YOU'RE FIRED!

 

It was time.

All of us could see it coming. When you blow multiple double digit leads in games where coaching shouldn't have, you lose your job.

Also starting out 2-8 multiple years in a row and being on the hot seat for three years now....it's time.

I appreciate the run of 2022 Coach Daboll and the playoff win, but outside of that, it's been torture.

I am hoping this time that the NY Giants can right the ship with an experienced coach. They have the players in place, just need a coach to lead them.

It will be interesting to see how this weekends game goes against the Packers with interim coach Mike Kafka a former QB in the league. I am still rooting them on and would love to see a win.

Cool Team Parallels

 They don't make them too often, but when they do, I try to at least grab one.

What am I talking about, I am talking about team parallels.

 

Last year's Phoenix product included them as one of the parallels, one of many, to chase.

The parallel features the NY Giants helmet in the background of the card.

I didn't know they existed until I saw another collector post about them and then I immediately had to look up the Giants to see. Most weren't too cheap, except this one of Theo Johnson. It was awhile ago I added this, but I believe it was under $3 which is up my spending alley.

 

These parallels are numbered to 399. I would also like to point out an actual card back photo. I miss the days when they did this.

I would love to get the complete team player run of these but may have to wait until a few others drop in a cheap range to do so, I am talking about you Malik Nabers.

In comments today, let's hear what you think about team parallels and cool photo card backs.

Have a magnificent Monday!

Rodney's Cardboard:2023 Select Gold /10

Here are some things that won't surprise you today.

It's Sunday.

The NY Giants stink.

And I am posting another cool Rodney Hampton card.

Any of that surprise you? I didn't think so.

So here I am back on here with a new Rodney Hampton post. 

I didn't feel like Cards Over Coffee was still the right place to post Rodney Hamptons. Something didn't sit right with me posting them there after I have done it so long on here and on Sport Card Collectors blog. 

Since I have given up on posting on Sport Card Collectors blog, I will post them here instead.

Today's card came from a RAK from a buddy of mine in Twitter who surprised me with a few different Rodney's I didn't have.

With so, so many Rodney's being pumped out by Topps and Panini the last three years, I haven't been able to keep up. That's both a good and bad thing. It means there is more to chase, but however, it means I won't be able to get it all. I have lost out on quite a few key ones already (insert crying emoji).

But, I can only do what I can only do and will just add what I can. At least I can share a beauty of a card like today's with you guys.

Let me know in comments your thoughts on today's Rodney and let's hear what else isn't surprising to you this Sunday.

I will be tuning into the Giants game today for some reason, but hey, you never know I guess (unless you are a Giants fan)
