“Pin-Up” of the Week: Oakland Raiders Poker Chip Pin

Al Davis was a gambler, gangster, and one of the most feared men in professional football.  Davis didn’t let anything stand in his way.  He will always be remembered as one of the most controversial owners in NFL history.  If there was a rule he didn’t agree with, he had no problem breaking it.  That’s why I thought this Oakland Raiders poker chip pin would do well for this week.  These are easy to find and aren’t that expensive.

Braden Gives Collectors More Reasons To Bust ’07 Exquisite

First off I’d like to say congrats to Dallas Braden for pitching the 19th perfect game in MLB history.  I can’t imagine how difficult it would be to retire 27 batters in a row.

Braden is one of those players whose actual rookie cards contain the famous “Rookie Card” logo.  Usually collectors treat “First Year” cards with more respect than the funky logo ones.  But in this case Braden doesn’t have any “First Year” cards to go after.  2007 Upper Deck Exquisite Baseball has become a very popular product and I constantly catch collectors busting boxes online.  Having the chance of pulling a Lincecum or Braden signature, along with other popular rookies and veterans will only increase the demand of this product.  ’07 UD Exquisite Baseball is one product Upper Deck did extremely well on.  Braden’s perfect game will just add fuel to this popular brand.

Now, go dig out your Dallas Braden cards!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dolphins Win Again!

This is the best season the Dolphins have had in a long time 🙂

$18.00 + for this

Can you believe that the Oakland A’s website is selling Jose Canseco 1986 Fleer Rookie cards for $18.00 plus shipping.  Who would spend that much for this card?  Your lucky if these sell for $0.99 on eBay.  I can’t imagine that people are actually buying them.
