Stopped by the LCS on Monday, and picked up 2 packs each of Topps & Bowman Chrome. As luck would have it, I managed to pull a hit from each brand.
We'll start with Topps Chrome. By now, everyone knows what to expect here; 4 cards per pack of chromey goodness, with some WBC inserts thrown in for good measure.
Pack 1:#16 David Ortiz
#184 Shairon Martis
#3 Dan Uggla refractor
there's some sort of funkiness on the bottom left corner of this card. It's below the surface, so it appears to be a "factory defect"#37 Carlos Delgado
Pack 2:#6 Phil Coke
#119 Hank Blalock
#237 George Kottaras autograph
why couldn't you have been Nolan Reimold?#132 Derek Lowe
Finally got me a Topps Chrome auto... too bad it's of a Red Sox player. Still not too shabby for $6 worth of chrome packs.
Now, let's move along to the BoChro. These were the first 2 packs of this year's that I've opened, and I must say that I like it considerably more than the flagship Bowman release, or even this year's Topps Chrome release. I also picked up 2 packs, so let's see how I did:
Pack 1:#BCW48 Dennis Neuman WBC
BCW50 Alfredo Despaigne WBC
#115 Jason Bay
#29 Russell Martin
Pack 2:#BCP171 Bryan Shaw
#BCP180 Taylor Harbin
#BCP161 Mark Hallberg #04/50
I'd of rather pulled Mark Wahlberg.
#31 Rich Harden
Well that about does her. 4 packs of chrome, posted for your viewing pleasure. All cards are for trade, so if you're interested in something, don't hesitate to drop a comment.
On a side note, how come no one ever told me "My Name is Earl" is so damned funny? I hate it when i don't realize a show's brilliance until it's in syndication. It happened with Futurama, King of the Hill, and now My Name is Earl. At least it's on TBS every day now, so I won't have to wait a week between episodes.
