Issues with starting a 2nd family.

I want to have a baby with my PSA 5 Miscut 1972 Topps Franco Harris card.

I only get cards graded that I pull from packs, never buy anyone else's. I only get cards graded that were mine from the get go. I saved some from the early seventies. They're all somewhat trashed. Getting 5's and 6's. I don't care. I knew that when I sent them in. Gunna send a bunch more in, and get 5's and 6's, and it looks like many OC's and MC's too. Don't care. These cards are too cool. Must protect them for infinity.

Yeah, I'm an idiot wasting money. But my PSA graded cards are all quite cool to me. Instant relaxation when looking at them

If anyone knows how to actually have a baby with a sports card, please advise on process. My PSA 5 Miscut 1972 Topps Franco Harris is perfect.

    I don't think grading long-owned cards is a waste of money.
    The slabs protect the items forever, and they are interesting
    to look at.

    MANY folks get stuff graded just because they like it.

    well it can't be slabbed, the slab offers too much protection..

    you need to hit it raw, dog, raw.

    I suspect you are just toying with Franco's emotions to try to get with his cardboardy goodness.

    If you really LOVED that card, you would know his rookie offering was 1973.

    You, sir, are a playa'.

  • oh man,, you're right. '73. I do love my card. I was.. was.. it was like remembering the wife's birthday. can't do it.

    excuse.. call it a case of PWI. (posting while intoxicated)
  • NICE !!!! nice reply pandrews... was hoping there were some moshy hip new school folks here.

    Am new here of course.. (as you can tell) Tried to initially be polite with the wackiness. Will take the mockery from any 'playa pro'. who cares.

    I will of course have to now crack the card and do as you say. This could be interesting tonight.

    I'll think I'll name the baby... CARDALLICA

    (seen someone out here with the Judas Priest British Steel emblem.. sweeeeeeet !)

    do I get banned for posting like this ? heh heh
  • I don't think that you're an idiot "wasting" money. I've had cards slabbed for the same reasons you are. I've only had a few cards from when I was 12-13yrs old and I think that they deserve to be encased regardless of their condition. To an extent.
    Here are some I had graded just for the reason that I've had them for 27 yrs or so.

    Here are some that will be slabbed in the near future:

    Knew the grade was going to be low but I didn't care. It's Roger

    Yes some of them are obvious gradeable cards but some are not. But like I said I don't really care what the grade would be.

    But you can still keep trying

    Stone, that type of behavior is rather common in Northern Ohio

    well, there is a hole in the picnic table for the umbrella; i just hope it was sanded properly; those splinters would be a biznitch to get out!

    Suddenly ants showing up at a picnic does not seem nearly as disruptive as it once did...
