ninth round

489
00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:16,640
draft pick that eventually doesn't make it, does it really

490
00:26:16,759 --> 00:26:19,799
matter of how low numbered it is, if it's just

491
00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:24,880
some scrub player, does anybody really is anybody ten fifteen

492
00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:29,160
to twenty years from now doing them want these cards?

493
00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:31,960
Speaker 3: Now? There are there are cards, you know, that are

494
00:26:32,039 --> 00:26:34,960
going to be valuable, that are going up in value,

495
00:26:35,319 --> 00:26:37,960
you know, but people have to be smarter about it,

496
00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:39,880
you know. I was watching the video. I think it

497
00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:43,319
was Junk Black's hero and he was talking about I

498
00:26:43,319 --> 00:26:44,720
think it was him, I'm not sure, but anyway, he

499
00:26:44,759 --> 00:26:48,119
got it. He got the eighty six Thundros Jose Canseco,

500
00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:51,880
which was his biggest dream card, and he wanted that card.

501
00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:53,599
He could never afford it, and he got it for

502
00:26:54,319 --> 00:26:57,000
Christmas and he treasured that card. He put it in

503
00:26:57,039 --> 00:26:59,799
a in a hard case and they told him to

504
00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:02,480
I think his father also got like a little mini

505
00:27:02,559 --> 00:27:05,160
safe to put it in and said, you know, hold

506
00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:06,680
on to that. That's going to be worth all this

507
00:27:06,799 --> 00:27:09,359
money and worth all this money. And he still has

508
00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:12,880
it today. It's worth you know, ten bucks, you know.

509
00:27:13,279 --> 00:27:15,839
And you know, so you have to look at that

510
00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:19,119
because that card back then was that was one hundred

511
00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:21,839
dollars card way back in the day, you know, and

512
00:27:21,960 --> 00:27:24,839
now it's a five to ten dollars card. But there

513
00:27:24,839 --> 00:27:28,079
were also other cards that people didn't even think about

514
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:32,359
back then that are now worth hundreds of dollars of cards,

515
00:27:32,519 --> 00:27:35,559
you know. So so you got to just find the

516
00:27:35,759 --> 00:27:38,519
right you know. I mean, if you look at you

517
00:27:38,519 --> 00:27:41,839
know what am I thinking of the the Fleer Kirby

518
00:27:41,839 --> 00:27:44,960
Pucket card. You know, back in the day the Update

519
00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:47,319
it wasn't worth that much money. You could have bought

520
00:27:47,319 --> 00:27:50,640
it cheaper than that Ensco card, And the same thing

521
00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:53,079
with the Clements card from that update set.

522
00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:54,920
Speaker 4: You could have bought it at the price of the

523
00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:55,920
Kencco card.

524
00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:58,359
Speaker 3: And now that Clements and that Pucket are a lot

525
00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:00,440
higher a lot. You know, they've gone a lot higher.

526
00:28:00,519 --> 00:28:03,400
So you know there are cards that are going to

527
00:28:03,519 --> 00:28:06,640
continue to go up, which cards they are until a

528
00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:10,480
few years from from now when they start all of

529
00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:11,319
a sudden going up.

530
00:28:11,559 --> 00:28:12,400
Speaker 4: Look at the Star.

531
00:28:12,319 --> 00:28:15,920
Speaker 3: Jordan card now is when it's going up, they say

532
00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:18,200
it's hyped up and that stuff, and it probably is

533
00:28:18,319 --> 00:28:22,359
over hyped and over you know whatever. But you know

534
00:28:22,599 --> 00:28:25,759
there are some cards that eventually and that Jordan card

535
00:28:25,799 --> 00:28:29,000
back then was actually worth more than the eighty seventh

536
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:32,240
Fleer back when Beckett started when when the first Beckett

537
00:28:32,279 --> 00:28:35,799
came out, but eventually, you know, it switched. Eighty seventh

538
00:28:35,799 --> 00:28:38,640
Fleer became more expensive and more popular, and now the

539
00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:41,319
Star card is coming back and becoming more expensive and

540
00:28:41,359 --> 00:28:43,960
more popular. So you know there are ebbs and flows

541
00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:45,920
in this hobby. If this hobby long enough, you're gonna

542
00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:48,319
notice you and see all that. And what you have

543
00:28:48,359 --> 00:28:51,839
to be careful is fomo. You know, that fear of

544
00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:55,440
missing out where I gotta get this Otwani card now

545
00:28:55,599 --> 00:28:58,440
this year that he just won the World Series. You

546
00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:01,599
know that's the fomo. And it happens, you know with

547
00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:04,319
all play. You know, look at justin Herbert people were

548
00:29:04,319 --> 00:29:06,839
buying just a Herbert cart for one hundred thousand dollars,

549
00:29:07,079 --> 00:29:09,799
you know. So the thing is, you know, you have

550
00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:12,480
to be patient. You gotta be smart in what you buy,

551
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:14,319
and you got to be smarter what you hold on

552
00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:17,359
to and and you know what yourself, it's just.

