Feeling The Heat

I am not sure what is hotter, the 90-degree temperatures outside, the cup of coffee that sits in front of me or my recent mail days from fellow bloggers.

Let's just say out of those three things, only one I can tolerate.

*takes a burning sip...ouch*

I hate losing cards, but apparently I did that again losing all four of my base 2015 Topps Allen&Ginter Impractical Jokers cards. I was trying to find a way to get them back and thought of people who may have opened a decent amount of Allen&Ginter. One blogger came to mind immediately, Nachos Grande.

He didn't have all four, but did have two of them which getting any back was great.

Especially when it's Joe who is my favorite Joker.

The Murr isn't a base, but is a cool Mini. I may still seek the base but now have an extra cool collectible. This time I will place them in a binder and not in a messy card room.

Thanks again Chris! I will hit you back when I have time to dive into the boxes I need to.

Oh, and if any of you have the other two, I need or three if it's a Murr base, hit me up at sportcardcollectors@hotmail.com. Thanks in advance!

Up next, I got a surprise mail day in the mail from Gavin at Baseball Card Breakdown who sent some really cool items. Cooler than this cup of coffee still is for sure.

It was great to hear from Gavin again since it had been so long.

But he still nailed everything I collect.

  

I don't collect a lot of Yankees anymore, but Jeter I do. He will always be my favorite Yankee. These customs are super nice and high-quality work.

I didn't know these had refractors, and definitely wouldn't have guessed they are numbered, this one is /100.

Dexy! He is the best player on the Giants, I think. He will be once again a dominant force this upcoming season.

I don't think the Giants gave Hill enough time as he has played well for Cincy, but I will always accept his cards in blue.

The last card he sent which apparently got deleted on here or melted off from here because of the sun, was a numbered Ottis Anderson Prime Signatures card.

Thanks for the surprise mail day Gavin! I actually mailed yours out today, hope you enjoy, I have been holding stuff for you for a while.

*takes a sip, burns tongue again before finishing up today's post*

I sure hope this cup of coffee cools down, but most importantly the weather. I don't like the heat. However, I do like the heat/fire that the bloggers send out, that's the only kind I will welcome.

Don't forget you can start to nominate cards for the 2025 Coffee Card Hall Of Fame!! Cards don't have to be autographs, patch cards, super star cards. It can be whatever you think is Hall Worthy! Find details and current nominations HERE.

Is This The Post Of The Year?

Is this the post of the year?

Probably not. But who knows.

That will be left in the hands of you, the voters, when you vote in the Nachos Grande blog End Of The Year awards.

I already voted, and no, I didn't vote for this blog once. Because I would rather leave that in the hands of you guys. I don't need my vote to try and win Blog Of The Year. If it happens, it's because of you. You are the ones who read this. 

Though it would take a monumental upset to take down the 3x champ Night Owl Cards. But he is the legend in these parts.

But anything can happen, and it can only happen if you take the few seconds to vote. There are also no long lines, no missing ballots, no questionable people running and you can vote for cards and for blogs. Or one or the other. It's up to you!

Not to mention, you can do it from the comfort of your home with a cup of coffee like I did.

*sips away*

So, take a second and vote for your favorites HERE and don't forget to check back in and read Nachos Grande blog to see the results of your voting.

Have a great rest of your Saturday.
