if you watched the NFL and thought something didn't feel right, you're not alone: #1 most flags in over a decade thru 4 weeks, refs are impacting the most CRITICAL moments of games most: #1 most red zone penalties per game by offenses in history #1 most penalties on 3rd/4th downs in the second half of games in history and 17 touchdowns nullified by penalty! (vs only 5 in 2025 & 4 in 2024) Refs are impacting the most important moments of games unlike we've ever seen before in the NFL, and even some of the coaches are speaking up full analysis and historical data: sharpfootballanalysis.com/an…

Phillies sign Tommy Pham to a minor-league deal, per @jorgecastillo If Pham makes the big leagues, Philly will be his 11th team, which would be the most by an MLB hitter since Matt Stairs (12)

I don’t recommend buying from @blewesphillies I received a partial order but missed a slab. Which he sold it to somebody else. I’ve been messaging him for months for a refund or different cards in return. He has agreed to send me replacement cards and refund have yet to receive

😂😂😂😂 who the hell are you with all this superior knowledge look in the mirror and see how old you are. You have no idea what the young Collectors coming up are doing you’re totally out of sync I’m trying to be polite right now. But you seriously have no idea what you’re talking about.

👀🚀🔥 Physical sports card collectors don’t want to hear this… but the hobby is moving on. The Panini Blockchain cards ecosystem exposes just how flawed physical collecting really is. Thread 🧵👇 1️⃣ **Grading is subjective** Two identical cards can get different grades depending on the day, the grader, or the company. That’s not scarcity. That’s inconsistency. 2️⃣ **Population manipulation** With physical cards you constantly hear: “New cases found.” “Warehouse inventory surfaced.” “Reprints.” Meanwhile blockchain cards have **provable supply forever**. 3️⃣ **Damage risk** Corners. Scratches. Centering. Shipping damage. Collectors spend thousands just protecting cardboard. Digital cards don’t degrade. 4️⃣ **Slow market** Want to sell a physical card? • Ship it • Wait for grading • Wait for auction • Pay fees Blockchain trading = instant global liquidity. 5️⃣ **Fake cards exist** Counterfeits and altered cards are everywhere in physical collecting. Blockchain ownership is verified on-chain. 6️⃣ **The irony** The same company producing physical cards — **Panini America** — already proved the future with blockchain. Many collectors just aren’t ready to admit it. 7️⃣ **Market inefficiency** Some 1/1 blockchain cards sell for less than random physical parallels. That gap won’t last forever. Early collectors understand this. The next generation of the hobby is digital.
