Starting A New, Old Hobby: Card Collecting As An Adult

“Hey hun, I was thinking, I am 35 years old now, I think its time I stopped playing video games in my free time.”

“Are you serious?” 

“Yeah you know, being married, paying a mortgage and having a child really puts things into perspective, and as much as I love playing video games…it’s time to grow up.”

“Are you kidding me?”

“Absolutely not.”

“So what are you going to do instead?”

“I am going to start collecting baseball cards again.”

“Oh, god…”

NFL Draft Grades

The NFL Draft is over, and for a few days, it gave us, enough entertainment to distract us from the mundane of quarantine life, or at the very least, kept us from trying to talk ourselves into watching another reality show on Netflix. The NFL Draft, not surprisingly, broke every previous draft record for viewership as nearly five million people tuned in to get their sports fix. It provided lots of intrigue, especially in how it would all work, gave us a fun insight into players, coaches and personnel’s homes (including pets), and some relative surprises. The NFL draft was fun, especially when you consider the circumstances, but it’s aftermath provides us a little bit of a warped picture.

2020 NFL Mock Draft (With Special Guests)


The week, and almost the day, is upon us! The 2020 NFL Draft happens this Thursday, and for the first time in what feels like forever, we have something sports related to look forward to. The NFL world is buzzing with one of the most anticipated drafts in memory (partly because there is nothing else to talk about). So what we decided to do, was invite some experts, each of whom, has an allegiance to a different team, then we gave each participant three additional teams and we held a mock draft over zoom to simulate what could happen this weekend at the 2002 NFL Draft.
