16 Members. You pick your team. The 16 remaining teams will be picked by a draft held each month.
Fee is $25 a month. That buys $360-370 of hobby boxes each month for us to bust and pays for shipping & supplies.
You get all base, inserts, gu, autos, ect of your teams that is pulled from the boxes.
Duals go to the member who gets least amount of Autos & Gued from his owned team. (of course the member must own the team that is part of the dual 
)
Duals pt 2 - If a dual involves a owned team and a drafted team...the owned team gets the card.
Duals pt 3 - Tie - Serial Numbered cards are counted along with the autos & gued cards.
If you fail to pay by the DUE DATE, YOU will not participate in the break. Your team will be sold and your membership forfeited.
TRANSACTIONS: Within ONE week prior to our break or soon after the break occurs, our breaker will create transactions for every member involved. Please make sure you confirm/agree on YOUR transaction thread.
FUTURE MEMBERS: Please understand that there is a waiting list. If you would like to add your name to this list, then please contact me. When a spot is relinquished, the 1st person off of the list is notified. Anyone who can pay the monthly fee can join. We have ZERO restrictions. Of course, If you fail to pay by the due date...your membership is forfeited!

If you don't plan on continuing with this group - please LMK ASAP!
I take it SPx will definitely be one our boxes that we are breaking. What else??
Posted by: WestCoastSkinsFan Aug 16 2008, 11:31 PM
Man, I know we SAID SPX... but everything I've seen from it has been pretty awful, so far.
That being said, I'll still do it if everyone else wants to, just might want to think about it a little harder.
Posted by: flea Aug 17 2008, 05:46 AM
no fairs fair spx was put off & people want it
Posted by: Pejarox7620 Aug 17 2008, 05:48 AM
yeah i guess but if we want the best bang for out buck SPX looks horrible this year. But ill still break it i dont mind
Posted by: Rhody_Red_Pats Aug 17 2008, 11:04 AM
Yeah, we should do an SPX, but maybe not more than one box if its not too good this year. Maybe more Threads would give us the best bang for the buck.
Posted by: flea Aug 17 2008, 11:07 AM
couldn't care less about bang for your buck to be honest LOL
Posted by: Eliptic Aug 17 2008, 07:29 PM
SPX is good with me.
Bowman Sterling is scheduled to be out August 28th:
224.99
EVERY 6-BOX PACK CONTAINS GUARANTEED VALUE!

Posted by: tileman Aug 17 2008, 08:15 PM
as far as you know, is this upcoming break full or are there a spot or two open?
Posted by: Avaholicforever Aug 17 2008, 08:49 PM
I'm in, I would enjoy seeing some SPX and Threads, other than that I'm up for anything.
-Bill
Posted by: picipat Aug 17 2008, 09:53 PM
I'm in this month. I'd like to do SPx but I have to agree that it looks iffy at best. I'm cool with whatever though. I love Absolute and Bowman Sterling as well. Lets do it boys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Posted by: mjda Aug 17 2008, 10:01 PM
I'm pretty sure it'll be all filled up. They even have a waiting list. You might want to request that you be added to it. Last I knew there were like a dozen or more people on the list already, but some are only waiting on certain teams.
Posted by: WestCoastSkinsFan Aug 18 2008, 12:20 AM
Ugh, no Sterling please. Select looks like a good value this year, and I always love Absolute!
Posted by: picipat Aug 18 2008, 12:34 AM
I think Sterling looks decent. So does Absolute. I'll tell you what looks great for October's break and that is Gridiron Gear. I can't wait for that stuff again this year.
Posted by: Pejarox7620 Aug 18 2008, 12:41 AM
Absolute and Select sounds great!
Posted by: Kiansdad Aug 18 2008, 04:30 AM
SPX is grandfatered in from last month (but it does looks like they found what everybody didnt like about last year,winning materials parallels, and then increased that).
I like Absolute and Topps Chrome too.
Posted by: thesobons Aug 18 2008, 11:29 AM
I agree let's do one box of SPX and then look at Absolute, Select, Classics, Threads. Upper Deck has sevral hits in those boxes too..??
Posted by: WestCoastSkinsFan Aug 20 2008, 12:09 AM
An early thought for breaks...
08 SPX, $153 (7 GU, 2 autos, 1 auto/GU)
08 Score Select, $65 (3 autos)
08 Donruss Threads, $75 (4 autos/GUs)
08 Upper Deck, $64 (3 GU, 1 auto)
Posted by: thesobons Aug 20 2008, 12:11 AM
I like that Sam!
Posted by: Hlrazr Aug 20 2008, 07:42 AM
08 SPX, $153 (7 GU, 2 autos, 1 auto/GU)
08 Score Select, $65 (3 autos)
08 Donruss Threads, $75 (4 autos/GUs)
08 Upper Deck, $64 (3 GU, 1 auto)
I'd vote for that!!
Posted by: monsta Aug 20 2008, 07:57 AM
Me 2!

