    I'm stuck at work. Was thinking about quitting but probably wouldn't be the best idea.

    I guess I could just puke all over my desk and then go home sick.

    I'll post pics if do

    I wouldn't last 2 seconds in a room with a box of TT sitting on the desk. I hope you pull a nice Teddy Ballgame cut.

    Ugh, dude sorry on that one. Also why not just have a decoder ring or a list of the damn meanings in these TT boxes.

    Frank does have a nice auto though. Hope you make 1/2 your box price back.

    Ha - better you than me. I saw on blowout another Stras 1/1 was pulled. That's the 3rd I have seen there.

    not great but not too bad. Nice 1/1 - He can't possibly as bad next year as he was this year though.

    I've been peeling off all my Yankee GU cards and making a custom doormat with the remnants. I'll be happy to take those 3 of your hands

    I see no problem with multiple 1/1's in a set, and find it strange so many are think anything of it, they are all clearly different.

    Ripping something sounds fun...but I can't bring myself to buy a box. I'll live vicariously through you all.
