Blog Bat Around: Post From A Phone

*on the road with the mrs driving, she doesn’t like my driving  so figured I might as well do a post from my phone and sip on some coffee. takes a sip, continues to type*

How many of us bloggers actually do a blog post from our phones? I bet not many. I know I loathe doing so as it’s much harder to type and use all of the options I need to do a post. 

Especially if you are using photos.

So even though I am cheating today and not using photos for my post, I am challenging the rest of you bloggers to do a post from your phone and use photos. Let’s see how this turns out and how many errors or blips along the way occur while doing so. 

Also how long it takes you to do it.

*takes a sip, almost spills coffee, and she worries about my driving….*

Other than discussing doing a post from a phone and doing this one that way, I did have a point to this post as well. I wanted to share the link to my second article on Beckett so you guys can give it a read and maybe a comment.

Check out 1996 Zenith Z-Team football here:https://www.beckett.com/news/second-look-1996-zenith-football-z-team/

Sorry for such a short post, but that’s all I got for you today.

*takes a sip as we reach the grocery shopping trip destination*

Looking forward to seeing your posts from a phone. This was mine and it wasn’t easy. It took roughly the hour and a half to do even though it’s short.

Have a great Saturday and pour yourself a nice hot cup of coffee.

Second Look

Hey guys! I have my coffee and I am getting ready to read a new article and series posted on Beckett.com called Second Look.

The Article is HERE

*takes a sip*

After clicking the link I had to do a second look! At the top of the article was my name! Wait… that must mean…Guess what??!! I wrote it!

*takes a sip*

I am happy to announce I am writing on Beckett’s website a series called Second Look.

Second Look is a series that will take you back to the nostalgic days of the 90s. I know the first article in the series features 1989 Upper Deck baseball, but the rest of the series will feature other sets in the 90s across all sports and non sports that really needed a second look. Whether they were underrated sets, iconic in some way or simply important to me. 

They will get a second look. 

It’s almost like the look you gave out of the corner of your eye to the girl you saw across the room while your wife watched you. Except you won’t have to sleep on the couch to read my series.

But, if you wanted to read my series on the couch that’s fine with me.

So I hope all of you enjoy my new adventure. I am not sure how long it will be for, but it will be a few months at least. With some reading or comments from you guys on my articles, my dream to continue writing for Beckett could go longer.

As for this blog, don’t fret, there is still more coffee and cards to come! There may be some gaps in posting, but the blog will brew on!!

*takes a sip before finishing up todays post*

Before I close, I just wanted to thank you guys again for reading this blog. I never would have stepped outside my comfort zone as much as I have this year and even approached Beckett without your guys reading, comments and encouragement. 

Thank you.

In comments today, I would welcome any suggestions from any sport or non-sport on a set you think needs a second look. I have a list started and who knows…maybe one you choose will make it or has already!

(Side note, writing blog posts are not ideal on a cell phone, just saying)
