So 7 losses in 9 games. Yeesh.
They certainly do suck.

Don’t like dude walking back to dugout before handing the ball off. It’s a little thing but shows they’re checked out.

I honestly think Jay told him to get in the dugout.
I’m almost one year into retirement and I still can’t stop smiling. It’s better than I ever imagined.

re: Social Security at age 62

My logic is that I will be reducing what I pull from my 401K every year when I’m 62 by taking the $36K I get from social security. I can either pull $36K from my 401K and pay the federal and state taxes on the earnings and miss out on whatever it would earn on my investments that year (assume > 5%) or take the social security which also won’t have any state taxes. I just retired at age 59, so won’t be working when 62.

This is my exact same scenario and my exact same reasoning. I retired last year at 58.

It’s been happening to me for a couple of weeks. Glad to know I’m not the only one.

Post this in the Sports card and memorabilia thread on the More Sports Board.

Good idea. Done.
I posted this in the OT and someone suggested I also post it here.

Just wanted to post an update to my thread from a few months ago where I asked for advice on selling the childhood card collection that my brother and I put together as kids. Link to that thread:

Selling Baseball Collection

I had been following Chasing Cardboard, so I took a chance and submitted our collection to them. For those of you who don’t know, Chasing Cardboard goes around the country buying sports card collections and filming the episodes. High quality production and they’re just like American Pickers but with cards. They look for the stories as much as the cards.

Well, they Immediately got in touch with us, set up a date and came out to film us earlier this month. The episode went live this morning and here’s the link.

Chasing Cardboard

They filmed for most of the day and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish.

Enjoy.

Or maybe he was being polite and doesn’t want to eat in a stranger’s house. I kind of get that.
