The Rodney Brew:2024 Topps Chrome Sapphire Orange /25

*coffee is prepped, time for a new post finally on Cards Over Coffee*

I have been playing around where to post my Rodney Hampton adds and I still keep circling back to this blog since it's my main blog even though my NY Giants posts never really attract the readers on here.

Oh well, it's my blog.

*takes a sip*

This is a new Rodney Hampton post and card as opposed to some random re-used ones I have been doing on Sport Card Collectors.

So, you guys will be the first to see this card.

This Rodney is apart of my HUGE 2024 Topps Chrome chase which has close to 40 parallels which is both fun and insane.

The Rodney today is apart of the Sapphire spinoff which only has six parallels as opposed to the regular Chrome that has over thirty. The bad part is I missed out on the 1/1 for Sapphire, I have yet to see the 1/1 Superfractor for Chrome.

Today's is the Orange parallel which is numbered to 25 and falls 1:17 packs. That doesn't sound too tough until you factor in not only the odds, but the number of players. Which is why only one of these has popped up that I have seen.

I really like how Sapphire really pops with the background design.

*takes a sip before finishing up today's post*

Well, life and school has kept me busy, but I still watch my weekly Giants game. Today, they take on the Eagles that they finally beat two weeks ago. I thought the season was turning around until they blew it last week in the fourth quarter by giving up 33 points in a game they dominated for three quarters.

Will they beat the Eagles today? I doubt it. Especially with last weeks hangover.

But, you never know.

Hope everyone has a great Sunday.

The Rodney Brew: 2023 Spectra Psychedelic /5

It's a Sunday without football, unless you count that horrible Pro Bowl games, so it's going to be a long wait to the Super Bowl. 

At least I have my coffee. And my cards. And Cards Over Coffee.

Then after that, a longer wait until Free Agency which I find just as much fun. Especially since the Giants have some money to spend.

Speaking of the Giants, I have a new Rodney.

This is my latest add to my 2023 Spectra chase. This chase has been a slow-go with not too many popping up and many to chase.

This is one of the rare ones to find being limited to only 5.

I now have 9 of the 13 total in this run. Who in their right mind creates 13 autograph parallels??? Especially since most look the same.

Thanks goes out to former blogger and good friend Wes for helping me acquire this one.

Hope everyone has a great Sunday.

The Rodney Brew: 2023 Topps Resurgence Green Surge

It's almost been a year to the day since I last published one of these segment posts. With the lack of action on Sport Card Collectors blog on these or any of my posts and the lack of desire to do more than one blog or have time to in my life, welcome back The Rodney Brew.

What's The Rodney Brew. It's a very special brew that involves in my latest Rodney Hampton adds to my Super PC and I have some whoppers to show off but also a couple cool ones as well.

Like this 2023 Topps Resurgence Green Surge that is numbered to 175.

 

I really like the look of these despite missing the logos.

 

But, the backs, well.....terrible.

Well, that does it for today's card and quick post. I need to get my mind wrapped around what is the last game of my NFL season as the Giants take on the Eagles today. Sadly, I can't watch it as the Patriots are on TV instead and the site methstreams I have been using to stream has been pulled too. It will be watching for updates kind of game.

Hope everyone has a great last week of the NFL regular season Sunday. May your team be victorious! Unless you are an Eagles fan. Then I am sorry. We can just bond over coffee but not football.

The Rodney Brew: 1992 Sports Card Price Guide Monthly Uncut Sheet

*the first cup of a new month. tastes as good as the previous months, except i can say it's a new month*

*takes a sip*

The blogging community is full of great individuals who are always looking out for each other.

At the beginning of June, yes another one of these "it's taking me forever to post" posts and Angus from Dawg Day Cards sent me an email and told me that he had bought a pile of magazines from a show and in the pile was an uncut sheet featuring Rodney Hampton and wanted to know if I was interested.

And you know what...I was!

I had the card already, but I did not have an uncut sheet of it and it was going to be a great addition to my uncut Rodney sheets.

In the mail about a week or two later....