553
00:29:17,359 --> 00:29:21,279
Speaker 2: A I still have a one hundred count lot of

554
00:29:21,599 --> 00:29:25,000
Eric Davis rookies. He was gonna be the next Mickey

555
00:29:25,039 --> 00:29:25,759
mantle Man.

556
00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:30,079
Speaker 3: Yes he was. And the eighty eighty four Dundris Don

557
00:29:30,079 --> 00:29:32,839
Manley that's actually is now a bigger car than the

558
00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:33,720
Conseco card.

559
00:29:35,519 --> 00:29:39,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, White Sox Tom has something interesting in the in

560
00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:44,000
the chat. Uh there's been a second Brothers sighting.

561
00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:47,559
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's in I think A ninety three Ultra.

562
00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:49,599
Speaker 4: I don't know it was in.

563
00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:53,039
Speaker 2: Uh, it was in the A ninety four upper Deck

564
00:29:53,279 --> 00:29:54,240
box set.

565
00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:57,359
Speaker 3: He's kind of dunking and in the background you could

566
00:29:57,400 --> 00:30:00,559
see it. I saw that, and that's that's me. And yeah,

567
00:30:00,599 --> 00:30:03,480
exactly that card now is going to shoot up just

568
00:30:03,519 --> 00:30:10,160
because of the going to or whatever. But yeah, check

569
00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:13,200
it out and maybe you couldn't show it, but yeah,

570
00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:15,599
but you have cards like that that eventually are will

571
00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:16,119
come out.

572
00:30:16,559 --> 00:30:20,079
Speaker 1: Yeah, so you know, getting back to is collecting still

573
00:30:20,079 --> 00:30:24,720
a thing. I'm beginning to wonder if it's not cool

574
00:30:24,759 --> 00:30:26,799
to be a collector anymore, and it's just cool to

575
00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:30,519
be a card you know, flipping cards. I mean it's

576
00:30:30,559 --> 00:30:33,440
you know, I know us older guys, that's old heads.

577
00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:36,480
You know, we we collect and we try to collect

578
00:30:36,559 --> 00:30:39,319
sets and things, and and even set collecting I don't

579
00:30:39,359 --> 00:30:42,359
think is a thing anymore for the most part, even

580
00:30:42,359 --> 00:30:44,000
though the p s a set rest SEMs to be

581
00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:48,359
doing quite well, I think set collecting as a whole

582
00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:51,440
is just not a not a cool thing to do anymore.

583
00:30:51,799 --> 00:30:55,000
Speaker 2: And to some of the a lot of the products

584
00:30:55,039 --> 00:30:59,720
that are being made really aren't designed to be collected.

585
00:31:00,119 --> 00:31:02,960
They're designed to be broken. I mean, yes, you could

586
00:31:03,039 --> 00:31:06,759
still collect a base set, but on the other hand,

587
00:31:06,799 --> 00:31:10,160
if you're trying to collect all the inserts, good luck

588
00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:14,599
with that. I mean you look at like you look

589
00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:19,720
at the checklist for I don't know, Tops, Chrome Update Baseball,

590
00:31:19,839 --> 00:31:24,720
and there are just so many case hit level inserts

591
00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:29,960
and multi case level inserts that why even bother trying

592
00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:30,759
to collect this?

593
00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:35,880
Speaker 1: I mean can't even.

594
00:31:34,799 --> 00:31:39,000
Speaker 2: If you had Elon money, you cannot collect a set

595
00:31:39,359 --> 00:31:45,119
that's fifteen cards. And all serial number to ten or fifty.

596
00:31:45,599 --> 00:31:47,279
Speaker 3: And then next year you have to do the same,

597
00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:50,400
right because you're a collector. It gets to a point

598
00:31:50,440 --> 00:31:55,000
that it's you know, unfortunately the fanatics, they are just

599
00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:58,160
not the collector right now. They're not thinking about the collector.

600
00:31:58,559 --> 00:32:01,119
But you know, I mean looking at I look at

601
00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:03,880
it to look at things positively, because I'm a positive person,

602
00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:06,759
So I'm looking at it that you know, things go

603
00:32:06,839 --> 00:32:09,640
in ebbs and flows. It goes like that everywhere in

604
00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:11,880
politics and in cards.

605
00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:13,759
Speaker 4: And what's I think what's.

606
00:32:13,559 --> 00:32:16,240
Speaker 3: Gonna end up happening is that it's going to have

607
00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:20,000
to go back to focusing on the collector because all

608
00:32:20,039 --> 00:32:23,079
of these people right now that are that are flipping

609
00:32:23,119 --> 00:32:25,680
and flipping and flipping, we're going to lose some of those,

610
00:32:25,799 --> 00:32:28,599
but some of those are gonna hang on and they're

611
00:32:28,599 --> 00:32:30,799
going to look back and they're gonna learn from their

612
00:32:30,839 --> 00:32:34,200
experiences and say, you know what, now I know what

613
00:32:34,319 --> 00:32:36,799
the hobby is all about. It's not all about the flipping.

614
00:32:37,119 --> 00:32:40,079
It's about yeah, you sell some, but you hold on

615
00:32:40,119 --> 00:32:42,400
to some some that you like, or some that you

616
00:32:42,559 --> 00:32:46,079
feel that could have future value or whatever the reason is.

