Jesse the body: "Mean Gene, this one will be fun to watch. All of these champions in the ring all at once, you know there just has to be a conspiracy theory, or maybe several in play here!"
and hats off to mel Gibson for the conspiracy motif!
Awww...I miss doing these.
Lew47 is in as a past champion in 2008!
"THE BODY": There ya are McMahon! I thought there was a conspiracy for sure! I thought Lew couldn't have been a past champion in 2008, they are just bending the rules to get him in, as the Battle Royals weren't going in 2008! I knew where to go to confirm this information....and the facts show that these HAVE been going since 2008. I have been able to confirm that this is NOT a conspiracy! I'll keep my eyes out though!
If extremely late former champions are aloud to climb secretly into the ring, I am game....pokes BEANS in the eyes
Nyuk, nyuk, nyuk
I'm gonna get stomped from the looks of past's one's I saw, in fact I'm nervous
and mr 264 .. the champs are crawling out from the woodwork for this one!
my condolences
i THINK i got all the categories now
Wow..
Don't sing it; bring it.
Lil waiting for football final
so we all can start thinking..
The first round Pick by the chipster
Is Baseball oriented!!
You're smiling? Pretty sure we could team up on ace and he'd take us all down w/o breaking a sweat. Have you seen his bucket?
As the youngest participant im prepared for an up hill battle. Tha Chipster doesnt walk away from a fight.
and here we go!
The ring is full of trash cans, ladders, tables, chairs, sledgehammers and other implements of destruction!
the competitors music pops one by one as the combatants enter the squared circle.
Alliances are being formed. Individuals stand willing and ready to sacrifice their bodies and minds to gain a pinfall!
Round 1
Show us your best card of a 3rd baseman
From bravesfan09
You have 48 hours to BRING IT!
Where did everyone go? They can't all be scared of me.
Rolie played 3rd in T-Ball......I could scan the other Schidt in the picture....
Decisions decisions. 6 very nice choices here. Hmm.
See ya in 40 hours
6 hmmm got me thinking
is that all
LOL!
as he slips the brass knuckles from his trunks
lets see..
6 is a good number
on the front are these three!
Now let me clarify this pick before the henchman come a hanging
Ripken also a 3b
in 1982 Ryno played a 133 games at 3B for my cubbies so A 3B he is too!
and of course schmitty well maybe the greatest ever
http://s1235.photobucket.com/user/collectorshotcorner/media/Baseball%20HOF%20Autos/052_zps3f07f128.jpg.html
and on the back
is one 3b!
BUT
Robin yount didn't play a game at 3b
and Gwynn spent entire career in OF
Just had to flash that but around in case you were not reading LOL
http://s1235.photobucket.com/user/collectorshotcorner/media/Baseball%20HOF%20Autos/053_zps8617f38b.jpg.html
there is no problem lew47
anything goes as long as the card meets the qualification
well, I was going back and forth on what to put up here thinking I might have chance, but with ace's card no one does so instead of wasting anymore time between auto's and 1/1's I will post a card I really enjoy as part of my collection both for the third baseman on it and the visual aspect of the card itself:
http://s238.photobucket.com/user/waxbusters/media/Mail%20days/dk002.jpg.html
Well i dont much see the point now so il just show this.
http://s1235.photobucket.com/user/collectorshotcorner/media/chipster_zps1842874a.png.html
what do you mean whats the point
that's a dang nice card and could win this round
see one thing bob knows is it is all about the promos.. cut a good one and you can be an class A heel and get in your opponents head.
cut a sucky one and no one listens..
Lew47 you got a roadrunner in your head now ..
you might as well lay down and die!
Pepe Depouw.. your a low down dirty varmint snake in the grass PENCIL NECK GEEK!

