This week's sale begins on SATURDAY 8/28. Details in the video.Last week we celebrated getting our first Pokemon second wave, this week we got FUCKING DESTINED RIVALS. Next week we'll pull the pants down of more greedy a-holes ruining this hobby.  

LIMIT OF 1 POKEMON PRODUCT PER PERSON. STRICTLY ENFORCED.

I totally forgot to mention the Weiss stuff in the video. lol.

Saturday Updates:

7:47 PM - Booster boxes cleared out. ETBs on deck. IF YOU GOT A BOOSTER BOX GO CELEBRATE. Leave the ETBs. 

7:50 PM - ETBs gone. That's a wrap on Pokemon products. If you scored, congrats, you won the internet for the day. We'll see you all next week. Thank you all.

8:09 PM - Not card related, but tomorrow morning's Sunday Morning Hoops Classic Hip Hop Album is Jay-Z's "The Blueprint". I actually have never listened to it in full, but apparently it's hip-hop caviar. Let's find out what all the fuss is about.

Sunday Updates:

10:19 AM - All orders ship tomorrow afternoon. Thanks again.

 10:20 AM - "The Blueprint" is like the rap equivalent to Brilliant Stars. Very good, but misremebered by history as better than it really was. 3 major flaws hold it back. First is "Takeover". Tough to take a song seriously knowing Nas's "Ether" exists.

The second problem is "Renegade". Up to that point the record has you thinking "This is all pretty dope, sure," but then Eminem shows up and reminds you what a gifted lyricist sounds like. The third problem is Girls-Girls-Girls. What that song conceived in a high school boys locker room? TF was that.

Still, the great production (mainly from young and hungry Kanye) permeates the entire thing, even if the music isn't that exciting to hoop to.