617
00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:49,079
You know, But I think that is when people are

618
00:32:49,119 --> 00:32:51,759
going to revert. Some of these guys are going to

619
00:32:51,839 --> 00:32:53,519
look back and say, you know, this flipping things not

620
00:32:53,599 --> 00:32:56,039
working for me. But I still do love the cards

621
00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:58,200
and I think I do want to collect some cards,

622
00:32:58,400 --> 00:32:59,880
and we're going to get back to that.

623
00:33:00,119 --> 00:33:01,279
Speaker 4: We'll get to get back to that.

624
00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:05,200
Speaker 3: As the prices continue to go down, the collectors start

625
00:33:05,279 --> 00:33:08,480
coming back into the market, because a lot of collectors

626
00:33:08,519 --> 00:33:10,240
and you talk to a lot of the collectors and say, no,

627
00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:13,720
you know, I'm priced out of the market right now,

628
00:33:14,119 --> 00:33:17,480
or they were, they say last year. But now they're

629
00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:19,599
not going to be priced out of the market. Yeah,

630
00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:22,960
they're priced out of the boxes, the retail, the hobby

631
00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:25,960
box hostile. Yeah, sure, that's because fanatics. But as far

632
00:33:26,039 --> 00:33:29,640
as these things start coming down, and they're coming down now,

633
00:33:30,039 --> 00:33:32,599
even the vintage. If you look at some of the

634
00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:35,759
videos that Greg has done for Midlife, you know you

635
00:33:35,799 --> 00:33:39,720
can buy sixties really maze cards for under fifty dollars,

636
00:33:39,839 --> 00:33:42,160
I mean, you know, lower grade, but still and I

637
00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:45,200
think a lot of collectors, and some of maybe the

638
00:33:46,119 --> 00:33:49,640
young guys will be drawn and I am seeing some

639
00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:52,319
of them being drawn more into the vintage or some

640
00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:55,279
more stable cards. That are going to hold their value

641
00:33:55,279 --> 00:33:58,640
a little bit more. So. I think what we're going through, honestly,

642
00:33:58,839 --> 00:34:01,759
this is a learning experience. Remember most of these that

643
00:34:01,799 --> 00:34:04,920
have come into the hobby, the Jeff Wilson's of the world,

644
00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:07,160
three or four years, they've been in the hobby, you know,

645
00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:10,199
they haven't been in the hobby twenty thirty, forty fifty

646
00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:11,599
years like we have.

647
00:34:12,119 --> 00:34:13,719
Speaker 4: So they're experiencing.

648
00:34:14,119 --> 00:34:17,119
Speaker 3: And even now Jeff Wilson is going back and you

649
00:34:17,159 --> 00:34:20,280
see him getting involved in vintage, even opening a vintage

650
00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:22,400
cello pack. You know, he didn't know what the hell

651
00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:25,760
that poster was which But you know, I don't know

652
00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:27,840
if you saw a video, but you know, the bottom

653
00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:30,280
line is, I think this is all a learning process

654
00:34:30,280 --> 00:34:33,760
for the hobby and all of these new guys they're learning.

655
00:34:34,039 --> 00:34:36,480
They're learning by trial and error like we did when

656
00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:39,039
we were young. You know, Hey, I bought those Kevin

657
00:34:39,079 --> 00:34:42,519
Moss cards and those Joe Charbonneau cards and all that

658
00:34:42,599 --> 00:34:45,679
kind of stuff, and you learn. I think we are

659
00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:50,960
the page to these guys saying, hey, this flipping thing

660
00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:53,599
ain't working for me as well as I was bought,

661
00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:57,480
you know, But they're refocusing, and I think this is

662
00:34:57,519 --> 00:35:00,159
a good time, and as prices come down, collectives going

663
00:35:00,199 --> 00:35:01,920
to flood the hobby, and I think it's going to

664
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:05,000
be overall, it's a good thing. You know. It's like

665
00:35:05,039 --> 00:35:07,880
they say, you have to go through bad times to.

666
00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:09,039
Speaker 4: Go through good things.

667
00:35:09,199 --> 00:35:09,400
Speaker 2: You know.

668
00:35:09,599 --> 00:35:10,280
Speaker 4: We went through the.

669
00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:13,320
Speaker 3: Nineteen twenty nine depression and after that it was roaring,

670
00:35:13,679 --> 00:35:16,840
the roaring, you know, thirties. So I think that's what's

671
00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:19,920
happening in the hobby overall. I think it's it's just

672
00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:24,039
to happen because that's the way people learn. But as

673
00:35:24,119 --> 00:35:27,639
time goes by, I think it's going to create more

674
00:35:28,039 --> 00:35:30,440
more people that stay. And the people that are going

675
00:35:30,519 --> 00:35:32,639
to stay are going to be the solid hobby as

676
00:35:32,679 --> 00:35:35,920
a solid collector, not the flippers that are going to

677
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:37,800
come and go, and some of those are already leaving.

678
00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:39,360
I think a lot of those have already left.

