Motivational Thursday

There’s no such thing as luck. 

There isn’t. There fortunate, but there’s no such thing luck. Working hard prepares you for opportunities and luck finds you. You create your own luck. Lucks searches for you when you do good and when you work hard. Bottom line. And if you ever hear anyone say,”I wish just once i can get lucky” then you have the right to punch them in the face. 

Bobble of the Day “Nolan Ryan”

Bobble of the Day

Player: Nolan Ryan

Team: Corpus Christi Hooks 

Year: Unknown

Manufacturer: RMCG (Worldwide Global Sourcing Company)

So I added this sweet Nolan Ryan a few weeks ago to my collection. You rarely find baseball bobbleheads of an actual player standing at the podium giving his induction speech at the National Baseball Hall of Fame. 

A lot you millennials never got a chance to watch Ryan pitch. The guy was an absolute beast and seemed to never have a tired arm. I love the Hall of Fame sticker on front of the podium. Nolan is decked out in a suit and tie looking sharp as fuck. The entire base is a brown color with Nolan’s name in raised white letters. 

 

 

Sniper Rating: The Corpus Christi Hooks upper management did one hell of a job with this one. Creativity at it’s finest. The box is also super bad ass, as it’s got nice photo’s of the Hall of Famer and direct phrases that Nolan said at his induction ceremony. Given the fact that this is a one of a kind SGA, I’d rate Nolan Ryan’s induction Cooperstown Hall of Fall speech bobble a 9.5. 

Motivational Wednesday

People love to judge when they haven’t even heard a word come out of your mouth.

I see it all the time. People get judged on the way they look and even walk! This guy’s an asshole, that girl is a bitch. For no reason. Do some people just flat out look like assholes? Of course! Should they be judged? No. Get to know a person before making that assessment. 

Just think of how low you will feel as a person if you judge someone based on their looks and they turn out to be the nicest person you’ve ever met? 

Motivational Tuesday

Never change to be accepted by others.

Never, ever change who you are as a person just to fit in with a certain group of people. Fuck them. Be you and no one else. If you think you have to change who you are just to be accepted, then you don’t ever need to surround yourself with those others. You were born with a specific personality. Stay with it and never change!

Bobble of the Day “Klay Thompson/Stephen Curry”

Bobble of the Day

Players: Klay Thompson Stephen Curry

Team: Golden State Warriors

Year: 2014

Manufacturer: Forever Collectibles 

This duel bobble came out when the Warriors won their most recent championship. It was the Klay and Curry show and they were nicknamed the “Splash Brothers”. All the finesse and high scoring as they were the talk of the NBA and I’m pretty sure an independent person had this custom bobble made of Klay and Steph.

I acquired this bobble recently via trade with a buddy out in Cali. For a duel bobble it’s pretty cool that depicts a lot of detail. The base is flashy with the yellow and blue colors and on the top of the base it reads, “Splash Brothers”. Curry and Thompson apparently have this pose in which their knees bend and the scream out of their lungs. I guess when your that good you can make faces like that. Curry looks like Curry but not so much Klay Thompson. Klay looks like he’s ready to take a big steaming dump. 

 

 

 

Sniper Rating: Overall, this is a well made bobblehead. 2 years ago this duel bobblehead was the talk of the town. Now, since KD came on to the scene, Klay has taken a backseat and is often forgotten in this dynamic offense. The quality is fantastic but the “Splash Brother’s” was a thing of the past. Steph and Klay score a 7.5.
