This is just another example, to me, of what makes the hobby so much fun. With a limited amount of funds to use for this auction, and several great items to purchase...all going off at different times, you really have to narrow down what you want to bid on and come up with a strategy. I determined that I had to pass on several I would have liked to have bid on yesterday so that I could make higher bids on ones I REALLY REALLY want today. The downside of course is that I may be outbid today which leaves me out in the cold, but that's all part of the game!

It is showing us that nothing even matters until that final 7 seconds of bidding. It's silly to get your hopes up, based on the first 99.99% of time elapsed.
Jimmy... your Clemente sequential shot and Aaron/Mantle photo are both to die for. I had a snipe in on the Clemente that never even registered. I'm very glad it went to you, as the companion Sport Magazine is a killer. I can't believe how quickly you were able to find/acquire it... big time congrats! |

Mark, GREAT Gehrig shot. Ya gotta love something from the '37 Series, especially if it involves Gehrig and that awesome shadow of the second deck in the Polo Grounds. I LOVE the action and light in that one.
Ben, as I mentioned yesterday, that was one hell of a bargain. A more formidable infield I've never seen. A more formidable photo of said formidable infield I've never seen, either. Jimmy, once I saw that Clemente sequential get posted, I thought to myself, 'there's one Jimmy's gonna win'. I just followed the formula that I learned early on in our friendship: Clemente + sequential photography = VERY happy Jimmy. Mike, that shot of Landis is sweet. I love those shots of him with his chin on the rail. Very iconic!! Mark (perezfan), any shot of Willie with kids is just grand. It seems like that's when that awesome boyish smile really comes out!!

Graig,
Thanks. I like his action shots as well. I have another from that series around the bag a first with a different Giant player running. I bid on some others last night too, but it wasn't meant to be. Perhaps tonight will see a few more successes. Mark
