Kendall has a few L’s of the week, one being he threw his back out. We wish him fast healing! His other L of the week is Nick Gonzales. Nick was one of Kendall’s first sports card investments and he will probably sell. Kendall’s win of the week was watching Cade Cowell on the Gold Cup Roster. Chad’s L of the week is Jazz Chisholm - he should’ve saved the $40 and not have sent them to PSA grading. Chad’s W of the week was his PSA submission that was sent and received back within 2 weeks! Stay tuned for the Show and Tell Card Show on Thursday for first pick on Chad’s cards that he got back from PSA. Paul’s L and W of the week are the same. PSA changed their grading levels. It’s an L because he had to change the submission and a W because it’s cheaper overall and less restrictions.
