I collected baseball cards from the late '80s through 2002. Then I went to college and when I came out, I was lost. There were too many brands, sets, choices, relics, autos, parallels, variations. It was a turn off. However, I slowly made my way back. So here is my attempt to venture back into the hobby. I'll buy a few packs of cards here and there, comment on some cards I have, send out some TTMs, and follow the progress of my Topps Yankees Project.

Father's Day card haul
For my first Father’s Day, I received a few gift cards. The little
lady wanted to buy me baseball cards, but she didn’t know how to pick them out, so she
gave me strict instructions to buy them with the gift cards. I used part of one
to buy a hanger box and two jumbo packs of 2012 Topps Series Two. I hadn’t
gotten any Series Two yet, so I wanted to see what they were all about.
Overall, I didn’t pull anything out of the norm, but I got a
nice assortment of cards represented in Series Two. I like the inserts a lot
more than Series One. I did pull an Andruw Jones gold foil card that was
damaged. At first I was thinking that I was going to send it to Topps to
replace, but now that I think about it, I don’t really care about the damage. Not
worth the hassle.
I did get three Golden Giveaway codes and unlocked three
lame coins that don’t even have chocolate in the middle.
