I actually prefer the original lineup better just because I really like 07 Ultimate and 07 Black and am not a huge fan of Co-signers or EEE. However, I would still give it a go either way to try it out.

Posted by: srsly_chris Jun 22 2011, 03:37 PM

lineup is posted on first thread.

Posted by: NYStateOfMind1976 Jun 22 2011, 09:31 PM

I actually like that new lineup alot. Very good in my book. Nice mix.

Posted by: srsly_chris Jun 24 2011, 03:06 PM

going to pm the current members to see if they're still interested.

Posted by: NYStateOfMind1976 Jun 24 2011, 09:59 PM

Fingers crossed.

Posted by: 5pujols5 Jun 27 2011, 06:29 PM

I am still in with the Cardinals please. Sure hope this gets filled! We need a good baseball break on here!!!

I could not agree more!!!

Posted by: srsly_chris Jun 29 2011, 06:11 PM

May close this thread due to a few people not being able to make it, and change the rules a bit.. I understand we all PC teams.. but many people will not join due to lack of good teams left..

It may be best and fun for all of us if we join the monthly and get 3 random teams! Each Member would get a tier 1, tier 2, tier 3.. so atleast 1 great team, 1 solid team, and 1 bottom feeder a piece.. feed back please?

Posted by: NYStateOfMind1976 Jun 29 2011, 09:11 PM

Hmm. Up to you Chris. You are the host. I know we had a good break running for a while before with Abel and it was 25 bucks a team and there was a ton of interest every month.. That being said times around here have changed...

Wonder if the price (although every other month) might be shying folks away...

I have been trying for years to get into a monthly break with my Yankees but... if we can drum up the interest with a draft only league then I would still be in. (only if you agree to trade me all yankees you get..LOL just kidding)

I would be okay with the draft format if we tiered it. Of course the issue there is are there really ten tier one teams?? Maybe we should keep the price and bring it down to 6 spots (5 teams per) or like you said go to monthly and 10 spots but lower the price if folks are still not in...

Maybe make like the Yankees, Red Sox, Rays avail first round.. then Phillies, Braves, Cards avail second round and so on..

Basically all this typing says I do not know..LOL but I would be regardless of format... LOL

Posted by: Cardman123 Jun 29 2011, 09:19 PM

I have always been of the belief that baseball breaks work best when all teams are randomly assigned. There is just too much of a difference between the haves and the have-nots. There are 6-8 premier teams that get taken every break and then it stalls out. The fact is, the Yankees and Red Sox will always get the most hits and will dominate top-dollar hits, so there is a lot of reluctance if you can't get one of those teams.

I would suggest lower the price point a bit and go total random.

Posted by: srsly_chris Jun 29 2011, 11:05 PM

Changed it up on our main first post, figured it would be easier than creating a new thread. Read the first post!

Three Random teams per slot..

Posted by: Cardman123 Jun 29 2011, 11:28 PM

Put me down for a slot.

Posted by: straightbutta14 Jun 29 2011, 11:44 PM

I'm in..

I'll take a spot.

Posted by: 5pujols5 Jun 30 2011, 08:08 AM

I will take a spot as well.

Posted by: pavi39 Jun 30 2011, 10:14 AM

Add me in as well.

Posted by: srsly_chris Jun 30 2011, 10:31 AM

wow is this all it took? Random teams? smile.gif

Posted by: srsly_chris Jun 30 2011, 10:34 AM

everyone is fine with this product list? No issues with it? One think was a possibility for more hits is a 2008 SPX instead of a 2007 Black

I'm fine with the lineup. I like Black so would prefer to keep it. If you want to replace something, I would lean more toward Masterpieces, which only has two hits and usually just one auto.

Ditto on the Black and Masterpieces.

Posted by: srsly_chris Jun 30 2011, 12:59 PM

Want to keep black myself, and going to swap masterpieces for 2008 SP Authentic, 3 autos, possible big name patch autos, 1 by the letter, and 2008 sp has strasburg autos as well

Posted by: NYStateOfMind1976 Jun 30 2011, 09:57 PM

So all it took was a move to randoms for the movement? Nice.

Posted by: NYStateOfMind1976 Jun 30 2011, 09:58 PM

Chris,

If it is every other month....

If you do not fill it in a day or two I will add a second slot to the break for me...

