Motivational Wednesday

A dream without a plan is only a wish.

You can dream all you want. You can dream of a nice fancy car, a vacation home, countless money in the bank etc. If you don’t have a well thought out plan, your dream is only a wish. Dreaming is always good, but accompany it with a well devised plan and execute it for those dreams to come true!

Bobble of the Day “Mookie Betts”

Bobble of the Day

Player: Mookie Betts

Team: Lowell Spinners

Year: 2016

Manufacturer: Success Promotions

Mookie! Will he win the MVP like he should have last year? Yes! He got fucked by Trout but Trout’s team didn’t even sniff the playoffs. Without Mookie in the Sox’ lineup, they win 20 fewer games. 

So the Lowell Spinners came out with this beauty of an SGA last year. The base is fresh looking and has Mookie’s name in raised letters against a red trim. I love the home plate Success Promotions put on the base representing Mookie is at bat. The pants look dope as hell with the red pinstripe and matching white batting gloves. The Red Sox logo is on his left shoulder which is a nice added feature. 

 

 

Sniper Rating: Mookie is now the face of the franchise now that Big Papi retired and I would highly recommend starting to stock up on Mookie’s bobbles ASAP. He’s not even 24 years old and will destroy numbers that know one has seen before. He’s a fun, energetic player and this particular bobble needs to be front and center in your Curio. Mookie and his Spinners SGA score a 9.0.

P.S. The box is crazy detailed and has a nice attractive glossy coating! 

Motivational Tuesday

No gossip is worthy enough to involve yourself with.

People see this all the time and especially in the work environment. People chatter and spread rumors about others and you have to try your hardest not to get involved. At the end of the day it will either get you in trouble if your involved or flat out just waste your time. Focus your energy on productive tasks rather than hearing stupid shit that people say for the day to go by faster.

Bobble of the Day “Gary Carter”

Bobble of the Day 

Player: Gary Carter

Team: New York Mets

Year: 2013

Manufacturer: Forever Collectibles 

One could say this is in the category of “holy grails” as far as Mets bobbleheads are concerned. FOCO came out with these beauties back in 2013 and the Carters sold out pretty damn fast. I scored a case of them and just sold my last one for sale for well over $300.00 bones. For some reason these don’t pop up on Ebay to often. The Kid was an all time great and just a great guy overall. 

FOCO did not hold back on this one. The detail within this bobble is special as it commemorates the Mets winning the 1986 World Series. Gary is running to the mound in celebration with the old school pinstripe uniform which I love! The leg and chest protector cannot be designed any better. They are both royal blue with an orange trim around the perimeter. F#*&^ing incredible! I don’t know what goes on over in China when these are made, but the catcher’s mask is not cheaply made. Whoever molded and painted it needs to get a raise. It’s sturdy, thick and heavy. No cheap material on that particular piece. The base has the Mets logo with the World Series trophy right by Gary’s side. I love the blue trim on the front of the base with Gary’s name in white raised letters. Well done FOCO!

 

 

Sniper Rating: The hair and facial features on Carter are dead on point. The mouth opened with excellent detail of his teeth and let alone his curly hair coming out of the sides of the catcher’s helmet is precise. Of course The Kids Cooperstown Hall of Fame plaque sits against the back of the base and reads, “ Gary Edmund Carter” It states the teams he’s played for and some stats. 

There’s no doubt about it, Gary Carter’s well detailed bobble scores a stand up 10.0. This is right in front of my curio to display proudly. A Hall of Fame player and even a better person. RIP Gary Carter as we lost you to soon.

Motivational Monday

Double tap if you know someone who wants, wants wants, but complains ALL the time!

For the life of me, I cannot stand these people. They want a silver platter set up for them and everything given to them. They don’t want to work for it. They rather complain and bitch and moan. But what they choose not to realize is, NO ONE CARES. Nobody! Keep to yourself, continue to work hard, and never complain to other people because they won’t care once you walk away.
