Hmmm.... when it comes to this "hobby", I don't think I want to get started.

I will say that I still enjoy looking at the stuff, but it's lost a little sparkle.

Sometimes all the whinging gets old.

I am just glad I am still upright, sniffing the air and trying to enjoy what is left of the hobby.

Grievances: None

Small annoyances: Some

Joy: A whole lot. Finished my T220 Master dream set this year, got up to 23/24 uncut sheet panels from that set, and picked up more rarities or unique pre-war stuff than I had planned. Had a ton of fun with research and piecing together more of the ATC picture. Picked up a lot of vintage football I've had a blast with. Crossed a few of the last cards off my post-war Topps/Bowman wantlists. Christmas is fun.

100%. You shared many of those pick ups here and I enjoyed them all.

I have a massive Festivus screed scheduled to hit tomorrow morning on my Substack, so I don't want to spoil that, but I will throw this one in the ring here:

Obnoxious card bros braying like jackasses into their devices at shows as they stumble over and through other attendees while shooting their 'influencer' videos.

I lament the apparent end of vintage card scholarship inside grading companies. I've got some free time, if they need people willing to scour Newspapers.com and write cogent, 100% correct opinions!
