If Aurasma can scan an image, recognize it and load up a video from a database, shouldn't there be a program for scanning and logging cards?


Guess what: 2012 @ToppsCards flagship isn't any better than it was 3 months ago when I said I wouldn't buy any more of it!


Pack 8: Golden Greats Koufax, Golden Futures Alexi Ogando. Pack 9: Josh Hamilton '87 mini. Pack 10: Zack Greinke gold and a code card.


I've been drinking... this is actually Pack 7: Edgar Martinez Golden Moments, hideous blank-space/tiny picture David Ortiz Classic Walk-Offs


Pack 5: Yunel Escobar gold parallel with Adam Jones in the background, Al Kaline "Gold Standard," Jason Hammel in a Rockies uni.


err that was Pack 4. I swear I can count.


Pack 3: Doctor Adam Jones '87 Mini, Frank Thomas/Paul Konerko "Timeless Talents"


Pack 4: Albert Pujols "Golden Greats" and a Golden Giveaway code card.


Pack 3: Frank Thomas "Golden Moments" and a bunch o' base.


Pack 2: Alberto Callaspo Golden Moments parallel and a couple of injured Orioles (Reynolds and Reimold)


Pack 1: Starlin Castro "Gold Futures," Robinson Cano '87 mini.


Finals over and I've never felt so alive. Rewarded myself with ... a Topps blaster from KMart. Let's see what I get. #TheHobby


Pack 5: who cares. I need a beer.


Pack 4: bunch o' crap and a Golden Giveaway Code... COMING SOON


Pack 3: More inserts, more huge empty spaces. Barf.


Pack 2: '87 mini Lance Berkman, Gold Futures Jose Tabata.


Pack 1: blingee'd gold Teixeira and a "Classic Walk-Offs" Alfonso Soriano with a Panini-esque big empty space for the auto'd version. :-|


Ended up buying five 2012 Topps hobby packs. LCS was out of jumbos and hobby boxes were 95 damn dollars.


Heading to the local card shop. We'll see if I'm over my Topps flagship burnout or if I just end up buying cheap hockey packs. #TheHobby