Let us know if you like this one guys!
Posted by: Kiansdad Aug 20 2008, 06:03 PM
That box selection looks good to me!
Posted by: Pejarox7620 Aug 20 2008, 06:06 PM
No Absolute? How much is Absolute?
Posted by: WestCoastSkinsFan Aug 20 2008, 06:30 PM
I think it's $123. I'd like to add it too, but I'd really hesitate to have both that AND SPX in the same break. It really limits the amount of boxes.
Posted by: echunks Aug 20 2008, 08:14 PM
Does anyone know how Topps Chrome looks this year? Seemed to do really well last year.
Posted by: thesobons Aug 20 2008, 08:31 PM
Rareluck open 10 packs and got an Auto and Chris Johnson RC & Refractor among others...look good.
We try to add in a Chrome or some of the others in the next few months.
Posted by: picipat Aug 20 2008, 09:44 PM
I like the box selection that Sam came up with. But I wouldn't mind squeezing Absolute in sometime. I could really care less about Topps Chrome but I'm cool with whatever.
Posted by: cbluem Aug 20 2008, 09:44 PM
I personally don't like the selections.
SPx looks like Crap(I understand everyone wants to try it, but ABSOLUTE is always good)
Select is just a cheap looking product every year
Threads was good to us
UD-would rather get rid of this and Select to do Absolute
Posted by: cbluem Aug 20 2008, 09:49 PM
It seems that everyone wants to bust those.
Just throwing these two out there:
1)
2 boxes of Absolute-245
1 box of either Threads or Select-65-75
Plus a couple packs of Sterling with what ever was left
That gives us three possible new products without having to get a full box of Sterling
2)
SPx-153
Absolute-123
Threads or Select-65-75
Posted by: WestCoastSkinsFan Aug 20 2008, 10:16 PM
cbluem - Frankly, I agree on SPX. I don't like it. But others do, so it's something we should work in if the majority like it. I'd rather do Absolute and upgrade something else, myself.
Select, on the other hand, I disagree on. I actually love the look of the product, but the former single auto in a box made it hard to spread the love. 3 autos, and I'm in.
Posted by: Pejarox7620 Aug 21 2008, 03:07 AM
i agreed completely with Westcoast, I dont like Spx this year...its seems like its rediculously hard to hit a good rookie and the single patches and jerseys make it sorta a filler product...Id say we can do one because everyone wants it, i like Blues #2 because we have absolute...and Select and threads are nice. The only problem i have with topps chrome is that it only has 1 auto per box so its not very good for a group break....
Posted by: Eliptic Aug 21 2008, 06:33 PM
....not a fan of SPx this year either.
Posted by: Eliptic Aug 21 2008, 07:46 PM
Who's breaking this month?
Posted by: monsta Aug 21 2008, 09:44 PM
I guess the best thing for us this month is a poll to vote on.
I know some of you did want to break SPx but most seemed to be turned off after seeing it's 1000000000 parallels.
Not sure.
Any volunteers??
Must be on ustream!!
Posted by: thesobons Aug 22 2008, 04:47 PM
Let's Vote!
I still like SPX, some nice Rodgers and Packer stuff
Posted by: road_runner_1964 Aug 22 2008, 05:34 PM
-Bill
We know I want some SPx, how about all SPx?
Threads and Absolute are also good with me.
Posted by: WestCoastSkinsFan Aug 22 2008, 05:42 PM
If pushed, I'd say no on SPX, I just don't like it. But if it's going to irk people, I'm okay with it.
Posted by: road_runner_1964 Aug 22 2008, 07:19 PM
Sam,
I understand, but that is my primary PC focus.
Bob
Posted by: picipat Aug 22 2008, 09:07 PM
Lets vote. Monsta, are you going to put a poll together. Also, I'd be willing to do the break with my new IMac if people want me to. ;-)
Posted by: monsta Aug 22 2008, 11:50 PM
If you can do it on ustream then woohoo we have a breaker!
Also - Diamondcards has asked me if we would think about purchasing our boxes from him this month. After we do figure out what we are breaking - I'll send him a message.
I'll try and get a poll up tomorrow guys.
Posted by: picipat Aug 22 2008, 11:58 PM
Oh I can do it on Ustream.
Posted by: monsta Aug 23 2008, 12:48 AM
Awesome.
We have our breaker for this month.
Only the boxes and draft remain....
How about I go ahead and do a random.org draft order. Since this is our 15th month running - after all members involved are entered - I will click randomize 15 times.
Back in a moment with the order....
Posted by: monsta Aug 23 2008, 12:53 AM
All 16 names have been entered into the list generator at random.org.
I will now proceed to click randomize 15 times.
Good luck all.
Posted by: monsta Aug 23 2008, 12:53 AM
Congrats to Robert (thesobons)!! You have the 1st pick.

