I watch a ton of card videos on here, and a lot of channels can't seem to get the recording just right, for instance ● Where the light is placed. ● Distance for camera, or ● Desk space, etc. I think you have one of the most aesthetically pleasing setups. It would be cool to see your layout. Thank you, this channel kicks @$$

Looks like a realistic expectation of blasters. Looks very similar to my experience. These boxes are so much more fun to rip though because of the product.

For the Volpe card, I believe topps did future stars as its own insert set for chrome with its own unique card design that’s separate from the base card design (as opposed to the series 1 & 2 approach that just had the designation written at the top the base card)

I think WAR is a great indicator of how valuable a player truly is. Ohtani currently has a 5.9 WAR and Harper has a 3.8 WAR. So even though Shohei is a DH, this metric would indicate that Ohtani is way more valuable than Harper.
@westernnycards4 ай бұрын
Agreed!

I love the rips and the cards, just not the feeling of not getting anything "really good." I finally found 2 Chrome Blasters and was extremely fortunate! I got 2 autographs, 1 is numbered and a Black Ray Wave #/10 Tatis Jr.! I was so happy! Love these videos!!!

What's funny about the Shohei for MVP push is that all of those people criticize others for saying anyone else could be MVP by asking, "Oh does (insert player here) pitch?" Yet this year (with him not picthing), the same people are fine giving it to someone who doesn't even field. I'm good either way, it's just funny.

If one can't win mvp for not fielding (defense), why does pitcher win mvp for not batting (offense)? Is fielding more important than batting?
@briansimmons95914 ай бұрын
@@mart333 That's not my point. My point is next time all the people assume Shohei should win MVP because he pitches and hits, we need to point to this year, in which he didn't even field. Vladdy was better offensively in 21, but had no chance because Shohei pitches.

I’ve come convinced opening boxes is just an alternative to going to a casino and dropping cash into slot machines. You know you are most likely going to lose but you are naive enough to do it because you see videos of people hitting the jackpot on KZbin and think you’ll do the same.
