No, As A Matter Of Fact, I'm NOT Dead

Contrary to popular belief, my blog is still alive and kickin'. As with many people during this time of the year, my life has just become quite busy. Add in that I haven't really been buying any cards lately and, well....I've just had nothing to say. But that is about to change, as I have a series of updates for you!!!
--------------------
First and foremost, good ol' Alex over at Chavez Ravining is having his very first box break. He's going to bust few boxes of Topps Chrome. $25 gets you a team of your choosing and a randomly assigned team. Head over and sign up! And Brian, if you're reading, I finally beat you to the punch to get the Rangers in a break! How 'bout them apples?!?!
--------------------
Speaking of breaks, I still plan on hosting my 2014 Bowman Chrome break! I have eight spots still open. Cost is $80 and that gets you two teams (a team of your choice and a randomly assigned team) from an entire case (read: 40 total autos!) and shipping! It's a steal! Sign up now!
--------------------
2014 Allen & Ginter drops this week. Obviously, I plan on winning Gint-A-Cuffs VI. But, in the event that I don't pull it myself, keep an eye out for this card:

It's the Doug McDermott auto card. I NEED this card!
--------------------
I know there are some pretty intense Cubs fans out there, so hopefully this will help them out a bit. I found this listing over at Freedom Cardboard while perusing the marketplace forum. Bobbleheads and other memorabilia from the Cubs Centennial Celebration of Wrigley Field. Maybe someone will be interested!
--------------------
My TTM contest has yet to begin, as I've been waiting for a few more entrants into the game. As it stands now, five people have expressed interest in playing. I would like to have at least five more, but I will go with whoever is signed up by Friday and start the game. So sign up and stay tuned!
--------------------
A couple of weeks ago, I posted a plea for help and requested that you send me duplicates from your 2014 S2 set building to save me from having to purchase any packs. Well, thanks to Robert of $30 A Week Habit fame and Raz from The Raz Card Blog, I am almost done with the set! I have sorted everything, all I need to do is update my Needs List for the set and I'll be ready to pick up those last cards! Thanks again gentlemen!
--------------------

Now that I finally broke down and bought a shelving unit for my cards, I'm making it my personal goal for the second half of the year to finish off the 2013 sets listed in my sidebar. Please take a look at my needs lists that you see over there on the right and send me any cards you may have. I would greatly appreciate it!
