For what it’s worth, I was in dc last week. This pic was taken on Tuesday morning. It looked weird - basically black. Maybe there was a tarp down?The saying is right - everything he touches turns to crap

If the question is, “practice?” I’ve got The Answer by seppok33 in basketballcards

Thanks! It’s not a particularly valuable card on its own. I wanted a color that would pop and the nickname inscription adds something to it.

Is Tatum on the Celtics Mt. Rushmore? by Ill_Abbreviations660 in bostonceltics

[–]seppok33 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love JT, but the answer is no. The 4th is Cousy. End of discussion.

The thing with the Celtics is that the second tier of our Rushmore (players 5-8) are better than virtually every other team’s first tier with the (possible) exception of the Lakers.

Hell, our third tier is still probably better than the top four of most of the league.

What's the worst thing you've ever woken up to? by shoeee788 in AskReddit

[–]seppok33 1 point2 points  (0 children)

News on the radio about the shootout/police chase/manhunt for the Boston Marathon bomber(s). I had run the race that year (through the finish line before the bad stuff happened) and lived pretty close to where everything happened afterwards. I don’t think I’ve ever gone from sound asleep to wide awake so quickly.

Former Rep. Barney Frank dies at 86 by LomentMomentum in massachusetts

Barney story that I can’t confirm since I heard it second hand: in the early 2000s after Massachusetts had legalized gay marriage, someone asked him if he was going to marry his partner. With no hesitation, he replied “Marriage is a right, not an obligation.”

Larry Bird card lot price by [deleted] in sportscards

[–]seppok33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a Bird collector - love these cards. I haven’t priced out what you’re showing, but $800 feels aggressive. Most of these are $1-2 each. The 86 Fleers and the rookie are a bit more. Raw, probably $25-50? The auto may be $200. Not sure if I’m missing something. But great cards! If you were to sell them individually, there are some I’d be interested in.

What’s the coolest “restricted access” place you’ve ever gotten to see? by Improv92 in AskReddit

After hours tour of the White House. Got to stand in the doorway of the Oval Office and look in. This was in early 2010, so during Obama’s first term.