Posted by: flea Aug 23 2008, 05:14 AM
14 ugh
Posted by: Eliptic Aug 23 2008, 05:53 AM
Smack dab in the middle.
Posted by: Kiansdad Aug 23 2008, 07:15 AM
Top 5 works for me!
Hopefully my luck will be more like the month before last (double Dorsey redemptions) and less like last month (Brandon Flowers auto was it I think).
Posted by: Pejarox7620 Aug 23 2008, 08:16 AM
Monsta: Do u mind me switching teams again? I think this will be my final team and it makes the most sense to me to keep this team lol...but is it ok if i take the 49ers as my owned team...im probably not changing anymore after this 
Posted by: road_runner_1964 Aug 23 2008, 08:24 AM
The nice thing about being last is I don't have to worry about drafting....
Posted by: picipat Aug 23 2008, 01:11 PM
I like lucky #7!
Posted by: thesobons Aug 23 2008, 02:32 PM
WOOOOO!!!
Except I have yet to get an good hit at #1
Posted by: picipat Aug 23 2008, 06:10 PM
So what are we breaking? Although I agreed with SPx initially I'm now questioning that decision. It doesn't look like a good product. If everyone wants it though I won't protest.
Posted by: thesobons Aug 24 2008, 12:00 AM
I think monsta will put up a poll soon, let's vote it out!
Posted by: road_runner_1964 Aug 25 2008, 08:21 PM
How is the poll coming? I am sure there is SPx in every choice....
Posted by: cbluem Aug 25 2008, 08:45 PM
Better not be. I have always loved SPx and been one of its biggest supporters, but I haven't seen one good box yet. Only a couple of good hits. I guess having a hit in every pack has really hurt them unlike other products
Posted by: road_runner_1964 Aug 25 2008, 09:02 PM
Yea, unfortunately I have to agree with you. I haven't been overly impressed and this years class is so so...
Posted by: thesobons Aug 25 2008, 09:22 PM
I will go either way, because I bought this today!