He is a hot third bagger nice card
need entries from pavi , urbanmonk, msw_sportscards, jaderock
Quit yer yappin, my intro music hasn't even finished yet. I see you guys out here flashin your autos, like oh look at me and this useless piece of cardboard with ink all over it. Blah, blah, blah, blah. Just another auto amongst many. As if it's a way of measuring your...... ego. It's time for a history lesson fellas. Not that I have much I can teach you about history seeing as most of yous guys have lived through the majority of it.
I'd like to tell you about a guy named Tommy Glaviano. Glaviano was signed as an amateur free agent by the St. Louis Cardinals in 1941. He played 4 seasons, beginning in 1949, for the Cardinals and 1 for the Phillies in 1953. His numbers aren't all that impressive, but in 1950 he batted .285, scored 92 runs, drove in 44 with 117 H, 11 HR, 29 doubles, and 2 triples. It was good enough to earn him a spot in Topps' inaugural and coolest card set which featured only 52 players.

I received this from woodman a couple days ago in a trade. It isn't the most valuable card in my collection, but it's the coolest.
obscurity gets credence points but so does any fm station playing Midnight Special!
enuff said about that
and.. just so you can dream a little dream tonight
this request is coming to you from msw_sportscards who might want a liitle oldie but goodie "entertainment " value for round 2..
and frankly my dear...I don't give a hootenanny!
round one show and tell closes at High Noon tomorrow!
Lol no its the corner of my bed and a piece of my blanket lol
Being out of town won't help me much today, but I grabbed a box of baseball before I left and perusing through the box I came across someone who's at least a world series mvp. I've always liked the look of Heritage as well.

3rd Baseman? Card? WTH? What kind of battle royal is this?
It came from a pack (as a redemption)! http://s6.photobucket.com/user/jaderock1/media/TCC%202009%20contest/KGrHqZpQFCpIuroNBBQvvG-vEI60_57_zpsc351f109.jpg.html

If the AROD doesn't count then, how about this one:
Ty Cobb, he played 1 game at 3B in his career! LOL...
http://s6.photobucket.com/user/jaderock1/media/TCC%202009%20contest/tiger_zpsf7f6c29f.jpg.html

where is the voting love
Grabbing a chair and blind-siding Chipster upside the head for choosing a baseball category that allows HOFers and autos. What were you thinking? Please allow me to refer you to this thread: http://www.tradingcardcentral.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=314588
Look at it. Study it. Don't let it happen again.
And Steve, after this fiasco, I insist that the next round be from a Sci Fi series or movie. Everyone has Star Wars cards from the 70s.....right?
Come giving me that sob story. Why I oughta..........
lol!
Hanging just outside of the ruckus in the middle of the ring, let everyone wear each other down before I strike
"Time for Jesse the Body to chime in McMahon! This was a simple category. Best 3rd baseman card. It's pretty obvious that it was to call for a George Brett. Obviously, a 1991 Donruss MVP George Brett would have obliterated anything here, but now I have to sit back and figure out which one of these 2nd tier players I am going to vote for!"
Yes beans our categories are simple but wait till my fire rounds in between lol
Fire rounds? Sounds like the fix is in fellas. He's playin us like chumps.
Mark i knew he was gonna win before we even got started lol. Hard to compete with what hes got out for show, not to mention the stuff he hides in the vault!
Marc*
"I don't think there is any use pulling out any dirty tricks yet. It will be no surprise that Steve runs away with this round..Rhonda Rousey style! Give the tap out already REF!!"
3 hours to vote
voting is OVER
aceecards with a table executed the texas tornado and knocked all the competitors out cold and pinned Jaderock in the center of the ring while urbanmonk watched helplessly outside the ring.
There was a massive finger pointing shout out between the two warriors and I do believe I heard urbanmonk say "just bring it you jabroni"!
msw_sportscards got to his wobbly feet first and in garbled English declared his intentions for the 2nd round.
It was then that mr McMahon's music hit and he did the power shuffle down to ringside and grabbed a mic.
He said, "By order of the authority, the second round stipulations have been altered to a degree. In order to be fair to all the superstars, the category so desired by msw_sportscards, has been altered in the tiniest fashion. It will Now be Best Vintage Non sport card."
"But.. Vintage can de defined as anything and so, we will allow any card manufactured before 1990 (25 year rule) ."
"Thank you and good luck" as a wry smile rolled across his lips while staring down msw_sportscards.
So that's it folks.
Round 2 category
Show us your best vintage non sport card!
25 years or older!
1990 to clarify!
None here
I still have this card. 1966 Topps Funny Ring Checklist. BV $300

Kind of a familiar tune

I could've swore that was..
http://s1235.photobucket.com/user/collectorshotcorner/media/Entertainment/028_zps3fd81ce2.jpg.html
Is that a certified auto?
I'm from "Detroit Rock City" so why not this one, got this from my older brother, glad I found it, I had a Gene Simmons spitting blood card, but cant find it! I have a older Stars Wars card, but the Kiss is cooler!

