Coffee Break:2024 Zenith Football Value Pack

 
So, I am officially back from a swamped/busy vacation break and now need to catch up on mail days, mailing stuff out, your comments on this blog (I reply to everyone), new posts, along with some upcoming appointments, errands and who knows what else in-between. 

Oh, and a dead washing machine today. Seems to be my luck. I had to sell both kidneys, my nose and one of my webbed toes but a new one will be delivered on Monday.

Sigh.

But here I am making a new post and because it's late, coffeeless. It's okay though, I am happy to finally get back on here.

*yawns, but continues on*

In my last post, I mentioned that my mother had grabbed me a value pack of 2024 Zenith football. Zenith as many long-time readers know, was one of my favorite 90's product lines (I know I probably say this line too much, but I simply love the 90's)

I am sure like most products that get revisited and brought back from the dead, it won't be the same kind of product it once was but hoping for some fun anyways.

Here are some of the "best" cards I found in my pack.

We kick it off with the 90's, well some players from the 90's I liked watching.



Up next....
A NEW ELI! (need to update my PC numbers on TCDB in my haha spare time)

A top pick who should be even better in year 2 with more help for Caleb Williams.

And another guy who should be better as well.

I don't know much about Washington, but with the Dolphins trading everyone away, this guy may be important next year.

A solid oline piece for the Chargers, but finding o-lineman and.....

d-lineman in packs is like finding rookie pitchers in baseball. They are simply dreadful to find (unless they are NY Giants of course)

And I found an insert, cool looking with design and being chromed, but wished it was the Nabers version!

The break wasn't overly exciting. A lot of bland base and I felt it was missing the charm of the 90's Zenith as expected. The 90's were so much better.

*yawns again, probably should finish up post and go to bed and not have a repeat of blacking out with the phone in hand from being too tired*

I will be back soon with tons of things to share including highlights from my week of vacation. I also have a couple blogger mail days, a huge reader Grady M mail day, a year in waiting mail day and all kinds of other fun stuff. 

So, have your coffee ready. Maybe dessert to. More to come.

Coffee Break:2024 Donruss Football Blaster Box

 
It's the first Sunday without football so thought I would bring some football to you!

With my recent lack of ripping and a big urge to want to, I wasted some of my Christmas eBay gift cards and did a trade with my buddy Shane just so I could have something to open. I will post all of the breaks on here.

I know I shouldn't have wasted resources for it, so save the lectures, but I wanted to.

I needed it.

Just like this cup of coffee.

*takes a sip*

My rip today was a blaster box of 2024 Donruss football.

There wasn't too much excitement in the break, but I did pull a few cool cards.
After the season this guy had, everyone needs a rookie of him.

Red Press Proof parallel.

Throwback Design Insert. Because what longstanding product doesn't include those now-a-days. Especially Topps brands.

Red Hot Rookies. Not a bad one to find here. He looked pretty good last season.

Champ Is Here. I wished they had won it this year. Ugh Eagles.

 
This is a great looking insert. Action All Pros. I will have to see if there are any Giants on the checklist for this one. I like it.

*Here's to another Coffee Break, hope everyone has a great day and remember, coffee is best served warm. Coffee Card blogger out*
