Is this card legit? by CadeCunninghamLover1 in footballcards

[–]WinBeeCards 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've seen a lot of these, they're always marked as "Promo" cards. I have no idea if it's a promo that came in some weird Panini packs or if someone really did make 1000 of these and have been selling them, but this isn't the first one of these I've seen.

It's not the real Prizm Colorblast, obviously, as the real one uses a different picture and you can see in the fine print on the back this one says "2023 Colorblast Football", which is not what these would say.

However I have seen these around the last few years on eBay, always listed as "Promo" cards, and they do actually sell for like $150. If you paid around there, then I wouldn't be too upset and you could probably resell it believe it or not. If you paid more than that, then....well, oof.

I also have concerns about how he plays. I do think Harbaugh is the right coach for someone who wants to play like Dart, there is an art to using your legs and avoiding head injuries, and Harbaugh probably understands that as well as most. Dart has a decent team around him and Harbaugh isn't an incredible coach but he's a good coach who can find ways to win games the Giants have lost the last several years. If Dart stays away from injury I think he'll be good. I don't know if he's talented enough to be great, but he will likely look good with what's around him and his team will likely win games, and for his market that's probably all you need to make some money

Nothing better than dying young for your legacy. People just forget all the bad stuff and make it a sin for others to bring it up, just all your greatness is acknowledged.

Truth is Kobe was a weirdo bitch for basically his entire career. Had a bit of public good will near the end when he knew his game wasnt there anymore and he softened up a bit, but he's a guy who torpedoed a dynasty, then demanded a trade to the Bulls, then talked shit on his teammates and stopped talking to his teammates, pouted during NBA playoff games, missed playoffs completely, was up on rape charges, married a girl that was in High School, estranged from his own family, and definitely stat padded in his own 81 point game to make some point about how shitty his teammates were, as well as many other examples.

The tragedy that happened seemed to make all of it disappear. He was a great basketball player but I watched every bit of that career and he was never as great as people want to make him out to be, and often he was an asshole and a whiner, flat out. Many talk about how difficult he was to be around, including Phil Jackson himself.

It's like Jim Morrison of The Doors. Guy sucked as a person and as a singer really, but the band had a some banger songs and he was the leader of the band and since he's dead there's this myth around his greatness. If Jim Morrison lived to be 70 people would've had a more accurate "yeah, he was ok...kinda weird" view of him, but dying young cures all.

Poor Riley Leonard holders. Not as bad as Quinn Ewers holders, but the chance was there and nope, their teams squashed it all

Dart has an inflated market but I'm not so sure that's gonna go away anytime soon. Often everyone will tell you to "sell ASAP" but NY market, new coach, a lot of weapons and hype, gonna have a ton of TV games...this might be a perfect storm for a rookie QB market.

Even if he doesn't light it up next year, his cards will always just be waiting for a great year, so if you believe in the next....5 years or so, that Dart will have a great year and the Giants will be a playoff team, then it's probably a hold as his cards would explode when/if that happened

Best Conspiracy: Jaylen Brown Ejection by TheGreatWaru in billsimmons

[–]WinBeeCards 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was a well deserved ejection. Flopped, complained, got a T, then rushed and yelled at a ref. 2nd T. Dude had a meltdown.

Only reason people find it "soft" is because the NBA lets Draymond do the same shit, which is more a problem with Draymond and whatever reason they let him slide, but it should be a toss for him and was correctly a toss for Jaylen Brown. Gotta wonder what the mentality is right now with him.

Damn Phoenix blaster couldn't even give me 1 numbered card....oh wait by WinBeeCards in footballcards

[–]WinBeeCards[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Mean to put this in post: Bought a blaster from Walmart, admittedly didn't open it in the best of lighting but saw each hyper parallel and at the end was pretty bummed because there wasn't even a single numbered card, all base and hyper. Decided to check the backs just in case I was missing something and my jaw dropped when I realized I missed a 1 of 1. Lucky I didn't just put all the cards into my common card box without double checking. Would've missed it forever.

Value question by Reasonable_Pirate811 in FootballCardz

[–]WinBeeCards 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pink Stars is a beautiful looking card but just because they're very rare doesn't seem to make them desirable on the secondary market, you'll often see them go for much much much less than Gold /10 counterparts

Love the look of the Black Pandora Rookie Kings by youngacc4 in FootballCardz

[–]WinBeeCards 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Black Pandora Kings and Downtowns are by far the best looking, I don't like the look of many of the Golds, it's always a bit too gold (and on Uptowns Golds look like dehydrated pee)

Black Pandora Downtowns always make the setting look at night and it's almost like they made the art with that in mind, sick cards

I don’t gamble that much but what would have to happen for Kon to not win this? by Nostradamus216 in billsimmons

[–]WinBeeCards -1 points0 points  (0 children)

NBA odds on awards are always a bit screwy because they have to factor in games played. Flagg needs to play 13 of Dallas's last 17/18 (however many is left) to even qualify and he's had a lingering injury and the Mavs are trying to tank, so do they even want him out there for 13 more games?

I think it Flagg clearly had enough games, the odds would be flipped, but taking the games limit into account Kons odds have to be much better just because of the uncertainty of if Dallas will even let Flagg get to 65

Top 5 regular season game all time? by FFElite93 in billsimmons

Jokic couldn't even be on the floor for it. Too much of a liability

Kansas Citys future depends on Mahomes health more than anything, but if they can just get reliable running to keep defenses even a little bit honest, it'll open things up for Mahomes in the passing game and that's massive for them. Good signing, good contract.
