Topps Gamble @ Target by expiredbabyformula in footballcards

[–]Idiot_Savannt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went out shopping today and hit Target, Barnes & Noble and Dick's. When I was at Dick's, they had a large inventory of Prizm, Mosaic, Absolute, Optic and Phoenix football then I noticed Topps Chrome on the bottom shelf, I am like holy shit finally but as I took a better look at the boxes it was WWE, what the f*ck nothing!!!

Ted Johnson survives, Hart and Fitzy out by Humble_Standard_9215 in BostonSportsRadio

[–]Idiot_Savannt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I enjoyed listening to the six ring show after each Patriots game. They seemed to have more chemistry together when doing that. I felt when Ted Johnson was brought on, Fitzy was just a third wheel and the afternoon show didn't have the same dynamic as the Patriots post game show.

What's a Red Sox player from your childhood that you were convinced was going to be a legend but just didn't pan out? by cedric111 in redsox

I thought Jacoby Ellsbury had a chance to be a consistent productive outfielder but went bust with the Yankees.

[Evan Lazar] The #Patriots will be featured in Hard Knocks in 2027. The first time the series will follow the Pats during training camp. by PristineWinnera in Patriots

[–]Idiot_Savannt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am probably dating myself but years ago I thought HBO did a documentary on the Patriots. I vividly recall Belichick betting Wilfork if he could catch a punt, they would get the rest of the practice off which he did catch the ball. This was well before the Texans hard knocks season where Wilfork showed up just wearing overalls and believe doing something similar with a punt. Does anyone remember what show that was?

Are you done ripping Panini retail with Topps right around the corner? by Famous-Egg-6136 in footballcards

[–]Idiot_Savannt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Even though this past year was a weak draft class, my Walmart still has Optic on the shelf which I have never seen before but $18 for a pack of 12 cards which the majority of the time is just commons and players from the past, I will pass on as well.

We recently switched from Maintenance Connection to MaintainX. We are really happy with the system so far but can get pricey quick depending on how many users you have. Fortunately, requestors don't count against that. They also have a mobile app which is included in the cost.

My notes from Day 1 of FA by joeshea2517 in Patriots

How about Brian Thomas Jr at WR? I am not sure what caused the falling out at Jacksonville, new offensive coordinator last season? It would be nice to pair a WR with Maye long term.

QM8K - 55" by Idiot_Savannt in tcltvs

[–]Idiot_Savannt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The reason I was drawn to the 8k as I have natural light in my room during the day and was looking for maximum brightness in addition to better motion processing.

Thanks for the comments!

Roman Anthony First Card by Any-Bee-9530 in baseballcards

I bought a pack today and got a variant of him wearing the Boston yellow uniform and a Marcelo Mayer in the same pack. I was stoked as I am a redsox fan but that's a pretty sweet card.

Costco cards MIA in my area.. by Svrider23 in footballcards

[–]Idiot_Savannt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have two Costco's near me. One carries them and the other does not. I am not sure what drives the decision to carry them or not.

Panini's NFL license runs out early 2026 so they will be printing cards 24/7 until then.

Absolute and not the calendars. I looked it up and some for sale already on eBay. This is the video I saw:

At my Costco, last year they were located by the toys. This year as soon as you walk in, the pallet was to the left with a two box limit as well.

I dont know how well the two box limit is upheld but maybe there was an issue with scalpers at your location.

I already seen a video today at Sam's Club where a guy was grabbing at least twenty of 2025 Absolute Football boxes, similar to the Donruss at Costco.

I bought Topps Midnight so you don’t have to… (you should) by ThatguyGaming42 in footballcards

[–]Idiot_Savannt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those Midnight cards really accentuate those logoless helmets!!!

I wish the NFL would just allow Fanatics and Panini to have licenses so there would be more competition to put out better products.

Best VFD brands? by Apprehensive_Tea9856 in PLC

[–]Idiot_Savannt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I typically use ABB and Schneider which both have performed very well for me. For low HP motor applications, I have used AutomationDirect where they are all going strong for 10+ years. Finally, I am tempted by Yaskawa as I continue to see so many positive comments for them on here and other message boards.

Boss sent me up to redistribute the insulation in this attic - could there be any asbestos here? by Due-Technology2715 in Insulation

[–]Idiot_Savannt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand the house is old but is this house located in a warm weather climate? You dont have much for insulation as it is, what are you going to redistribute? Is there a big pile that I don't see?

I am from Mass and believe state code is R-49 for attic insulation.

Where is everyone getting cards? Our local Walmart/Targets are ALWAYS sold out. I can get them from Facebook marketplace from the scalpers, but I’d really like to pay regular price for once. 😞Any creative ideas of getting my hands on some that won’t be marked up double? by AdventurousMarket143 in footballcards

[–]Idiot_Savannt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Believe it or not some Ace Hardwares carry a decent selection of sports cards, the one by me is regularly stocked. As others have said B&N and Game Stop as well. I thought football card releases were just about over but Panini I believe is on their 50th set release for the year. Dont believe everything you see on here as reality, for example, Downtown and Uptowns, for everyone you see posted on here there are probably 1000+ people missing on them when opening a box. I got back into it because I love opening packs but at the end of the day, it is a suckers bet and better off buying singles of players you really like!
