    You know you have a bad addiction to unopened when your top June purchase was a mint empty 81/82 cello box……

    Hi,
    Actually this is not a bad addiction.
    I myself am looking for an empty 1982 Topps Football Wax box….
    I think it’s the blue or something ¯_(ツ)_/¯

    @rexvos you are making quick work of the Reggie set. Great cards, the 1971 is a sentimental favorite for me.

    Thanks. I was going to try and grab the 1981 PSA 9 that was ending Sunday night, but it got bid up pretty high for a card that did not look particularly outstanding for a 9. So I bought something else instead that I hope gets in by the end of the week.

    I used to love these as a kid. I put together a few sets of the Action Stars as a wee-lad.

    I am often amazed by the kindness and generosity of our forum members. This 536 commemorative ring (left) was sent to me by @Gilbey simply because he knows I love Mickey.

    Thank you kindly, Dave!

    Nifty! That is one of the rings they have given out at the Tulsa Drillers games (Dodgers' AA affiliate) here in Tulsa. They are doing another one this week, I think. So if you are in town you should grab one! :)

    haha! right. that's georgia for ya.

    either way, i think both qbs have tremendous ability to go far in the car insurance business.

    you have "jake fromm state farm" & "justin case from smartauto". the commercials literally wrote themselves.

    Hopefully both teams get some good o lineman to keep them from getting murdered in the backfield and actually give them time to develop. Potential is there for both of them. I can attest from several occasions that Fields is a great person and proud he represents OSU.

    LOL! Good point about the insurance. You’d have to think they might not be too thrilled about all of the Rogers publicity going on with G.B.

    100%. dont want another burrow situation and protection in general for the nfl considering what's unfolded about head injuries. one thing that's kinda struck me odd, especially considering most 1st round qbs go bust and most of the greats emerged from deeper in the draft is why they dont use more picks for offensive linemen? i know it's not the sexy pick and they dont sell jerseys, beer and hotdogs but a solid offensive line is probably the most key asset to have. even the best qb or rb is basically ineffective if all they have is cotton balls on the line. good line, good protection, good hole making equals good offense which equals wins which equals superbowls. lineman also dont have the risk issues. a big boy that did well at the college level usually does quite well in the nfl. just never gets the glory. that certainly isnt the case w/ even the best of college qbs. that list never ends.

    Sadly you nailed it in regards to o lineman and the draft. Funny story about o line to back up your point, Zeke and the rest of the 2014 National Championship team nicknamed the online men “the slobs” and it actually has stuck and they take pride in the name and wear it like a badge of honor.
    Ugh. Burrow. Trying not to think what might have been had he not broken the pinkie finger on his throwing hand in the spring game that gave Haskins the starting role. Both were great college QBs though. But Urban as great as a coach as he was and as much as I enjoyed his time at OSU, had a history of nepotism while here. Best Man Billy Davis, Tim Beck, Ed Wariner, and of course JT Barret (love JT but he was absolutely not the best qb out of him, Burrow, and Haskins). Mike Brown and the Bengals have a long history of some of the worst draft picks over needs. That didn’t shock me one bit w Burrow getting injured. Burrow should of told Brown the night they drafted them “either pick 3-4 o lineman w your next several picks or I won’t be signing”. Everyone was saying he’s going to get killed with their terrible line the minute he was drafted.

    You’re spot on. It amazing how much hype QB’s get from the combine and get way over drafted and go bust or clipboard career player. Personally I do think a lot of it comes down to the organization that drafts them, the system they run, o line, etc. So many variables in play. Might as well be flipping a coin.