679
00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:43,400
Speaker 6: Yes, I think they have ten I'm a big believer

680
00:35:43,559 --> 00:35:48,719
in history repeating itself every thirty to forty years, and

681
00:35:49,079 --> 00:35:52,480
I think we're kind of where the hobby was in

682
00:35:52,519 --> 00:35:53,840
the early nineties.

683
00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:58,360
Speaker 2: Now. The good news is the mid nineties were a

684
00:35:58,400 --> 00:36:02,039
great time to be a baseball card collector because all

685
00:36:02,119 --> 00:36:05,760
of the rot in the hobby was cleared out at

686
00:36:05,760 --> 00:36:08,599
the end of the junk blacks era. It left the

687
00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:15,119
I hate using this term, but the real collectors behind

688
00:36:15,639 --> 00:36:18,679
and the card companies had to be innovative and they

689
00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:22,639
had to make their products a little different, and yes,

690
00:36:22,760 --> 00:36:25,719
some of it was gimmicky, but you look back on

691
00:36:25,960 --> 00:36:28,960
some of those products in the mid nineties and a

692
00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:33,519
lot of collectors look back with, you know, why don't

693
00:36:33,559 --> 00:36:37,440
we have cards like this anymore? You know, why don't

694
00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:41,639
we have defects or die cut cards or etched foil

695
00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:47,280
cards anymore? I think that day is coming a little

696
00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:49,000
bit sooner than later.

697
00:36:49,519 --> 00:36:53,199
Speaker 3: So it was the time that a lot of people

698
00:36:53,239 --> 00:36:56,239
got out of the hobby and they had to innovate.

699
00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:58,519
They had to come on because the true collectors were

700
00:36:58,519 --> 00:37:02,280
still there. And those collects who collected during the nineties,

701
00:37:02,679 --> 00:37:07,000
really we're fewer people were collecting. You know, those people

702
00:37:07,159 --> 00:37:10,320
really did extremely well, because you've got some of those

703
00:37:10,400 --> 00:37:15,039
nineties inserts that today are worth hundreds of thousands of dollars.

704
00:37:15,079 --> 00:37:18,639
Speaker 4: And why is that? Because there weren't that much.

705
00:37:18,519 --> 00:37:21,159
Speaker 3: Interest in that, And you know, it was it was

706
00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:24,280
the time, and now I think we're going to get

707
00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:26,880
back to those days. Like you said, Chris, we're heading

708
00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:31,119
back to those days where get these not non collectors

709
00:37:31,119 --> 00:37:33,880
that are in it for the money. They're eventually going

710
00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:36,880
to start getting out and we're going to get those

711
00:37:36,880 --> 00:37:39,840
collectors back. And I think we are getting new collectors

712
00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:42,760
and you see them. I think the industry that does

713
00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:45,559
the best is the Pokemon because Pokemon is getting these

714
00:37:45,639 --> 00:37:48,360
kids really early, and they are, you know, their in

715
00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:51,599
love with these characters all the way through and you see,

716
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:54,639
you know, you know they're they're they're holding on as

717
00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:58,360
collectors more than Yeah, you do trade the Pokemon and

718
00:37:58,400 --> 00:37:59,960
all that, but a lot of these kids are collect

719
00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:02,360
I think where you know, we need to get more

720
00:38:02,519 --> 00:38:07,280
to start collecting baseball cards or racing cards or whatever cards,

721
00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:09,760
whatever you collect. And I do think going back to

722
00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:12,199
the beginning of the conversation, this world series that we

723
00:38:12,320 --> 00:38:15,519
just saw is a big boost I think for collector.

724
00:38:15,559 --> 00:38:17,679
You know, I think this is going to really get

725
00:38:17,960 --> 00:38:20,440
people more into the hobby because of the excitement that

726
00:38:20,480 --> 00:38:23,800
happened and some of these players that sometimes you just

727
00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:26,320
didn't see on a daily basis, like a Freddie Freeman.

728
00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:29,719
Speaker 1: So so, Jeff says that years ninety five through ninety

729
00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:32,440
nine are awesome cards to collect. He says he loves

730
00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:35,519
to hunt now. I agree with that because some of

731
00:38:35,559 --> 00:38:39,239
the best racing cards, because I'm a NASCAR collector, like

732
00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:42,280
Zenith and things, those were made during that era, and

733
00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:46,840
I really didn't appreciate them then. But now collectors have come,

734
00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:48,960
you know, like there's some dale earned hard cards that

735
00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:53,119
are really hard to find. They've come to appreciate those

736
00:38:53,159 --> 00:38:55,920
now and they're harder to find for sure, And I

737
00:38:55,960 --> 00:38:56,519
agree with that.

738
00:38:56,880 --> 00:38:57,559
Speaker 3: Those are the first one.

739
00:38:57,760 --> 00:39:01,400
Speaker 2: And now that I'm older and have some more disposable income,

740
00:39:02,199 --> 00:39:05,719
I'm actually able to go back and collect a lot

741
00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:08,559
of the cards that I wanted to collect when I was,

742
00:39:09,199 --> 00:39:12,800
you know, in my teens and twenties, but didn't have

743
00:39:12,880 --> 00:39:16,119
the money to make to afford them. I mean, to

744
00:39:16,159 --> 00:39:18,199
be fair, I was in the Air Force, and I

745
00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:19,519
didn't make a whole lot of them.

