Dude, that is awesome, I'm a full grown man who has been lifting weights for 25+ years now and I'd have no desire to attempt tackling Allen!

I have two main ones I want graded for sure one is an old (1970) Lew Alcindor card and the other is a new C.J. Stroud auto that I lucked into with one of the first boxes I got since collecting again. Beyond those I likely have some other 80's early 90's rookies but I need to confirm possible...

Thanks bro and appreciate the bump! Next dumb question, I have a handful of cards I want to get graded. I've done a bit of research and am I correct to assume PSA is the way to go assuming you are looking to re-sell them? I know PSA is a higher cost and slower turn around (neither are that...

Awesome man, my son is 7 he doesn't really love karate but he likes it and started at 2 so I think he's just accepted it. He's a green belt and has a tournament coming up in a couple weeks, just a local thing his school against a few others in the area. I told him if he wins I'd take him to...

Appreciate the welcome (even if you are a Bears fan) 😀 My son got exposed to Pokémon cards from his after school karate class, after that I showed him all the old cards I had and he was hooked on both. Now he'll get a pack of his and I'll get a pack of mine and open them together. It's pretty...

Yep, as a Badger fan I watched all his college games and barring injury I think he'll have a good career. Card was pretty cheap and since I'm not looking to flip it I figured it was a good starting point. Somewhat related Wisconsin's successor to Taylor is Braelon Allen and he has all the...

Appreciate the response. I saw a few links to Dacardworld when looking through other threads here so I'm definitely checking them out. I did find a pretty good local shop not too far from me as well. I'll definitely be looking around more at Target and Walmart when I'm there (my son always...

I'd potentially be in for a football or basketball break. I've never done one but at least have a rough understanding of them. Next dumb question, what are "parallels"?

Cool, I bought 2 boxes over the past week, 1 at Walmart and 1 at a local card shop, both the same boxes but Walmart was a little cheaper. Was gonna pick up another at Walmart but they were all gone when I checked again which is what got my curious if I should be looking in more places. I've...

Thanks fellow bench warmer 😁

What's up everyone?! I collected cards as a kid (primarily baseball but some football and basketball from the 80's and 90's), and now am a father who's son is starting to get into the hobby hence bringing me back into it. I grew up in Wisconsin (though now live in the Atlanta suburbs) so I'm...