That is phenomenal Robert. I thought about picking him up as well, but now you saved me....
Posted by: monsta Aug 25 2008, 10:13 PM
Awesome addition Robert!
Posted by: thesobons Aug 25 2008, 10:52 PM
Thanks Guys! I also put in the redemption for #'d/599, if I get a 264, I'll let you know Bob!
Poll?
Posted by: Eliptic Aug 26 2008, 07:35 PM
Are we all set with Patrick as this months breaker? I need to send my money order out soon so that it gets there by the 1st.
Posted by: road_runner_1964 Aug 26 2008, 09:40 PM
Poll?
Sweet....we can only hope...
Posted by: monsta Aug 26 2008, 09:46 PM
I promise I'll do a poll tonight guys.
Yes he will be the breaker.
Posted by: picipat Aug 26 2008, 09:59 PM
Yeah everyone can start sending me their $. My paypal addy is picipat@msn.com
Posted by: monsta Aug 26 2008, 10:10 PM
Option 1
2008 Spx - $147
2008 Chrome $68
2008 Absolute $123
2007 Artifacts or whatever around that price - $48
$386
Option 2
2008 Spx - $147
2008 Icons - $80
$2008 Absolute - $123
$350 + 20 or so in packs
Option 3
2008 Absolute x2 - $246
2008 Threads - $74
$320 – something around 40 - 50
Option 4
2008 Spx - $147
2008 Absolute - $123
2008 Threads - $74
$344 + 20 or so in packs?
Option 5
2008 Spx - $147
2008 Select - 65
2008 Threads - $74
2008 UD - $63
$349 + 20 or so in packs??
Posted by: WestCoastSkinsFan Aug 26 2008, 10:33 PM
With these options, are you factoring in any discounts from the various folks we use? With a little discount action, we might be able to get a cheapie box like 06 Flair Showcase or something like that.
Posted by: monsta Aug 26 2008, 10:40 PM
No. These are just the basic prices from blowout cards
Posted by: Rhody_Red_Pats Aug 26 2008, 10:59 PM
From the options above, I like #4 best. Maybe the remainder can be spent on a loose pack of Absolute
Posted by: thesobons Aug 26 2008, 11:05 PM
Doesn't Icon have non-football Autos?
2 Letterman (Non-Auto) per box (Immortal Letterman and Movie letlerman)
2 Memorabilia and 1 Auto per box
1 #'d legend or Movie Icon in every box
How would we deal with those? I guess we could just have a random drawing for them if we pull.
Complete Favre Jets letterman spelling out Broadway Brett!!
Wow! JK
Posted by: road_runner_1964 Aug 26 2008, 11:13 PM
I will withhold voting until most are cast, need to ensure the vote is swayed to an option with SPx....
Posted by: thesobons Aug 26 2008, 11:18 PM
I like 5, with Icons instead of UD, uses up the $20.
Otherwise #2
Posted by: WestCoastSkinsFan Aug 26 2008, 11:21 PM
I say option #5 and try to fit in a cheapie box like 07 DPP, or maybe 05 Longevity.
Posted by: road_runner_1964 Aug 26 2008, 11:39 PM
Okay, I lied..I will vote now....
I like five also.
Posted by: monsta Aug 26 2008, 11:46 PM
I like #3 the best.
Sorry Bob. 
Posted by: picipat Aug 26 2008, 11:52 PM
OOOOOOOOOO......Tough decision.
Posted by: flea Aug 27 2008, 04:58 AM
5
Posted by: echunks Aug 27 2008, 05:19 AM
I vote for #3
Posted by: cbluem Aug 27 2008, 09:38 AM
I like 3 the best but mainly because it is the only one WITHOUT SPx. With the loose packs I would like to see Bowman Sterling since I am pretty sure we won't be getting a box this year.
Posted by: Kiansdad Aug 27 2008, 10:12 AM
With the choices as-is.. I would go with #3.
But I wouldnt mind #5 with Topps Chrome in place of UD either.
Posted by: picipat Aug 27 2008, 10:21 AM
I have to agree with Blue. I pick 3 with the extra money going towards packs of Sterling. Hell I might just throw in the extra money and buy a whole box.
Posted by: thesobons Aug 27 2008, 01:25 PM
2008 Spx - $147
2008 Chrome $68
2008 Absolute $123
2007 Artifacts or whatever around that price - $48
$386
Option 2
2008 Spx - $147
2008 Icons - $80
$2008 Absolute - $123
$350 + 20 or so in packs
Option 3
2008 Absolute x2 - $246
2008 Threads - $74
$320 – something around 40 - 50
Option 4
2008 Spx - $147
2008 Absolute - $123
2008 Threads - $74
$344 + 20 or so in packs?
Option 5
2008 Spx - $147
2008 Select - 65
2008 Threads - $74
2008 UD - $63
$349 + 20 or so in packs??
I'll change my vote to 5.
So with 10 votes in here is the tally so far.
3 - 5 votes
4 - 1 vote
5 - 4 votes
Too close to call, need more votes guys!
Posted by: thesobons Aug 27 2008, 01:26 PM

Posted by: Avaholicforever Aug 27 2008, 08:06 PM
Payment was just sent to Patrick....
I vote for option 3. I would prefer option 4 as it has both Absolute and Spx, but it has no chance now.
Sorry Bob
-Bill
Posted by: Pejarox7620 Aug 28 2008, 05:35 AM
I would pick #4 also since it has both but i like option #3... Payment sent!
Posted by: picipat Aug 28 2008, 09:30 AM
Payment Received by:
thesobons
Pejarox
Road Runner
Kiansdad
Avaholic
EChunks
And of course I've paid.
Thanks to those guys who sent a little extra to cover the paypal fees. That's more money to spend on products. Keep the payments coming guys.
Posted by: picipat Aug 28 2008, 09:32 AM
Also, it looks like #3 is going to win. So now we need to decide what I'm going to spend the extra funds on. I'm a big fan of purchasing packs of Sterling but I guess we could look at some other options. What would you guys like?
Posted by: thesobons Aug 28 2008, 10:46 AM
Sorry Bob - Mr 264...
I'll split a box of SPX with you and/or 2 others in the next couple weeks.
LMK
Robert
Posted by: monsta Aug 28 2008, 01:13 PM
Sorry Bob! We still have a long year until 09 products are released. I'm sure SPx will come up again.
Posted by: monsta Aug 28 2008, 01:45 PM
Since 3 is the winner - what should we get to go with it??
Posted by: monsta Aug 28 2008, 02:12 PM
Just heard back from diamondcards.....it would be about $20 cheaper to order from him. $316 for the 3 hobby boxes. That gives us at most $60 to spend on another box or packs.
Posted by: Kiansdad Aug 28 2008, 02:32 PM
Topps Chrome?
Posted by: thesobons Aug 28 2008, 03:20 PM
Topps Chrome would be good since so few cards in the 2 Absolute, wouldn't overwhelm the shipper.
Or
I like even better!
SCORE SELECT (3 Autos) $65 at Blowout, Diamondcards?
If we go this route I'll kick in some extra $5-10.
Sterling is $225 a box of 6 packs 38-40 a pack (1 Auto)
Posted by: WestCoastSkinsFan Aug 28 2008, 03:28 PM
#3 with Score Select sounds pretty nice for me!

