Soooooooo.......just tying up some loose threads. I had promised a free break for members of my 2008 Heritage Baseball 5 box break which didn't go quite as smoothly as had been planned. Perhaps 5 boxes were too many. Perhaps I was just too inexperienced. Whatever the reason, I am here to make good on my promise.
I am hosting a 2011 Topps A&G Break. If you were involved in the previously mentioned break, you are entitled to choose 1 team/ slot. In other words, if you had filled 1 spot in the Heritage break, you will get 1 team. If you filled 2 spots in the Heritage break, you will get 2 teams in the A&G break, etc. Please contact me for a list of available teams since this seems to be changing daily.

In addition, I am offering one lucky winner a free spot in this break.

Simply answer the following trivia question:

Who was the last Cardinals pitcher to throw a no-hitter?

Good Luck!

I don't remember that break going quite as bad as you make it sound Marc....

"Baseball players will take anything. If you had a pill that would guarantee a pitcher 20 wins but might take five years off his life, he'd take it" MLB pitcher Jim Bouton about drug use in the Major Leagues... quoted in 1969.

I vow to no longer purchase any product that features sticker autographs...
If your user name is this color I'm afraid I'll have to pass on any proposed transactions at this time.

Not so much the break as the shipping. The logistics of getting everything shipped in a timely manner was a nightmare. Not to mention, having to deal with someone out of the country who allegedly didn't receive their package and having no way to check on it since it's nearly impossible to track packages that travel out of the country. In light of recent events, I'm led to believe I got scammed on that one.