746
00:39:19,559 --> 00:39:23,559
Speaker 1: And Brendan says, without the benefit of experienced new collectors

747
00:39:23,559 --> 00:39:25,840
will have to go through the right of passage of

748
00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:29,519
getting burned like I did and I did too. If

749
00:39:29,559 --> 00:39:31,719
they say it won't be because of financial gain, that's

750
00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:34,559
a that's a true statement, and I agree with that

751
00:39:34,599 --> 00:39:36,639
one as well, because I can't tell you how many

752
00:39:36,639 --> 00:39:38,679
Greg Jefferies I was buying up back in the day.

753
00:39:40,239 --> 00:39:41,920
You see, you can see where I am now.

754
00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:47,000
Speaker 2: You know, Logan, I sent you a screenshot of that

755
00:39:47,079 --> 00:39:49,199
other Menendez card that.

756
00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:53,760
Speaker 1: Was okay, how did you how did you send it?

757
00:39:54,599 --> 00:39:55,360
Speaker 2: Share screen?

758
00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:59,679
Speaker 1: Okay? So I can find it here if it's under

759
00:40:00,079 --> 00:40:02,239
is it? I don't know where it's at. O's see it?

760
00:40:02,360 --> 00:40:04,559
Hold on, I got it here.

761
00:40:04,679 --> 00:40:06,199
Speaker 4: Here it is.

762
00:40:06,719 --> 00:40:11,599
Speaker 2: Yeah. If you can see right next to Michael's knees,

763
00:40:11,760 --> 00:40:16,599
those two uh, the white young gentleman right there, that's them.

764
00:40:17,119 --> 00:40:17,760
Speaker 1: I see them.

765
00:40:18,119 --> 00:40:21,920
Speaker 2: They're in hard number eighty nine in the nineteen ninety

766
00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:25,599
four upper Deck Rare Air set. Like I said, this

767
00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:30,239
was a boxed set. It's a ninety cards, all of MJ.

768
00:40:32,239 --> 00:40:36,800
I believe that there was also a Hobby exclusive gold

769
00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:40,960
version of this, but in order to get that you

770
00:40:41,079 --> 00:40:44,280
have to open up the set and see if you've

771
00:40:44,320 --> 00:40:46,800
got a gold card. I think did the same thing

772
00:40:46,840 --> 00:40:53,079
in baseball, where one factory set in the case had

773
00:40:53,199 --> 00:40:56,880
gold holograms. So I think that was the year of

774
00:40:56,920 --> 00:41:00,400
the Jeter rookie. So something they'll chase after.

775
00:41:00,880 --> 00:41:03,559
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, it's funny that you say that because uh,

776
00:41:03,760 --> 00:41:06,400
I was wanting to talk a little bit and we'll

777
00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:08,920
do it here in a minute about some scary cards

778
00:41:09,159 --> 00:41:12,280
since it is, you know, Halloween time. Some cards that

779
00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:14,960
I have in my collection that are to me kind

780
00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:18,280
of scary. And actually I have the other card, the

781
00:41:18,280 --> 00:41:20,599
Hoops card with the Menindaz Brothers is one of my

782
00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:26,119
scary cards. That's pretty cool. Christ Now I've got to

783
00:41:26,159 --> 00:41:28,679
find that card. And so I guess good luck with that.

784
00:41:30,079 --> 00:41:31,119
Now's not the time to.

785
00:41:31,039 --> 00:41:33,400
Speaker 3: Be getting those are cards you good have gotten from

786
00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:34,159
the buck now.

787
00:41:34,039 --> 00:41:37,039
Speaker 1: It's like, I think I forget it me in no

788
00:41:37,119 --> 00:41:38,079
way ridiculous.

789
00:41:38,320 --> 00:41:40,199
Speaker 3: It's like the Menendez card. I mean it was like

790
00:41:40,239 --> 00:41:43,760
a that's a five cent card and then they went

791
00:41:43,840 --> 00:41:45,280
up to like fifteen dollars.

792
00:41:46,239 --> 00:41:48,639
Speaker 1: Yeah. So yeah, I wonder if they get released from prison. Yeah,

793
00:41:48,719 --> 00:41:50,719
if that's going to lower the value of their cards,

794
00:41:50,760 --> 00:41:52,960
you know, I guess some of the mystique is them

795
00:41:53,039 --> 00:41:54,119
being in prison.

796
00:41:55,719 --> 00:41:56,480
Speaker 3: No, I don't think so.

797
00:41:56,519 --> 00:41:59,000
Speaker 2: I think you will be able to get them autographed,

798
00:41:59,119 --> 00:42:00,639
now that's true.

799
00:42:00,920 --> 00:42:04,480
Speaker 4: Ye would want to, man, I don't know, want not

800
00:42:04,599 --> 00:42:04,840
for me?

801
00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:07,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, No, that's that's that's a little over the top.