I'll kick in a few extra bucks when I pay tonight
Posted by: cbluem Aug 28 2008, 05:53 PM
I would still rather a pack of Sterling and maybe some loose packs of Select or something
Posted by: thesobons Aug 28 2008, 06:07 PM
Honestly - I've never been a fan of Sterling, but I'm flexable.
How about a few packs of SPX
Does Diamondcards only sell boxes? If so, does Patrick have a local reasonably priced card show to pick up a few packs??
Posted by: flea Aug 28 2008, 06:51 PM
sorry to do this so close to the pay deadlne, but, I have to pull out this month. just don't have the money
Posted by: cbluem Aug 28 2008, 06:53 PM
How about 1 pack of Sterling and 1 pack of SPx
Posted by: picipat Aug 28 2008, 07:53 PM
Uh oh. I smell Kiansdad picking up the Bears since Flea is dropping out. My vote would be for an entire box of something if we can afford it versus 1 pack here and 1 pack there. I would vote Score Select over Topps Chrome.

If we aren't going to break any boxes of SPx, at least make the packs SPx......pleeeeeeez....
Posted by: Kiansdad Aug 28 2008, 08:00 PM
My first choice would be flea being in.. I would cover his payment, but I dont really have the extra $$ right now either.
But if he is out, I would rather change to the Bears then see them go to someone else. Of course, someone would steal the Chiefs then.. and when flea came back I would have to pick another team.
Posted by: Eliptic Aug 28 2008, 08:31 PM
I have to echo Patricks opinion of picking up a full box vs a pack here and there.
Posted by: cbluem Aug 28 2008, 09:39 PM
I think the bears should be held for flea until next month when he returns
Posted by: thesobons Aug 28 2008, 09:48 PM
I understand that Flea is still in and paid.
Posted by: picipat Aug 28 2008, 10:59 PM
That is correct. I have confirmed that I have received an anominous payment for Flea. He is still in for the month of August.
Posted by: monsta Aug 29 2008, 12:50 AM
Nice job Mr. Anominous .
Posted by: monsta Aug 29 2008, 12:52 AM
Diamondcards has confirmed the price of Score Select.
We're looking at $383 of the $400 going towards hobby boxes. If anyone can put in an extra 1 or 2 dollars please do so.
Patrick - when you get a chance, contact diamondcards to get his paypal addy and schedule payment. (The 1st or 2nd of September)
Posted by: thesobons Aug 29 2008, 01:11 AM
I'll send an extra 10!

I am going to have to do one of two things this month
1) Stay in and pay later due to us evacuating from the hurricane. Really need to hold onto every penny until this passes through. I should be able to pay by next Friday no matter what.
2) Drop out of this month(really don't want to do this, but it will have to be the group's choice)
Posted by: thesobons Aug 30 2008, 05:37 PM
Blue your covered!
Stay safe!
Patrick - Payment coming later today!

Patrick - Payment coming later today!
You do know that you already have a Saint-hood for all that you do on this site, right. I guess since I'm a Saints fan, it is only fitting.
But really thanks a lot. I will get you back ASAP. At least the rest of the group will not be affected by the storm.
I will be off and on until later tonight, so before i leave i will make my pick....one way or another.

Here is the tracking number for our boxes with UPS:

I'm hoping to get them by the end of the week. If that happens we could look at a weekend break or a break at the beginning of next week.

Not yet. I sent another PM to Diamondcards to get an idea of when UPS said the package would be delivered. I'll post something up when I hear from him.
On another note, what does everyone think about a possible Sunday break or a break at the beginning of next week? What times work for everyone?