Came the uncut sheet featuring a mix of players including the most important one on it, Rodney.

The back of sheet features what card each player was first featured on which for Rodney was 1990 Upper Deck and which one was his most valuable which was the 1990 Topps Supplemental. Sadly that card can be had for cents now-a-days.

Thanks again to Angus for this great addition to my Rodney collection. If you haven't checked out his blog or added him to your blogroll, please do as I linked his blog above.

Hope everyone has a great Saturday and make sure you finish that cup of coffee you forgot about on the counter.

The Rodney Brew:2020 Select Black Die-Cut 1/1

Hello there fellow coffee fans! And card collectors too! I hope you have a cup of coffee ready to go along with today's post.

It's been close to a year since I posted a new card in this segment. One of the biggest reasons for that is the lack of new Rodney Hamptons on the market. It appears his run of cards is over with Panini as I don't see any coming up and all of 2022 was Rodney-Less.

Pretty much what remains to my Rodney chase are rares and obviously rare cards are hard to come by.

Fortunately, though, a few did pop up since last year and thanks to a very generous Christmas package from my buddy Wes, I hauled in some amazing ones.

*takes a sip*

I had two cards left for my 2020 Select autograph chase, both 1/1's. One was a base 1/1 and then there was a die-cut version 1/1. I wasn't ever sure they would pop up especially since the products are getting older and probably sitting in warehouses somewhere with my Rodney's inside of them.

Luckily one of them finally popped up, the die-cut version.

It's a really sharp card. I really like the appeal. It's like a dark roast coffee.

 

Back of card gives the autograph guarantee along with the 1/1 info.

Thanks again to my buddy Wes for sending this my way.

There are still more Rodney's to show off from my Christmas package from Wes.

Thoughts on this card is welcomed in comments.

Hope everyone has a great Tuesday Night.

The Rodney Brew: 2021 Illusions Trophy Collection 1/1

*takes a sip, gets ready for a new cards over coffee post on this fine Sunday*

It has taken me some time to think of a good name for a Rodney Hampton segment on this blog, I have finally come up with a good one finally I believe.

Hope you are ready for some Rodney Brew. It's a special combination of coffee and Rodney that will include the newest additions to my Super Collection of Rodney Hampton cards.

This newest segment will be added to the lineup of these ones already established,

• Coffee Break
• The State Of The Hobby
• Unfinished Cup
• Coffee With
• Would You Rather
• Slice Of American Pie
• Giant Cup

I still need to think of a way to intertwine my newest Kerry Collins, Charles Way, and Eli Mannings. I would be happy to take some suggestions below! Maybe even turn those all into one segment name.

As for today, let's move on and talk about some Rodney.

*takes a sip before moving onto the next card*

*before moving on, gets up and stretches. this is actually Friday and I am getting three posts together for the weekend so need a stretch*

*stretches*

*sits back down, takes another sip and moves on with the card talk*

Today's Rodney is a huge one. I go from questioning chasing this series of Rodney's since the main focus of this one is Saquon to actually landing the biggest card in the chase thanks to my buddy Shane from Cheap Wax Wednesday fame.

 

The 1/1 is mine!! This is probably the first Rodney rainbow chase I have done with landing the 1/1 earlier on before finishing it.

This design is a bit funky with the diamond shapes.

 

Back of the card looks like the rest.

Once again, here are the ones that I know exist and I will cross off the ones I have with every post. The ones that are offered are, /35, /25, /10, /5 and 1/1. If there are any others outside of these, that information would be new to me.

The only one left for the rainbow is the /35. There is one on eBay which is listed for a higher BIN than this 1/1 went for. I guess I will wait on that one for awhile.

Thanks to my buddy Shane for helping with this one.

*takes a sip before finishing up today's post*

I think rainbow chases are fun, though very costly. I hope to finish this Rodney one up soon, but not sure how long it will take before I do. At least I got the toughest ones out of the way.

I may post all of my Rodney rainbows at some point together in one post.

Thoughts on today's addition and I am also curious which segment is your favorite(s) so far on here.