I cant believe the authority screwed up the dates. guess McMahon familys strong suit isn't math heh?
Lew can modify his entry if he so chooses.
I may modify mine.
However there will be an unscheduled lightning round after the 48 hour submission period ends for round 2!
LOL
So the card us 25 years old, but the ink isn't. Going into Matlock mode: I guess you can say that since the ink is now on the card, it is, in effect, part of the card. Therefore, the auto needs to be cut out so that the entry can satisfy the 25 year rule. After that, it really will be a celebrity cut or, rather, a cut celebrity.
Hmm, is that itl? I'm a liitle shocked
they got 48 hours paul.
other combatants are probably still icing down the head wounds I gave them with the table shots
Just letting ace run his mouth a little more before he gets Shatnered.
A Packer fan by birth even though I was born at the Lockbourne AFB, southeast of Columbus, Ohio. This was due to my father hailing from a small town in Wisconsin named Oconto. As kids we visited our grandparents and family religiously and in the mid-80s when Beer Can collecting became big, I was all in. Like many small communities in Wisconsin, they all seemed to brew their own beer. I have several cans, bottles and other memorabilia from the now defunct brewery.
Best of which I can provide this Vintage, circa 1978, post CARD.....
Just so that everyone knows:
"Ace, I AM your father!"
Here's my submission:
Only one of a few surviving Star Wars cards I have left.

Wow. How did that not get stuck to the back of your door when you were a kid?
Cuz he had a dream hed need it to make a bunch of grown men drop their jaw.
One of the few remaining I have from my childhood. Took me awhile to find this. I believe I am 6 cards set of having the whole set. From 1978:

the king..
ok submissions are closed.. looks like we wont get shattnered after all!
just kidding!
First of all, the 25 year rule is lame. By those standards, this piece of garbage from 86 counts as vintage
http://s1265.photobucket.com/user/ForLoveOfTheGame13/media/86GPKWoodyAlan_zps903c47ba.jpg.html
That just won't do so I thought I might try for some Monkee love,
http://s1265.photobucket.com/user/ForLoveOfTheGame13/media/67Monkees_zpsbaf8ec9e.jpg.html
but let's face it- Monkee love just ain't as good as a Kiss from Redwing.
But maybe the lovely Sandy Farina as Strawberry Fields from the 78 Lonely hearts Club set is
http://s1265.photobucket.com/user/ForLoveOfTheGame13/media/78SandyFarina_zps59103cbc.jpg.html
then Steve starts blabbing about his Ron Howard auto which should clearly get a DQ, but even if it doesn't all the ink on it can't stand up to George Takei
http://s1265.photobucket.com/user/ForLoveOfTheGame13/media/67LeafSulu_zpsd6804c43.jpg.html
or Spock
http://s1265.photobucket.com/user/ForLoveOfTheGame13/media/67LeafSpock_zps916a1f3a.jpg.html
Then people start talking about beer, Vader, and Elvis. I have to admit....those are some awesome submissions......but there is nothing that can stand up to the awesomeness of SHATNER, not even little Opie Cunningham with a pen, especially when Shatner's battling for his meds in a submission that I'm sure RGBII will appreciate if he's lurking around here somewhere.

