Fine. This is me. This past summer on vacation in Toronto watching the Tigers & Blue Jays. Doing my best to force a smile after:

A. Banging my the back of my head when I sat down on that rail behind it.

B. Biting my tongue so hard it drew blood when I bit down on my 30.48 CM long hot dog.

Doug Jones.

Buybacks from the 21st Century should be a crime.

I watched Invisible Man last year. It's amazing!

(I would watch a feature length documentary about the special effects alone. Pretty fantastic for a movie that's almost 100 years old.)

Ha! Reading this for the first time right now.

As a member, it’s doubly seething to see my bank spend $$$ on commercials for a bank that most people can’t join, while those who can absolutely know it already. It’s no secret in the military community. Huge waste of money.

Not vinyl, but I bought a used book once and got home to find a baby’s ultra sound pics in the back of it.

There has been a great showcasing of 1988 Topps on my feed this week. Here's my go to stock pic of the greatness of that set. Happy Friday! #cardsky

I sorted 2 wax boxes worth over the last few nights. I love this set. It's a quiet all-timer design.

He's a major red ass. That might work with 21 year old kids, but I can't see it flying with major leaguers. Gonna be fun to watch!

Raul Mondesi, Shawn Green, Rickey Henderson, Alfredo Griffin... you could make a pretty solid team here.

I had a Yankee fan in my office this morning complaining that the Dodgers are buying championships...

On the 40th anniversary of the ‘85 World Series, we get a WS matchup of the runner ups from that year. Ain’t baseball magical?

Boobie Maine @boobiemaine.bsky.social · 9d

Hoping this game goes 40 innings and it's still on when I get up for work in the morning.

Old albums that I've "discovered" in the last week that are the 💣!

They were 4-2 last year!

I hope Harris gets a haul for Skubal because it sounds like he's pitched his last game for the Tigers.

Boobie Maine @boobiemaine.bsky.social · 13d

I'm in the small group that thinks 83D was an "improvement" on 82D. The colors are much more vibrant. I prefer the script lettering on the glove over the plain lettering on the ball.

83D seems like the least talked about flagship set of the 80's and there's not a close second. 89 Score maybe?

83T was the 1st time I bought a complete set (out of the back of The Sporting News).

83F cello packs were plentiful at the drugstore down the street from our house. I was a bike riding, pack searching fiend trying to complete that set.

83D I bought a few packs once & never saw them anywhere again.

Beauty of a Game @beautyofagame.bsky.social · 13d

It’s 1983. I’m hoping to find Topps, I’d take Donruss but I’d settle for Fleer.

Boobie Maine @boobiemaine.bsky.social · 14d

I bought one years ago at a show for $5. Easy peasy.

Just saw this on FB the other day. Cheat code for finding a Ripken FF. Crazy that we were just talking about this.

Didn't reinvent the wheel musically, but the lyrics just hit right at age 24 and I'll never tire of it. Things is pure poetry and an all-time great.
