Gimme a break, and other news

GROUP BREAK

BOXES!  GET YER BOXES!  (Once again yoinked for advertising purposes)

AJ's group break over at Georgia Mindset is tonight!  10 pm EST, http://www.ustream.tv/channel/gamindset-group-break.  Somehow I doubt he'd mind if you put in a last-minute request for one or more teams as long as it's before he gets started.  Even if you don't want to buy in, get some vicarious thrills by peeping the promised UStream...um...stream (if that doesn't work his backup is Youtube vids, still good too).

Yours truly got dibs on the Tigers (AJax RC/Auto and Cabrera 1/1 patch plz) and Orioles (much to Beardy's chagrin, but sometimes a guy needs to get his Ripken on) but there's still some pretty good teams left.  Anyway, don't miss it!

Michigan-Michigan State, 3:30 EST Saturday

Heading says it all.  A beatdown of little brother for my big brother's birthday would be awesome.  Here's hoping for the Denardening and not the Retardening.  A fun video for the meantime:


Since I likely won't be posting tomorrow, here's this stuff a day early:

Other blogs?  Other blogs.

• After seeing all those stupid ads with people getting paid with gum, Night Owl getting paid with cards sounds pretty sweet
• If Refractors were horses, then...um...ok, that's not how the expression goes, but Mojo got his bad self 31 Refractors from 32 2010 Topps Chrome packs
• '"O" No!!! Another Orioles Blog appreciates another Cal card, so again I appreciate his blog
• Sharpe is still busting A&G blaster packs.  Personally, I didn't get into the A&G thing (not this year or any other year) and based on his results I'm not disappointed
• Waxaholic is today's winner of one internet for posting a picture of baseball's dumbass commish picking his nose.  Baseball does need replay and he needs to get his head out of his ass and realize it (Selig, not Waxaholic)
• I Don't Know...3rd Base is trading cards for comments, something I know about all too well, so go get you some