Scratch the last post. I just heard from Diamondcards and delivery is not going to happen until the 9th. That lines up with what UPS says as well. So how does a break at the end of next week sound?
Posted by: Eliptic Sep 4 2008, 07:38 PM
Late next weeks is fine by me. Ill have a hectic work schedule so I probably wont make it to the break anyway
Posted by: Rhody_Red_Pats Sep 4 2008, 09:10 PM
I know for certain that I wouldn't be able to make it if it's on Thursday. Friday and the weekend are open for me, for now.
Posted by: picipat Sep 5 2008, 12:20 AM
I think next Friday or Saturday would be best for me.
Posted by: monsta Sep 5 2008, 02:22 PM
FYI - Robert (thesobons) will be taking this club over for the next few months. I had planned on dropping out completely but I will remain on with the Titans as my owned team.
Posted by: flea Sep 5 2008, 04:18 PM
too much on mate?
Posted by: picipat Sep 5 2008, 05:22 PM
WHAT???????
Why would you drop out?
Posted by: WestCoastSkinsFan Sep 5 2008, 09:35 PM
Holy cow, Monsta. Everything all right, my man?
Posted by: road_runner_1964 Sep 6 2008, 06:51 PM
Why would you drop out?
Jerms is just going through some tough times, he will be around but not as frequent for a little while. The rest of us can help him out and take over the awesome job he has done around here, until he gets back.
Posted by: broscards Sep 6 2008, 07:14 PM
I hope to be at UT vs UAB this coming saturday, so anyday but then is good with me!
Good Luck Jerms, we will keep the flame going until you get back man.
Posted by: WestCoastSkinsFan Sep 6 2008, 07:21 PM
Just let me know what I can do to help.
Posted by: picipat Sep 6 2008, 09:02 PM
Ditto this!
Posted by: picipat Sep 6 2008, 09:19 PM
Look what I got today guys.
For some reason Diamondcards sent this box seperate from the other 3. If we can get something put together quick with the other memebers I could break it tomorrow sometime.
Posted by: cbluem Sep 6 2008, 09:52 PM
I 'm down. lmk
Posted by: cbluem Sep 6 2008, 09:54 PM
Jeremy if you need anything let us know. I'm sure any one of us would be more than happy to do anything we can to help you out
Posted by: monsta Sep 6 2008, 11:11 PM
Thanks guys. I appreciate the willingness to help me out.
I should have a better explanation in the coming weeks about what exactly is going on with me.
Posted by: picipat Sep 7 2008, 09:21 AM
No takers for a break today? WOW!!!!! I can understand since it is the kickoff weekend for the NFL.
Posted by: Kiansdad Sep 7 2008, 09:25 AM
Im down for a break today.. up until about 7:30 pm et.. then Im in the zone for the big game!
Bear Down!
Posted by: cbluem Sep 7 2008, 10:30 AM
Yes, today. Patrick. just PM everyone and ask them to come reply if they want to or not. We could do it right at 6 PM CST between games
Posted by: WestCoastSkinsFan Sep 7 2008, 11:39 AM
I'm up for a single box break. Just let me know when.
Posted by: picipat Sep 7 2008, 01:06 PM
I don't think we'll be able to do something today. It seems that everyone can do it around 4pm PST but me (of course that is the way it would work). 
I can do something later like 10:30pm EST or 11pm EST but that would be it. What do you all think of that?
Posted by: WestCoastSkinsFan Sep 7 2008, 01:15 PM
Late works just fine for me!
Posted by: Kiansdad Sep 7 2008, 02:23 PM
That would be at the end of the Bears game.. not likely I could make that.
Posted by: cbluem Sep 7 2008, 03:12 PM
i'll be there
Posted by: thesobons Sep 7 2008, 05:46 PM
I'm up for late!
Posted by: picipat Sep 7 2008, 08:08 PM
I'm going to hold off breaking tonight because I haven't gotten enough of a response from members. I can break tomorrow night or we can wait until the middle of the week. If everyone can post what time works for them I will be as accomodating as possible.
Posted by: cbluem Sep 7 2008, 09:32 PM
tomorrow night at 9 pm CST works best for me tomorrow
Posted by: Eliptic Sep 8 2008, 10:52 AM
Im down for breaking tonight.
Posted by: Kiansdad Sep 8 2008, 03:43 PM
I could go for a break tonight.. as long as its not too late (like after 11:00 pm et).
Posted by: Rhody_Red_Pats Sep 8 2008, 05:52 PM
I'll be around if we break tonight
Posted by: Hlrazr Sep 8 2008, 06:49 PM

Posted by: picipat Sep 8 2008, 08:36 PM
I'm in the house. I could break at about 8pm PST, 9pm MST, 10pm CST, & 11pm EST. Oh 2pm Hawaii time. Lets do it.
Posted by: picipat Sep 8 2008, 08:45 PM
I shot everyone a PM about the break tonight. See ya all in a hour and 15 minutes.
Posted by: WestCoastSkinsFan Sep 8 2008, 08:47 PM
I'll be here! Any news on the rest of the boxes, btw?
Posted by: picipat Sep 8 2008, 08:54 PM
They are scheduled for delivery on Wednesday.

