Custom Card of the Day- Pat the Bat Edition

I didn't get any cards last night. The store owner closed for the night just as I had gotten to the door. He closed us out at 8:55. I'm not making this stuff up.

Pat Burrell really surprised me this season. He started off slow, with the Rays, then he was signed by the Giants, and his year took off. I saw him play at home, and he had a few hits. He's really been doing great this season for San Fransisco.

Today I'm definitely getting some cards. I don't care if he closes at 5:00 PM, I just want some cards!

Tomorrow- Once a highly touted Tampa Bay prospect (Geez, so many good players fall into that category), now a Texas Ranger. Jorge Cantu is tomorrow.

"Honey, I broke the Topps design!"

Yeah, I completely butchered the 1998 Topps design. Let's just think for a moment- would it be easy for a teenager to customize a design where adding in the title without harming the design is frickin impossible? No, not at all? It was very frustrating, and then I just figured that for the Rays and D-Backs, I might just make my own design, a design that works, is cool, and won't get all the bloggers on my case about.

Case in point- 1998 Topps- the Better Version.

And Pat...it looks as though he's still truckin'

Coming up tomorrow- This guy hit a HUGE home run yesterday for my Phillies. For that, you will get a custom.