Gotta go with Darth........... (que heavy mechanical breathing) HE IS MY FATHER!
And triple H's music hits and out walks the king of kings. He grabs a mic and interrupts the end of round two. He says it's time for a special interlude everyone who competes will be awarded one half point.
We want to see your best autographed item that is not a card and in a separate consecutive post your best auto compilation of a teams triplets or big three (thing lebron bosh and wade)
Considering this saturday at a wrestling event im taking a sign with darth vader on it that says "Sean i am your step father" to continue last shows sign "I <3 sean carr's mom". (East coast indy wrestler i CANT stand). So darth vader it is!
While I sincerely think my Capt. Kirk card is the superior piece, I too must vote for Darth....for 2 reasons:
1) I'm awe-stricken that someone actually resisted the urge to peel that bad boy off and stick it to something i.e. notebook, folder, bike, bedroom door(sorry mom and dad)
2) Sometimes one must set aside one's own ego for the common good and as Gandalf would say "Lil Opie Cunningham SHALL NOT PASS."

And the crowd goes silent. I don't know what we just witnessed here, Jerry Lawler, but it is nothing short of amazing. Well, that's right Cowboy Bob. Just when you thought the old man was out, he drops a bomb from the top rope. It'll be interesting to see how this plays out.
Oh yeah acee? Well weve got TWO WORDS FOR YA...
What?!?!? No Daisy Duke or Farrah Fawcett in this round??

I'm guessing any Cubs fan would vote for this...even if he had his own entry.
Back in te 50's when football wasn't two hand touch.

Can't go wrong with Mr. Cub or Johnny U!

lew47 1 pinfall 2 - 1/2 points for bonus = 2
jaderock "

Pavi39 could sneak up with tennis racket and take this whole thing
Round 4
Show us you best VINTAGE GU
Any sport
Relic should be at minimum 25 years old meaning the player should have played in 1990 or earlier!
Judges Note - Style should be awarded for AGE, Beauty and not so much on the player depicted!
Get to it!
I don't think they made game used cards before 1990....
If I read it correctly, the "card" dosent have to be vintage. The Player Relic has to be. So a Hank Aaron or a Mickey Mantle Relic will work no matter what year the card is
Well in that case, Mine will be this one, Steve Yzerman 1984 was his Rookie year, so Vintage player, maybe this GU from 84-90
http://s1294.photobucket.com/user/zetty5/media/Red%20Wings/scan0009_zps9c98a123.jpg.html
Got this in a big trade, and wanted to use it in the 4th Round, but a stick NFT or Sale as everyone ask me Its my first of Waynes Auto's I have! Sweet stuff
http://s1294.photobucket.com/user/zetty5/media/Traders/TheCup_zpsec7eac4a.jpg.html
Vintage Relic...then this should suffice....of course more 264s...
Beauty and Age here fellas.....
I think you guys are missing the point
the relic should be beautiful patchy even if you will
and age of player.. paul yzerman could still play he is so young.
I did say Mantle or Hank Aaron in the example
Stephanie! Did ya want a swatch for an old guy or a nice patch from someone who played before the 90s (ie the 80s)? Clarification please.
A couple of dueling Rogie's maybe? both /50:
or maybe back in the day when the Hockey gloves were different material than nowadays? /9 :
Or maybe back when Hockey sticks were made of wood and nothing else? /4 :
I could do Babe Ruth or Jackie Robinson, but let's go with the greatest NBA player of all time Michael Jordan who's paired up with "I'm Coming Home" "The King" LeBron James
Middle picture...or Jordan and Dr J

A pretty patch of an old dude....hopefully people vote by the judges rules.
for beauty and the beast
always thought this card was gorgeous
http://s1235.photobucket.com/user/collectorshotcorner/media/Baseball%20HOF%20Relics/017_zps928b47e3.jpg.html

http://s1235.photobucket.com/user/collectorshotcorner/media/Baseball%20HOF%20Relics/038_zps8a946b31.jpg.html
I love the patches and the story behind this

NICE. I like the Mantle/Musial/Yas triple! GIve you a $1 for it
That Brimsek card is way prettier than te Clemente. Why wouldn't you go with that?
plus the clemente just pops!
btw. after consulting with corporate Kane and vikki guerero the tiebreaker round has been determined
Lets hope it doesn't have to go there!
Very nice dual Horse silks....
I could have used that right about now....
How about a mantle jsy? Maybe a dimaggio bat? Nah? Ok then. A roger maris dual jsy/pants /25.