We're ready to break in 7 minutes. Jump over now.
Posted by: picipat Sep 8 2008, 10:32 PM
I'll get pics posted up as soon as I can.
Posted by: road_runner_1964 Sep 8 2008, 10:42 PM
I got to watch, but still have trouble with sign in. I guess I need to take some time to figure that out...
Posted by: thesobons Sep 8 2008, 11:10 PM
Any good hits? Other than Cbluems
Posted by: picipat Sep 9 2008, 01:01 PM
Here is what we got out of box 1. All of the rookies, inserts, and autos.
Posted by: picipat Sep 9 2008, 01:03 PM
Now we just need to figure out a time to break the remaining 3 boxes. What works for everyone? They are scheduled for delivery tomorrow.
Posted by: Eliptic Sep 9 2008, 02:09 PM
whenevers fine for me
Posted by: thesobons Sep 9 2008, 03:08 PM
Thanks for the Scans Patrick!
Nice a Flynn AP! What is it numbered? #'d/32?
Anytime is fine with me! Anyone else having trouble with ustream? Kept breaking up...
Posted by: Avaholicforever Sep 9 2008, 03:21 PM

Just throwing this out there.....
I was having problems recently with ustream, and my default browser is Firefox. On a hunch, I tried ustream on Internet Explorer, and it has been relatively smooth for me.
I'm fine with anytime 9PM EST or later Patrick
-Bill
Posted by: Kiansdad Sep 9 2008, 04:12 PM
Anytime between 8 - 11 pm et works for me.

It is numbered /32. I think Avaholic might be onto something. Everything went pretty smooth last night on my end and I use internet explorer. I froze up once just briefly but there were no delays (I was watching the broadcast like you all as I broke).
Posted by: WestCoastSkinsFan Sep 9 2008, 05:33 PM
I actually use Firefox with no issues on UStream at all.
Posted by: road_runner_1964 Sep 9 2008, 05:45 PM
I have tried Ustream on both and still have issues....must be me...
Posted by: cbluem Sep 9 2008, 06:22 PM
I think it is USTREAM. I had problems every once and a while with Explorer and at first with Firefox, but no mess ups lately.
Posted by: picipat Sep 9 2008, 06:30 PM
I've got a surprise coming up. Stay tuned.
Posted by: picipat Sep 9 2008, 06:33 PM
Look what I got today. I'm game for breakin tonight or tomorrow evening. I'll PM everyone and find out what they want to do.
Posted by: Kiansdad Sep 9 2008, 06:36 PM
Let break tonight (as long as its not too late.. lol)!
Posted by: picipat Sep 9 2008, 06:43 PM
PM sent to all members about when we can break.
Posted by: picipat Sep 9 2008, 06:44 PM
I'm thinking 10 or 10:30pm EST. My Wife has my laptop so it will depend on when she gets home. She should be home by 10pm EST.
Posted by: thesobons Sep 9 2008, 06:46 PM
Anytime for me!
I'll be in the office working...
Posted by: road_runner_1964 Sep 9 2008, 07:10 PM
Break 'em let me know what time.
Posted by: WestCoastSkinsFan Sep 9 2008, 07:16 PM
Tooooooniiiiiiight!
Posted by: road_runner_1964 Sep 9 2008, 07:22 PM
I may have to be a Ustream Id, but I will be watching. About time for some DMAC mojo....
Posted by: picipat Sep 9 2008, 07:24 PM
Okay. I've gotten enough feedback that we will break the rest of the boxes tonight. Lets plan on 10:30pm EST. I'll post a link to the break about 30 minutes prior to breaking. See you all in a couple of hours.
Posted by: picipat Sep 9 2008, 07:25 PM
Can someone edit the front topic so it states we will be breaking at 10:30pm EST.
Posted by: Rhody_Red_Pats Sep 9 2008, 07:40 PM
sweet... can't wait.
Posted by: Eliptic Sep 9 2008, 07:45 PM
Nice. Ill be there.
Posted by: cbluem Sep 9 2008, 08:43 PM
Glad I happened to check the site before I went to bed. I would have been VERY MAD to miss my F Jones/E Smith dual auto patch 1/1.
Posted by: road_runner_1964 Sep 9 2008, 08:49 PM
Alright blue...stop being greedy.....
Posted by: cbluem Sep 9 2008, 08:57 PM
Greedy??? Me????
I don't know what you are talking about 
Posted by: cbluem Sep 9 2008, 08:59 PM
Honestly I would be just as happy to just see a really GREAT HIT. Even though we have had some awesome hits, We are still yet to hit that AMAZING ONCE IN A LIFETIME HIT.
I have seen some boxes broken and said why can't we, when we break multiple boxes, get a hit like that. Well, I think tonight is that night 
Posted by: Kiansdad Sep 9 2008, 09:01 PM
I thought the double Dorsey redemptions was pretty good.
But I wouldnt mind seeing something like that (or even better) again.
Posted by: road_runner_1964 Sep 9 2008, 09:12 PM
But I wouldnt mind seeing something like that (or even better) again.
I agree, that was awesome...how about a double DMAC....
Posted by: road_runner_1964 Sep 9 2008, 09:13 PM
Hey Robert...did you see my newest acquisition today? It is in my 264 thread....I had to hit the bin....
Posted by: cbluem Sep 9 2008, 09:13 PM
I never said some good breaks. We have had some nice hits.
But Seriously, name one D-Lineman that you would say was a once in a lifetime hit
Posted by: Kiansdad Sep 9 2008, 09:21 PM

