#PackADailyCircus #GintACuffs - Hobby Packs 03, 04, and oh why not 05

Good evening, folks! I know I have posted several times today, which is against some kind of cardinal rule of blogging, but these Allen and Ginter cards keep calling my name. Like a sailor drawn to the siren's song, I...must...obey...

Well, as far as GAC goes, that pack sucked. Oh well, as far as PAD goes, we made out quite well! We've added some great cards to several managers' stacks. Congratulations, folks!

Okay, let's not dwell on that last one. Here is the next pack:

Wahoo! This pack has some great cards in there! From a GAC point-of-view, we scored nicely with the SPs and parallels, plus a favorite player in the mix! On the PAD side, we have HOFers to spread around. Congratulations, managers!

Okay, well, after that pack, I can't simply walk away! I have to try another. Wish us luck!