802
00:42:07,360 --> 00:42:10,800
I think. Okay, let's so let's see here. Let's see

803
00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:13,159
one of the topics that that we can talk about

804
00:42:13,199 --> 00:42:16,599
real quick, real quick. I want to touch on this

805
00:42:16,800 --> 00:42:21,360
real quick. The the one of one triple auto Olympic

806
00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:25,360
card of Curry, James and Durant. Where in the world

807
00:42:25,440 --> 00:42:28,400
is that card still out there? Yeah, I mean you

808
00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:31,119
would have thought by now somebody would have said, oh

809
00:42:31,199 --> 00:42:33,440
my god, I got the I got the redemption and

810
00:42:33,519 --> 00:42:34,960
I'm going to be a gazillionaire.

811
00:42:35,519 --> 00:42:38,079
Speaker 3: Well, they said that it has been sent out. They've

812
00:42:38,119 --> 00:42:42,719
all been sent out, So somebody has it. Yeah, but

813
00:42:42,840 --> 00:42:45,400
that's what they're saying. Somebody out there has it now,

814
00:42:45,800 --> 00:42:48,039
you know, who knows. There are still a lot of

815
00:42:48,199 --> 00:42:51,199
unopened packs for sale on eBay there for a couple

816
00:42:51,199 --> 00:42:52,199
of thousand dollars.

817
00:42:52,559 --> 00:42:55,519
Speaker 4: They say, maybe somebody has has it.

818
00:42:55,440 --> 00:42:58,199
Speaker 3: And it's selling other packs there, you know, because as

819
00:42:58,239 --> 00:43:01,039
soon as it's found, all all those packs and all

820
00:43:01,079 --> 00:43:03,519
that that's on eBay, the price is just go whoop

821
00:43:03,840 --> 00:43:07,159
down to nothing. So who knows. But I think, uh,

822
00:43:07,320 --> 00:43:09,280
it's got to turn up or somebody already has it.

823
00:43:09,400 --> 00:43:12,559
I think somebody's I think somebody has it.

824
00:43:11,480 --> 00:43:17,280
Speaker 2: Somebody uh yeah, down low because you know, well, you

825
00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:19,719
know it hasn't been redeemed yet.

826
00:43:20,880 --> 00:43:21,559
Speaker 4: Well, it hasn't been.

827
00:43:21,519 --> 00:43:24,199
Speaker 2: Physical card is still in tops his possession.

828
00:43:24,519 --> 00:43:27,079
Speaker 3: Yeah, but the redemptionbody has.

829
00:43:26,920 --> 00:43:29,639
Speaker 2: The redemption, but they haven't.

830
00:43:29,800 --> 00:43:31,400
Speaker 4: It's out there somewhere with that redemption.

831
00:43:31,599 --> 00:43:33,559
Speaker 1: So do you think it's kind of like you know,

832
00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:36,840
the smart people that win the lottery before they announced

833
00:43:36,840 --> 00:43:39,599
that they've won, they they've gotten a lawyer involved, you know,

834
00:43:40,840 --> 00:43:45,440
financial guy, get all that stuff, I get that foundation laid,

835
00:43:45,480 --> 00:43:48,280
and then go, hey, I won. Maybe that's what's going on.

836
00:43:48,320 --> 00:43:49,360
Speaker 4: I'll tell you what I would do.

837
00:43:50,360 --> 00:43:54,840
Speaker 3: I would uh maybe contact some uh private buyers that

838
00:43:54,920 --> 00:43:58,440
have money or something golden or something not not like

839
00:43:58,480 --> 00:44:01,639
golden and try to sell it privately, just the redemption card.

840
00:44:01,719 --> 00:44:04,639
And that way you don't get involved. Your name is

841
00:44:04,679 --> 00:44:06,559
not out there, you know, if you want to stay

842
00:44:06,559 --> 00:44:08,840
private about it, you just get your money and go

843
00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:12,519
and nothing, you know, you know, sell it privately offline.

844
00:44:12,519 --> 00:44:14,320
There's a lot I don't I don't know if they

845
00:44:14,360 --> 00:44:17,039
still have the actual bounties or not.

846
00:44:17,320 --> 00:44:18,719
Speaker 4: There were bounties on that card.

847
00:44:19,119 --> 00:44:21,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know. And there were so many bounties

848
00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:24,239
and they kept changing and everybody was trying to outdo

849
00:44:24,360 --> 00:44:27,679
the other one, and it was just crazy. I lost

850
00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:29,840
track of all that that was going on. So Man

851
00:44:29,880 --> 00:44:32,960
City says that on eBay that Jordan card is going

852
00:44:32,960 --> 00:44:36,199
from anywhere from one hundred and fifteen to follow Ready Jesus,

853
00:44:36,480 --> 00:44:37,639
that is absolutely Yeah.

854
00:44:37,960 --> 00:44:39,960
Speaker 3: Two days ago it was like fifty sixty bucks and

855
00:44:39,960 --> 00:44:42,880
now it was fifty to five hundred. Wow. Yeah, well

856
00:44:43,280 --> 00:44:45,199
there's got to be there's got to be very few

857
00:44:45,239 --> 00:44:46,519
of them graded.