Sorry but I couldn't get TCC to work.
Posted by: picipat Sep 9 2008, 09:34 PM
I'm ready to break if everyone wants to jump over.
Posted by: Rhody_Red_Pats Sep 9 2008, 09:39 PM

How'd we do??
Posted by: road_runner_1964 Sep 10 2008, 08:56 AM
Congrats to all....
Thanks, Robert. Can't wait to get in hand or if Patrick can post the scans.
Posted by: picipat Sep 10 2008, 10:14 AM
Lets first start with the all the rookies we pulled from Absolute and Threads and Gridiron Kings inserts.
The Housh and the MJD are numbered /100
Posted by: picipat Sep 10 2008, 10:15 AM
Now the hits from Threads. You'll like this one Flea.
Posted by: picipat Sep 10 2008, 10:15 AM
Now the hits from Absolute.
Posted by: picipat Sep 10 2008, 10:16 AM
Thats it folks. No more hits to see. 
Posted by: picipat Sep 10 2008, 10:17 AM
Oh wait I forgot this one little hit. Road Runner is going to like this one.

I'm just stoked I got 2 hits with the Henne Auto and the Triple JSY Relics card. 
Posted by: road_runner_1964 Sep 10 2008, 10:22 AM
Good one Patrick...
Posted by: thesobons Sep 10 2008, 10:31 AM
Thanks for the Scans Patrick!
Only need the Rodgers & Grant base, none of the other base.
Thanks for Breaking!
Great Pull Mr. 264!!
Posted by: picipat Sep 10 2008, 11:07 AM
Thanks for the opportunity to break. I love doing it. If you need help breaking in the future Robert lmk.
I'm going to get everything ready to send by Saturday. I'll post up transactions at that point.
And maybe we ought to nominate this break as a break of the week. Can't beat a letterman and a McFadden auto.
Posted by: road_runner_1964 Sep 10 2008, 11:20 AM
Only need the Rodgers & Grant base, none of the other base.

Great Pull Mr. 264!!
Thanks, Robert. I needed that to pay for my newly acquired Mr. Rodgers....
Now I can stop repeating my request for you to check all of yours....
Posted by: road_runner_1964 Sep 10 2008, 12:15 PM
Nice job on the break Patrick...
Posted by: Kiansdad Sep 10 2008, 12:51 PM

Posted by: 10alex10 Sep 12 2008, 02:30 PM

Posted by: Kiansdad Sep 12 2008, 02:41 PM
No, not until the Lions win a playoff game!
jk.. I know someone has the "official waiting list".. I have no idea who that is though.
Posted by: 10alex10 Sep 12 2008, 09:15 PM

Getting things ready to ship. Will post transactions today.
Posted by: thesobons Sep 13 2008, 09:22 PM
I will be taking over the official waiting list, when I get it from Jeremy.
I will also start a topic for the October break later this weekend, so start thinking what to break.
Also if anyone is NOT in for October PM as soon as possible.
Robert
Posted by: WestCoastSkinsFan Sep 14 2008, 01:59 AM
Before I forget, are there any duties I can help take over? Like I said before, anything I can do to help!
Posted by: picipat Sep 15 2008, 10:13 AM
All transactions posted. Please agree to them. Everything is going out today except for Eliptic and Cbluem unless I can get your addys ASAP.
Posted by: road_runner_1964 Sep 15 2008, 10:51 AM
