5 Things I Did In The Hobby Last Week

Welcome to the next edition of 5 Things I Did In The Hobby Last Week. I am glad a few of you have reached out and let me know this is one of your favorite segments on here. I like information such as that.

But, for those of you that are new to this segment, here is the background to it:

This series is once again related/played on by Elon Musk's email to government officials in February 2025 asking them about what five things they did.

Also, once again, this is not about politics. I just liked the idea.

*its best to never post politics, make friends, not enemies*

*takes sip of freshly brewed coffee*

Here we go onto my five things.

1.As always, I did a lot more social media posts across my planet of them. I started doing Rodney Hampton, Eli Manning updates along with small mail day posts on there since it's much faster to send out a social media message than putting up a big blog post.

If you want to catch up on stuff you missed out on, here is a list of all of my social media channels:Cards Over Coffee YouTube Channel is for cards:

Cards Over Coffee - YouTube

Matt's World Of Fun YouTube Channel is for everything else:
Matt's World Of Fun! - YouTube

On top of this, I have two Facebook accounts, Cards Over Coffee and Sport Card Collectors,

Twitter/X: Coffee Card Guy

Instagram account: Coffee Card Guy

Bluesky as Cards Over Coffee

There you have that. Now go check me out on those!

2. Eli Manning updated on TCDB!
 
It took me a good hour, but I finally took the time to update all of my Eli Mannings onto TCDB! That felt like quite the accomplish.

3. I did some blogging!
 
Besides a couple of posts on here, I have been putting a few posts up on Big Blue Cardboard, my NY Giants blog. You can subscribe and check it out HERE. My next job on there is to update that blog like the Giants have updated their team. Daboll era is over!

I have also put a few random posts up on Sport Card Collectors. Once again, this is my main blog now, but I am keeping that one alive the best I can with the time I have.

4. Did some trading! For some reason or another, I decided to do some bigger amount of cards trades. Shipping won't be cheap and I swear this will be the last time for a lonnnnggg time.

5. Commented on other blogs and replied to ones made on here and Big Blue Cardboard. I am always replying to readers.

And there you have it. Five things I did in the hobby last week.

I hope to keep this series going when I have time to post on it.

*takes this posts final sip*

Tell me five things you did in the hobby last week or make a comment on mine. I will make sure to read and comment back on all of them.

Have a great Saturday!

I Like To Write

I apparently like to write.

For the past few weeks, I have been thinking about all of the writing I have done over the years, not only on this blog but for other websites and how nice it would be to combine it all into one post just in case anyone wanted to check it out and just so I have it all in one place.

I also went back and re-read some of my work. 

One thing I have noticed over the years is that some of my older pieces compared to my newest show my progression in writing and how I think it's gotten better. It may not be pro level, but it's better.

Here are some of my early posts that I did for Bags Unlimited, a card supply company, on their blog Collection Connections.
Sports Boards Review

Here is my one and only published in a magazine Beckett Article that they also put on their website here,
https://www.beckett.com/news/dont-break-these-sports-card-collecting-rules/

Here is a mini-series I wrote for Beckett called Second Look where I took a look back at some fun 80's and 90's cards,

And here is my lone article so far on COMC (Check Out My Cards),

And I also write/written on my other two blogs,
Sport Card Collectors

As long as I can find the time to do so, I don't plan on slowing down on any of this anytime soon. But, as I always say, family first and writing second. Especially since I do this as another hobby and not in it for the money. Though it would be nice to find a job where I write about sport cards all of the time and get paid to do so.

I hope all of you enjoy the above pieces and my other ones to come.

Have a Super Sunday, God Bless.