858
00:44:46,199 --> 00:44:48,360
Speaker 4: Especially you know in PSA, tens of those.

859
00:44:48,400 --> 00:44:50,159
Speaker 3: I mean, who the hell would have grated that before?

860
00:44:50,599 --> 00:44:54,119
Speaker 1: No, nobody would have, you know, because it was a

861
00:44:54,159 --> 00:44:57,159
box set, right, who would even You're not going to.

862
00:44:57,159 --> 00:45:01,039
Speaker 2: See a whole lot of these broken up for single right, so.

863
00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:05,079
Speaker 1: They will now, you know, as Fred Flinstone would say,

864
00:45:05,360 --> 00:45:06,320
oh boy.

865
00:45:09,880 --> 00:45:12,360
Speaker 4: For two dead for two killers.

866
00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:18,000
Speaker 1: You know, geez they sometimes it's just it's just amazing

867
00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:20,400
to me some of the things that that go on.

868
00:45:20,920 --> 00:45:23,280
Speaker 3: I could buy a low grade Jackie Robinson card for

869
00:45:23,320 --> 00:45:24,719
five hundred dollars versus something.

870
00:45:24,760 --> 00:45:29,480
Speaker 1: Then yeah, let's think about that Jackie Robinson Menindez Brothers,

871
00:45:29,519 --> 00:45:31,519
which one am I going to pick? Jackie?

872
00:45:32,559 --> 00:45:34,920
Speaker 2: Or you can buy a box of Bowman Draft when

873
00:45:34,920 --> 00:45:37,960
it comes out for Yeah, pretty much.

874
00:45:38,360 --> 00:45:41,920
Speaker 1: That's That's the other thing about collecting now is the

875
00:45:41,960 --> 00:45:44,559
box prices. But that that's that's probably a topic for

876
00:45:44,599 --> 00:45:48,440
another day. Yeah, it's it's just absolutely insane, some of

877
00:45:48,480 --> 00:45:52,599
these box prices. So so I do want to show

878
00:45:53,159 --> 00:45:56,840
some some scary cards. Uh, let me let me find

879
00:45:56,840 --> 00:46:00,280
my cards here. Uh, you know, Halloween, you know always

880
00:46:00,320 --> 00:46:02,960
conjures up. You know what kind of what kind of

881
00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:06,519
scary cards you have out there? What do you consider scary?

882
00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:10,519
Speaker 3: I got one one card I want. One of the

883
00:46:10,559 --> 00:46:13,559
worst sets ever is the ninety one Fleeer, But they

884
00:46:13,599 --> 00:46:15,880
have one of the best insert sets, which is the

885
00:46:15,920 --> 00:46:20,199
Provision Cards. And I love this because it's the Green Monster.

886
00:46:20,480 --> 00:46:24,400
Oh gosh, with the green Monster in the background, Mike

887
00:46:24,440 --> 00:46:28,280
Greenwell Green and there's the wall you can see the

888
00:46:28,320 --> 00:46:29,000
green Monster.

889
00:46:30,800 --> 00:46:31,960
Speaker 1: It was so scary.

890
00:46:32,440 --> 00:46:33,719
Speaker 4: I just wanted to share that.

891
00:46:34,119 --> 00:46:36,119
Speaker 1: I thought about my Greenwell in Forever.

892
00:46:36,639 --> 00:46:39,039
Speaker 4: Yeah, it was great, Chris.

893
00:46:39,239 --> 00:46:41,039
Speaker 2: So I have a card that I wanted to share

894
00:46:41,639 --> 00:46:42,360
that I found.

895
00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:43,000
Speaker 1: Okay, here we go.

896
00:46:44,199 --> 00:46:50,119
Speaker 2: So in the nineties, Pinnacle Brands made a set of

897
00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:54,719
inserts for their hockey card sets called masks, and it's

898
00:46:54,800 --> 00:46:59,039
just the goalie masks, but they're all done in defects.

899
00:46:59,119 --> 00:47:02,760
And I think they also did this for the NASCAR

900
00:47:02,880 --> 00:47:07,840
helmets as well, where they took each driver's helmet and

901
00:47:07,880 --> 00:47:11,400
made it defects. Well. Well, this is the mask of

902
00:47:11,440 --> 00:47:16,679
a guy named Blaine Locker who was the goaltender for

903
00:47:16,880 --> 00:47:21,159
the Boston Bruins at the time. This is from ninety

904
00:47:21,199 --> 00:47:23,840
five ninety six Pinnacle Hockey and you can just see

905
00:47:23,880 --> 00:47:28,559
the demon that he has on on his grill. It's

906
00:47:28,880 --> 00:47:32,599
pretty scary looking that. That is kind of scary looking.

907
00:47:32,639 --> 00:47:35,239
Speaker 1: Man. That's that's a wild card right there. For sure.

908
00:47:36,360 --> 00:47:39,559
Speaker 2: That's just one card. Because a lot of the goalie masks,

909
00:47:39,760 --> 00:47:43,079
well even now they're they're even now they're kind of scary.

910
00:47:43,199 --> 00:47:45,039
Some of them are pretty scary looking.

