Well, I guess my prediction about those Michael Phelps cards came a little bit quicker than I expected. Various examples on eBay sold for more than $1,000 last week. I guess I'm not all that surprised by this, but seeing a signed card by a current swimmer is still a bit to swallow for someone who thought Tiger Woods autographed cards were getting out of hand.

Speaking of the Olympics, is it just me or does nobody really care about the mens basketball team? I haven't been watching every single day, but I've probably watched about six total hours of the Olympics, and honestly, I haven't heard one thing about the USA b-ball team.

I guess everyone just assumes they are going to win gold... But, nothing is for sure.

One last thing, I'm pretty pumped to announce that I'll be holding another card show this year, after last year's that was such a great success. I did one last year in Green Bay as kind of an experiment and we had hundreds of people who attended.

This year, I'm teaming up with former Packer Tom Brown and his charitable organization, Lombardi's Titletown Champions to hold an autograph signing (with about 12 former Packers) and a card/memorabilia show Sept. 20 from 9am-2pm at Stadium View Sports Bar in GB.
