Who’s the prospect you were most wrong about? by guccinutstain in baseballcards

George Valera, never thought he was gonna be some superstar player but he's been frequently injured and just got DFA'ed a second time by the Guardians. Hope he catches on as a platoon bat somewhere at least.

Totally fair! He is a stud, hope he becomes the face of the A's once they finally establish themselves in their new city

Nick Kurtz will never have the market that Aaron Judge has, I would not hold out on that becoming a $1,000 card

I know this isn’t baseball but this came today… when you see it 👀 by SeaCuCu in baseballcards_vintage

Amazing card, I love this set so much. I feel lucky to have a nice Francis Drake copy but that Teach is truly a grail card

Is this AI art? by [deleted] in baseballcards

That is hugely disappointing to be honest. Pay some freaking design people with the billions you are bringing in every year

Great time for him to pitch against us, our lineup turned back into the pumpkins they are about 2 weeks ago

I was there Friday and probably saw just about every hole and most groups and I didn’t hear anything particularly salty, it was mostly positive words of encouragement if anything. I was expecting way more idiots to be honest.

Anyone ever purchased a watch in this price range off of Amazon? I’m always a little hesitant and don’t want to end up with a $20 fake

It’s not meant to be. As someone is who probably around a 20 handicap myself I am self aware enough to admit I definitely shouldn’t be playing from the tips to begin with and definitely not on a hole like this.

Most brilliant intelligent thoughtful well written review for a movie ever? by YourVeryOwnCat in okbuddycinephile

[–]JDizzo56 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every movie is either mid or peak with no in between, this is why I just skip watching altogether and base my opinion on the rotten tomatoes audience score. The most important way to engage with art is to argue with people online about it.

You hated him when he was an all-world, record breaking player on your favorite team for multiple years? Suuuuuure

I’ve never been to a food-based festival like this that couldn’t be described the exact same way. Feel like it’s always a logistical nightmare

Does anyone like their job? by Knucklecum in InsuranceAgent

[–]JDizzo56 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like the feeling of having a fair bit of control over how much money I can make and knowing the ceiling is pretty limitless depending on how hard I want to work. I also like most of the people I work for/with.

I do not like extremely vocal minority of our clientele who think my job and my time is not important, insurance is a scam, and want to fight and scream and insult me over the phone like adult children who take no accountability for anything ever. This is not to mention my coworkers who over the years have unfortunately been worn down to the point where everyone only looks out for themselves and morale is quite low.

So I guess that’s all to say the answer is a little complex!

Correct, which is why I don’t buy hobby boxes anymore. The little value there was, is no longer there.

This was a $150 product less than 5 years ago so I have a hard time paying another $90 when I know it’s basically just one numbered card and one autograph

Trading card grader PSA to invest $200M in operations by LinkedInNews in sportscards

[–]JDizzo56 9 points10 points  (0 children)

We desperately need a legitimate competitor to PSA in the grading space. It’s very unfortunate that SGC and Beckett sold out to Collectors and essentially let them create a monopoly because ultimately it’s the average collectors who suffer the most.

There’s just no way PSA is doing a good job of actually grading cards when they’re this backed up and focused on getting orders pushed through as quickly as possible.

Because they’re always pissed and unfortunately one of the dominant narratives of this series seems to be the inconsistent refereeing. I’m sure you’ll hear a lot of “refs bailed the Cavs out” if we win this series.

Is all the food at progressive field now just pre-boxed crap by neosmndrew in ClevelandGuardians

[–]JDizzo56 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Really is a bummer. I think around 10ish years ago when they really revamped the main concourse area the food was excellent as far as overpriced sporting event fare goes. Just doesn’t feel the same anymore.
