This is from my Brady PC, I picked it up at one point as I thought it was a pretty unique card. Still think that - and not sure it will ever be a big hitter in the Brady card craze, it is still interesting to have a card from 2003 that is serialed and in great shape. While Drake Maye takes it from here, and Brady is now focused on the Raiders, I can’t help remember all the years in New England and the later years in Tampa where he just defied the odds. #GOAT

Late night, off-hour auction pickup. Just arrived in the mail…great serial number uniform match (-5/0 and Mookie is #50 uniform). This one is for the Frozen PC and it’s of a guy that is really missed in Boston. What a career he has had in Los Angeles, though.

I’ll probably have it graded at some point when PSA settles down but meanwhile here is a shot of the raw card. It really pops in-person.

Markus Lynn "Mookie" Betts is a Major League Baseball (MLB) player for the Los Angeles Dodgers who plays shortstop, second base, and outfield. The Boston Red Sox drafted him in the 5th round of the 2011 MLB Draft. Betts is an eight-time All-Star, four-time World Series champion, and 2018 American League MVP. He's also a skilled bowler who competes professionally in the PBA and has bowled a perfect game.

Just back from PSA for all you Darnold fans. Still deciding if I am keeping this one for the PC or not…

Born on June 5, 1997, in Dana Point, California, Sam Darnold has survived one of the most fascinating roller-coaster journeys of any modern NFL quarterback.

After lighting up college football at USC—winning the Rose Bowl and earning First-Team All-Pac-12 honors—he entered the NFL as the franchise savior for the New York Jets in 2018. While his early years were met with rocky team situations across New York and Carolina, Darnold’s elite raw talent never faded.

Fast forward to today: Darnold has completely flipped the narrative, silencing the critics by leading the Seattle Seahawks to a legendary Super Bowl LX victory and cementing his status as a premier starting quarterback in the league.

Featured here is a spectacular flashback to where it all began: his 2018 Panini Contenders Rookie Card #103 numbered 01/15 and certified Authentic with a pristine Gem Auto 10 by PSA.

Never give up on elite talent. 📈

Just revealed by PSA last night in my grading preview email and on its way to my collection.

Seeing the Sixers build a super team, with the Jaylen Brown trade as the big domino that brought them LeBron James, has been painful to watch for this Celtics diehard. That said, JB will always be part of my PC.

What a season he had this past year putting the team on his back with almost 29 ppg. As a fan I trust Celtics President of Basketball Operations Brad Stevens but this trade will come back to haunt Boston and the Eastern Conference of the NBA.

This is from my Brady PC…love the throwback PSA slab design and label.

Released by Upper Deck in 2002, the Piece of History football set is known for its classic, clean designs.

This card dates back to the 2002 NFL season, right after Tom Brady shocked the world by stepping in for an injured Drew Bledsoe and leading the New England Patriots to victory in Super Bowl XXXVI. It was produced during his first full season as a starting quarterback, which I found interesting.
