My $250 toilet flush...

My $250 toilet flush...
Had the itch at the mall yesterday (our only LCS until I hit Denver or Cheyenne) so bought a box of Absolute and Strata. Should have taken the cash and flushed it straight down the toilet...would have been more satisfying.


Absolute: You know you're in deep sh** when your veteran auto is a second year kid with only 500 yards receiving.

Strata: Even worse. It's truly sad when the best hit is the $10 base Luck. Of course, the sting is that the guy in front of me pulled a 3 color patch/auto of Doug Martin. The guys at the shop said "oh, you got Pead on." Uhhhhh, yeah. You think??

Ouch, sorry you didnt do so well Wendy. I think Strata is like Inception, its hit or miss just because its an all rookie product. Greg Little is at least a Tar Heel Smile .

RE: My $250 toilet flush...
ouch, and that's why I usually stick to the bay or just buy blaster boxes. Had the same thing with my Chrome hobby box. $90 for the box, and the best card I got was a Lamar Miller on card auto (worth $15.00)...

I wish that Hobby boxes had some of the better performing players guaranteed in them, and not to make the collectors feel like sh** when we watch our money go down the toilet..

Hit me up if you've got any Lynch, Turbin, or Seahawks cards you'd like to trade!

It's one of those experiences that makes me question this hobby.

The guy at the shop said, "You know, I think Givens will be good. Bradford is getting hot." I wanted to tell him to @%$%&&#$@#!!, but instead said "Yeah, thanks."

I like cards serial numbered 34/xx
