I got a bunch of cards in the mail the other day from TJ over at
http://allyourbasecards.blogspot.com/. Other than having one of the cooler blog names around, "All Your Base Cards Belong To Us", TJ does a great job of posting fun trading card, Portland Trailblazers and pop cultural posts. TJ is a part of what I've dubbed, "The Oregon Trail", a group of talented bloggers who hail from the Pacific Northwest of the United States. Some of the blogs these guys represent include:
The Basketball Card Blog,
All Your Base Cards,
The Trailblazers Card Blog and
Cards on Cards. I wrote a post on the old Hoopography iWeb site chronicling this phenomenon of great sports card related blogs from that part of the country several months ago (

Back to the cards TJ sent. I received four team bags full of great New York Knickerbockers, Yankees and Buffalo Bills cards. TJ said he was going to send me a few cards, but what he ended up sending me was way more than what I expected! I sent him a package of some Trailblazers and Red Sox cards. Hopefully you like what I sent you TJ.
There were way too many cards for me to list every single one, so here're a few of my favorites from the lot:
(This 2010 Panini Prestige C.J. Spiller RC
is my favorite from the lot. Thanks TJ.)
