If it makes anyone feel better I just got a big shipment of books back from CGC today and one book I expected to get an 8.5 on came back a 9.8... Yeah, can't explain that one.

Holy c**p Batman! Can you post a photo?

So if I wager $1 on the field and win you will Paypal me $20K? If so, pls PM your Paypal email for my $1. Cause my daily MLB fantasy team isn't doing anything for me right now.

I don't have one yet, but the error was totally mine. It was an Umbrella Academy FCBD book, and the back cover image ever so slightly wrapped over the spine to the front of the book. When it did that, the back cover was much whiter than the front and looked like major spine wear. Glad I decided to grade it anyway!

Hmm...seems like I sense some insider trading here. LOL. Kav is currently tied with me after Rd #1, so I can't bring myself to bet against the guy. I have to root for my fellow 4 pointer.

But I'd be willing to take the field at 10,000-1. I'd be giving you a 50% discount.

Just got this email. This is how bad I'm at fantasy sports (you guys thought I was just bad at comic book grading).

So it was a free contest. That's the good news. Bad news is you can get a better coupon than this on-line. So I think this "win" meant I probably came in last.

 

EDIT: Can I donate this as part of the prize pool?

3/1 odds - 4 - total tied for 1st place after round 2

SayWhat? - 1 - total # of people who will correctly guess the other three numbers (no idea, really)

Even odds - 2 - total double-bulls this round

That sounds like the measurements for some sort of lady flower monster -- Groot's girlfriend perhaps?

And it's past 9 pm here. Liquor stores have closed. Please let me do well. Otherwise I'm going to have to drive down the street to that sleazy, smokey biker bar to get me some last place bourbon & coke.
