Card Talk

The NBA crowned a new champion on Monday night as the Nuggets predictably dropped the Heat, making light work of them in 5 games. Even still, is Nikola Jokic one of the most under-appreciated players in the hobby? Also, we have entered a bit of a slow period in sports, or as Lou would call it "baseball time"... but before we all know it, the National will arrive and then NFL training camp will be...

This will likely go down as the weirdest and most random 20 minutes to start a show that we've ever had in our 147 studio recordings, with all topics in play. We're talking: - Aliens - LIV Golf (with breaking news mid-recording) - Pickleball paddles - Apple Vision Pro You know... all the topics that the most hardcore card collectors are discussing! But after the dust settled, it was actually quite...

What a week in sports! The Heat blew a 3-0 lead... but somehow managed to win game 7 in Boston! The NHL Finals will be played in Las Vegas for the first time ever as the Golden Knights get set to battle the Florida Panthers for the Stanley Cup. Soccer has been BONKERS with some wild relegations and promotions coming. It was also a wild week in sports cards. A Barry Bonds card broke the record for...

It finally happened. MPJ has carried the Denver Nuggets to the NBA Finals just as Tyler said he would for the past 3 years :) Denver appears to be on a collision course to meet up with the MIAMI HEAT, who at the time of this recording hold a commanding 3-0 lead on Ryan's Celtics. Is Himmy Butler the most underrated player ever? Also, Fanatics acquired PWCC this week... what does that mean for the...

The NBA and NHL playoffs have now entered the Conference Finals. What do we know? 1. The Knicks and Devils are out. It was a good week for the Reverse ParJay. 2. Connor McDavid will again not be competing for a Stanley Cup. 3. The Celtics dominated game 7 against Philly, with Jayson Tatum putting up an all-time performance. 4. Himmy Buckets is that guy. 5. LeBron vs Jokic is going to be one hell o...

This is one of the greatest times of the year in sports. The NHL and NBA Playoffs are approaching the conference championship rounds. In basketball, the Knicks fading, the Lakers are rising and the winner of the Nuggets vs Suns series appearing to be on target to win it all. On the ice, the Oilers and Connor McDavid are playing their hearts out for their #1 day 1 fan, Ryan Johnson, the Devils are...

They said the "reverse parJay" was the play. Rangers and Cavs, they said. O for 2. Hate to see it. The boys are back in studio talking all things NFL Draft! How will three qb's in the top 4 picks effect the card market? Will 2023 product be one of the hottest ever? Who are the underrated and overrated picks to come out in this class? Also, the NBA playoffs 2nd round kicked off with the Knicks and...

Aaron Rodgers is the new QB1 of the New York Jets. I'm gonna type it again just because it makes me (Jay), Lou and Tyler so happy. Aaron Rodgers is the new QB1 of the New York Jets!!!

The NFL draft is on Thursday and the b...

First we have Prizm Monopoly cards doing some serious numbers on eBay... is this a viable long term play?

I am!" autos.. but sold 400... but did they come out of that mistake looking good with the way they handled...

Tyler's favorite event has come and gone like Christmas morning... but what a few days at Augusta! John Rahm proved again that he's currently the best player on the planet, but there were a ton of other storylines including Phil Mickelson and the rest of the LIV players mixing it up with the stars of the PGA for a weekend. Golden Age closed their Masters themed auction over the weekend as well, an...