911
00:47:45,239 --> 00:47:47,920
Speaker 1: So yeah, so Gordon says, Mike Greenwell was his Greg

912
00:47:48,000 --> 00:47:50,880
Jefferies back in the day. There you go, Orlando, Yeah

913
00:47:51,000 --> 00:47:55,840
he was. Yeah, I liked Mike Greenwell. Uh so you

914
00:47:55,840 --> 00:47:57,599
can show me all the scary cards you want to

915
00:47:57,719 --> 00:48:02,599
have iron him. Yeah, that's a that's a nice scary card.

916
00:48:03,719 --> 00:48:04,559
Speaker 2: Let's see.

917
00:48:05,400 --> 00:48:07,760
Speaker 1: So I'll show you probably one of the scariest cards

918
00:48:07,800 --> 00:48:10,599
for me here real quick. It's this card right here.

919
00:48:10,760 --> 00:48:12,519
It's seventy eight tops, Greg.

920
00:48:14,960 --> 00:48:17,360
Speaker 3: I got, I got something else I want? Yeah, that's

921
00:48:17,559 --> 00:48:18,800
that's pretty bad.

922
00:48:20,360 --> 00:48:24,199
Speaker 1: I mean just the airbrush and that card haunted me

923
00:48:24,559 --> 00:48:27,360
back in the seventies, like, oh I could, I just couldn't.

924
00:48:27,559 --> 00:48:29,000
It just scared me to look at it.

925
00:48:29,199 --> 00:48:31,039
Speaker 3: Yeah, that that's that's pretty bad.

926
00:48:31,079 --> 00:48:34,480
Speaker 4: How about this one? How about the Oscar gamble?

927
00:48:34,639 --> 00:48:40,320
Speaker 1: Oh heck yeah, man right there back.

928
00:48:40,079 --> 00:48:42,199
Speaker 4: In seventy six, nobody had hair like that.

929
00:48:42,760 --> 00:48:45,719
Speaker 1: No, he had a big afro. Man, that thing is unbelievable.

930
00:48:45,719 --> 00:48:47,360
Speaker 4: They didn't even fit in his cap.

931
00:48:50,679 --> 00:48:56,320
Speaker 1: Here here's one for you, don got I think? Yeah,

932
00:48:56,360 --> 00:48:58,920
it uh makes you wonder if with a good gust

933
00:48:58,920 --> 00:49:01,320
to win, he might fly away? You know. It's that

934
00:49:01,480 --> 00:49:02,519
was that was kind.

935
00:49:02,400 --> 00:49:05,000
Speaker 4: Of it's kind of scary, but Dumbo years.

936
00:49:05,239 --> 00:49:09,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, and of course, UH got a few others here.

937
00:49:09,280 --> 00:49:10,800
Here's here's the one I was talking about with the

938
00:49:10,840 --> 00:49:14,440
Meninda's brothers. Yeah, Mark Jackson card. You see you see

939
00:49:14,480 --> 00:49:17,519
the Menendez brothers over there off to the left. And

940
00:49:17,880 --> 00:49:21,119
of course this is alike. This may not necessarily be scary,

941
00:49:21,159 --> 00:49:24,280
but it's probably been voted like the worst baseball card

942
00:49:24,280 --> 00:49:26,440
of all time, This Bob Handling card.

943
00:49:26,840 --> 00:49:27,639
Speaker 3: That's a classic.

944
00:49:28,079 --> 00:49:29,679
Speaker 1: That that that is a classic.

945
00:49:30,199 --> 00:49:32,119
Speaker 3: He doesn't even look like a baseball player, looks like

946
00:49:32,159 --> 00:49:32,599
a nerd.

947
00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:36,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that that's just looks like a convict, like

948
00:49:36,960 --> 00:49:41,360
a convict with his shot shot. Yeah, he's uh, he's

949
00:49:41,719 --> 00:49:45,239
six to uh two hundred and thirty pounds.

950
00:49:46,239 --> 00:49:49,480
Speaker 2: The glasses twenty five to life for now.

951
00:49:49,800 --> 00:49:52,800
Speaker 1: But then you've also got to watch out for Wally

952
00:49:52,880 --> 00:49:57,119
Moon and the uh, the the fuzzy worm going across

953
00:49:56,920 --> 00:50:04,239
his forehead there. That one, that one is kind of

954
00:50:04,320 --> 00:50:07,440
kind of scary. And I think I've got one more

955
00:50:07,480 --> 00:50:09,360
here for you, this one right here.

956
00:50:09,559 --> 00:50:11,719
Speaker 4: Oh that's right there.

957
00:50:12,039 --> 00:50:13,360
Speaker 1: That haircut is scary to me.

958
00:50:13,480 --> 00:50:16,519
Speaker 2: Man time hockey right there.

959
00:50:16,599 --> 00:50:20,559
Speaker 1: Yeah, that is man with the bangs and everything else.

960
00:50:20,679 --> 00:50:25,119
That's uh, that's Screen seventies for sure, no doubt. So yeah,

961
00:50:24,719 --> 00:50:27,519
I always, uh, I have a I have a collection.

962
00:50:27,639 --> 00:50:29,679
