Speaking of WVU, former quarterback Geno Smith is getting another look as the starter. I'm hoping he plays well. The Jets were pretty much the worst case scenario for the former Mountaineer. When he was drafted the Jets were in full fledged rebuild mode. While the team is still struggling, the bones of a good team are still there. They have Matt Forte and Brandon Marshall to help carry some of the load.
Over the past 6 months I've been hoarding as many Geno cards as possible. I've been picking up relics for basically nothing and autos for less than $5. High end cards are selling in the $10-$20 range. I'm sure now that he is back starting prices will swing up some so I'm glad I took advantage.
Here are a couple new additions.
I'll probably bust the dual auto out of the case at some point. I have a big curio cabinet that I display a lot of WVU memorabilia and the BGS 8.5 case is a little much.
When I see cool Prizm cards like the Geno from the Panini Unparalleled set it makes me wish they would get a baseball license. This is not even one of my favorites and it still looks nice.
Enjoy all the baseball and football today!
Thanks for reading!
Hopefully he makes the most out of this opportunity, because he might not get another chance. That dual autograph looks great! It's pretty amazing too, it's actually an on card dual auto.
ReplyDeleteI was so bummed when he had to leave the game because of his knee. At least he had one cool moment with the long touchdown pass.
DeleteGood luck with Grier
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure when we will find out if he still has to serve the suspension that was handed down. I know the university is appealing on his behalf. The job is his next year because Howard is graduating.
DeleteI would guess this is it for Geno. Last chance to prove himself. I was lucky to pull an auto of his. Have held it hoping he would get another shot
ReplyDeleteI always want to see him do well. He inherited a tough situation when he was drafted. Should have never been thrown into starting right away.
