Bowman

Because could you imagine if he was playing like Heinz Ward played? Like, it would be they would have to order more stretchers.

it broke to do my nose we have some more information on a product that a couple products that me and Nate are very excited for Bowman football we will have a good amount in stock for release weekend.

Um, we are going to probably do something similar than we did for flagship football and we'll do some giveaways and stuff.

I think we're going to do that on most like main drops that we have like a lot of product to go around.

Clearly, we've got Flagship and Heritage.

Topps will probably run it.

Bowman.

Bowman.

You sold a very big Otani card fairly recently.

And then just very recently, you sold a Tom Brady Bowman rookie card.

I think it was a PSA 9.

Tell us about that as far as your thinking behind it and why you're selling those cards and what you're doing with it.

And then when the funds come in from the sale, I try to be very precise and target items that fit my collection that are scarcer and feel more relevant.

So I think a lot of us have been going through that process and I have been for a couple of years, but I've really kind of mashed the gas here in 2026, just because of the crazy prices that some of these items are going for.

Yeah, I mean, and as a Brady collector, I can tell you that, you know, obviously a lot of his rookie cards, but yeah, the Bowman and the Bowman Chrome, unbelievable climb they've taken recently here.

And, you know, I think what happens is, you mentioned it, new people, new money coming into the hobby, a wave of new everything, collectors and people starting businesses, flippers, whatever, you know, there's a wave of new people coming into the area, to the space.

Me and Bert are going to test our hobby now against each other with a little one-upping game.

We're going to talk about Bow Mania, the show from Bob, who you would remember from the last few episodes when we were going over Bowman Chrome.

And then we will be talking about Bowman Chrome Mega.

Is this the most hyped mega box since in ultra-modern cards, I would say? There's a lot to be excited about for it.

Bird's got a lot of things to say.

I am going to be there with the podcast recording, and we already know that you are going to be there as well with me.

You will be co-hosting the show for portions, and you're also going to be doing your live briefs representing Grand Slammy sports cards as well.

So, yeah, tell us about Bowmania, why everyone should be as excited as we are.

Go ahead.

Yeah, so, so when you're getting into ki- when you're getting into kinda breaking this stuff down, how do you relate this to the baseball market? 'Cause, you know, Bowman Chrome is coming out this week.

Yeah.

And Bowman is starting to add a lot of new parallels and things like this, and the other day you were talking to me about a Minion card or something, and I was like, "What even is this?" You know what I mean?

Well, let me tell you this.

And then they did the Garbage Pail Kids, and I think we-

There's not even a picture of the player, like it's the stupidest thing I've ever seen.

Like I-

There's a Chamberlain '61.

Uh, there's a '49 Bowman Jackie.

Wow.

Th- this one's interesting.

I do, I do think though it is a, it is definitely a situation that, you know, we'll see more often when people open up these junk wax boxes.

And I remember, uh, Jeff Wilson was on an episode and he...

There was a 1955 Bowman, uh, pack that was in a PSA slab, and he said, "Oh," it was a huge thumbnail, "We're gonna open this up on camera.

W- we might find a Mantle in here," blah, blah, blah.
