This past week finally settled down a ton at work. So much so that I actually took a day off to kind of catch myself back up from all the time I put in the two weeks prior. That definitely helped me get back on track with some blog related things.
February has been a little slow so far. Normally there is a kind of rhythm to the TTMs that come in. Usually Monday has a better chance at a big return, Tuesday is nothing but junk mail, Wednesday through Saturday all has kind of equal chances at seeing returns, etc.. But it seems like so far there’s been no rhyme or reason to what I’ve seen coming in. IT’s been kind of a general slow down.
I finally started getting Spring Training attempts organized and sent out. I feel like I am about a week late, but better late than never.
The Review
Here’s what happened on the blog last week:
- Sunday: Bill Cartwright
- Monday: Swen Nater
- Tuesday: Steve Farr, January 2020 TTM Report
- Wednesday: Danny Duffy
- Thursday: Terrell Brandon
- Friday: Floyd Rayford
- Saturday: Matt Young
If there was a theme to this week it would be basketball and Royals. Most of these were first time returns aside from Danny Duffy and Matt Young. I feel like it’s always a better week with first time returns because I’m giving you guys a little more content.
The Preview
Here’s what I have coming up for this week:
- Monday: You might find him at the zoo…
- Tuesday: One letter off some alcohol…
- Wednesday: Charlie bit me…
- Thursday: Blood sucker…
- Friday: Hangin’ with Mr….
- Saturday: iCarly?
- Sunday: Not multiple Walts, just a…
Take a shot and see if you can think of what might be coming up this week on the blog. Let’s have some fun with it.
Other Notes
The backlog number is up to 87. I never really thought it would get that high when I started doing this. But sending out a few more a week has really helped things a lot. Usually February and/or March has a good chance to be a strong month so that should definitely edge up over 90 soon.
I’ll have some other content coming up as 2020 Topps Series 1 came out last week. Plus I have some other old boxes that I opened. One is even some old football that I picked up. I opened that while watching the first XFL games. That first one wasn’t all that bad actually. The crowd seemed really good so we will see how that goes.
Hope you have a great week!