Posted by: NYStateOfMind1976 Jun 30 2011, 10:00 PM

Just for the sake of discussion...

Lets say in Ginter or another product we get something huge or like a Tony Hawk auto or something that is not baseball related do we want to random it off or... sell and roll it into the next break??

Just food for extremely unlikely thought

Posted by: srsly_chris Jun 30 2011, 11:05 PM

Thanks for break Chris. Congrats to Pavi....nice Braun and Palmer.

Posted by: srsly_chris Jul 12 2011, 01:46 PM

it was very fun, will get sorted in shipped in the next few days, Fiance has Pneumonia and its taking a toll over here, lol.

Any suggestions for our next break, and would you rather stick to bi-monthly or Monthly.

If we keep it in the $60 range, I'm probably fine either way.

I would personally avoid A&G...I know some people love it, but I think it is a product much better geared towards set collectors...I don't think much of it as a group break product. I prefer the big hit based products like Black, Triple Threads, Ultimate etc. I usually like SP Authentic because some of their hits are nice....was very surprised and disappointed that we got two redemptions in our box. I've cracked many, many SPA boxes and don't think I've ever received a redemption. We got pretty unlucky.

Speaking of redemptions...I strongly recommend not doing 06 Ultimate. Some amazing stuff came out of that, but it would be a shame to spend that type of money to pull a redemption, and there are a lot of them. There is ZERO chance of UD honoring anything from 06 Ultimate.

I agree that I believe we need to stay clear A&G. I realize people really like the product but it is mostly a set builders paradise. I also agree that I would rather see the higher end product such as Triple Threads and Ultimate in the break. I do really like the elite simply because there are so many hits per box and they are potential big hits later on. As for the monthly or bi-monthly. I am up for either one. Honestly doens't matter to me, just whatever the group wants. Again thanks for the break!

Monthly, BiMonthly.. Either way is fine with me...

I will be the outsider on this one but I have and always will hate Black. This product I have never had love for... To me, humbly, it has never been worth the price point.But if the masses like it so be it... I would just ask it does not appear every month..

One other point.. I know it sounds silly but depending on product you will have to adjust your teirs.. like if you go with that Lineup the nationals should not be top tier but the bottom rung. I know that sounds like a pain but its fair. If someone got them this month, with this lineup, it is a waste...

Lets do a draft. Passes the time as well...

While I am a big fan of Black, I will agree that if we are doing randomization, tiers should probably be adjusted depending on the products being broken. I also am not opposed to doing a draft for teams. Because we go three rounds, I would suggest doing a randomization of draft picks, do a snake draft for the 1st two rounds, and then do a seperate randomization order for round three.

Yep exactly, if we did a snake draft then the tiers would never have to be set prior. Chips unfold where they way...

But it is Chris show so either way is fine but I am a draft kind of guy..LOL

I agree with with you guys. A snake draft would be a lot of fun, but it is Chris' show and it's all up to you my friend.

I am definitely on board with a draft. I also like Joe's idea of a seperate random for the last round.

Posted by: srsly_chris Jul 16 2011, 05:56 PM

Sounds great to me! I have been so busy with baseball we actually advanced had a triple header tonight and won the championship! now that it's over for the week, I will post transactions tomorrow night, and ship out first thing Monday!

Will be a draft next month smile.gif

Hey Chris...if you haven't packaged and mailed yet...me and straightbutta made a trade for the Black triple Dodgers auto. If you want to throw that card in my package, it would save him a step. You can look at my transactions for confirmation. If not...no worries.

Posted by: straightbutta14 Jul 16 2011, 09:23 PM

That's fine with me as well.. Thanks!

Posted by: kpit1978 Jul 17 2011, 10:39 AM

Hey Chris, check your pm's please.

Posted by: srsly_chris Jul 17 2011, 10:30 PM

will send the dodger triple to cardman, and transactions posted in the morning, My girlfriend passed a cold onto me from her Pneumonia, so I am getting everything out tomorrow so I can rest all week! smile.gif

Posted by: srsly_chris Jul 18 2011, 02:44 PM

alright guys, enjoy the cards, Look for next months thread any day, as soon as we all confirm a return we will draw draft order from a hat and begin our draft.

Posted by: Cardman123 Jul 18 2011, 03:48 PM

Just a suggestion Chris...I think payments should be collected before we hold the draft. I think it is safer for all involved.
