I'll preface this by saying that's nicer than any card I own...although I couldn't help but notice that SGC gave this auto a 10 even though it runs off sticker.

I don't pay too much attention to SGC slabs (other than vintage occasionally, and you won't find too many stickers there obviously), but I just thought this was a curious finding.

Works out in your favor though!

My red refractor Autograph of Bailey runs off the sticker, but still got a 10 from SGC. I guess they don't care if it runs.

Wow, very interesting...and good to know!

Haha I appreciate the kind words! But I totally agree. I submit with CardCollector2 and we talked about it before sending it in. He said that SGC only grades the auto if it grades a 10. Otherwise, they leave the auto grade off. That’s why I opted to send to SGC. I assumed they would just grade the card, knowing he ran off sticker. My only guess is, they only discount smudges and faded autos.... or the grader didn’t know how he signs. Either way, I didn’t think it would get a 10 auto either. A pleasant surprise! Lol

Let's go PEPI!

Nice brace.

Just got this in the mail yesterday - slight price dip recently (likely due to Sapphire release):

Has Reyna been hurt?

Yeah, he's still recovering from his injury suffered during last qualifying round. He was actually supposed to play in Dortmund's last game prior to the international break but was held out due to not being fully fit.

Win. That's it. That's what we need.

Looks like we get the "A" lineup for this qual window. So you'll have at least the best chance of what's on the roster to see good things. For the most part. I'm not an Arriola in the 11 hater as much as some, though.

Gonna go with optimism... Aaronson with a goal and 2 assists... and Pepi and Miles Robinson (off a set play) with the other 2 goals. 3-1 US.

I’m with you, this is a great lineup. Excited to see Steffen get the start in Columbus. I hope Gyasi gets some late minutes, but that’s just because it’ll be in front of his home crowd. Panini did a really interesting blockchain NFT at each seat.

Weah in, Arriola out.

Dest rocked tonight

daviswr7 · 10-13-2021, 08:14 PM

Hopefully puliscic and Reyna back in November I was a bit underwhelmed with this game. Costa Rica has the oldest team I’ve ever seen! A win is a win but we did it the hard way I felt.

Gin&Juice · 10-13-2021, 08:38 PM

Build up play was much better tonight. Final ball was still lacking a bit. And we got sloppy in the back a couple times. Good team performance overall, though.

I really like watching Busio play. Wouldn’t mind seeing him get some more time.

US dominated 85 minutes of that game. Costa Rica scored a fluke goal, otherwise had no response.

I think we were lucky Costa Rica wasn't awarded a PK on that try at the end of the game. Didn't look super great but 3 pts is 3 pts. Dest's goal off his left foot was just a beauty...a Rocket!

Also lucky Weah’s went in... but the officials were equally as awful for both sides.

Added a Wynalda auto to the PC recently:

Donruss prices/breaks were depressing so I did the natural thing and opened up a box of overpriced MLS cards - because I actually enjoy MLS.

No Pepi, but hit a couple of Caden Clarks.
