i am staggered and heartbroken and bipped all at once

although it’s a mini-bip, courtesy of heartbreaking cards of staggering genius.
five 1994 donruss special edition ramon martinez cards.  i can deal with that.
there were many many more cards included, such as a 1986 topps carlos diaz
carlos was born in honolulu, which is fairly rare for a major leaguer - baseball reference shows only 35 hawaiians have played in the big leagues, and not all of them were from the capitol city.  of course, diaz is the second dodger pitcher to be born there - charlie hough is the other.
2005 topps total hee seop choi.
jim tracy’s whipping boy manning first in dodger stadium.  i sure wish topps would bring total back.  where else am i going to get a brent leach card?
2007 upper deck mark hendrickson
i wish the dodgers would go ahead and retire maury wills’ number already.  i know it’s against their policy (other than the jim gilliam exception) but come on.  when dave roberts wore it, he had maury’s blessing.  i doubt big bird did.
a couple of autographs - 2004 fleer greats jeff torborg
it’s a sticker, but still…
and a 2004 upper deck legends timeless teams mickey hatcher
on card stunt man!  i wish mickey would sign ttm.  the only time i have met him (a couple years ago at spring training) i was unprepared.
finally, matt sent me my first 2010 card.  not just dodger, but card. 
it’s true - i haven’t bought any 2010 stuff. yet. i probably will, although i will likely just buy singles.  until i really feel the need to open packs.  which should be any day now.
thanks matt!

i have been bipped, in a manner of speaking i would have guessed it would have been beardy to do the trick, but instead, it was rod from padrographs.  fitting, i suppose, since bip roberts spent the bulk of his career with the pads.  fortunately for me, my bipping wasn’t, by rule, a true bipping - i got at...

Nachos Grande Gets a Big Pile of Bipped! Back when I first started blogging, Matt from Heartbreaking Cards was super kind and overly generous in sending me two packages of cards I wanted for free.

Bipped by Dollar Tree I had been reading on several blogs about the packs of old cards at Dollar Tree, and decided to pick some up.I bought five packs of “Bringing Back The Oldies,” which advertised itself as being all 1980s cards, with one guaranteed 80s star. That one guaranteed 80s star was Tom...

An Upper Deck error I was looking at the back of Marc Pisciotta’s 1994 Upper Deck Minors card and noted it said he was born in 1965, which would have made him 29 years old that year, pretty old for a minor leaguer.Well I looked him up and it turned out he was born...
