I like this thread every year. And my goals are usually similar.

1 - Complete Topps Base and Update sets, including selected insert sets. I will not be doing the gold set this year. That was a one shot deal to celebrate my 40th straight Topps set.

2 - Possibly Complete Topps Heritage, A & G and Heritage Update sets. Not sure if I am going to do these this year or not.

3 - The one I usually fail on every year - GET ORGANIZED

4 - Add to my Red Sox GU and Auto collection. Not going to set specific targets this time around.

Thanks,

Jeff

1 - Series 1 is done. Just looking for one more insert that I want
2 - I have not started Heritage and am thinking I wont be. Have had a couple of opportunities to buy Sox tix and put money towards that instead.
3 - Still not there.
4 - Have added a few so working on it.

Thanks,

Jeff

This years goals for me will be quite modest...

1) Complete my Red Sox inventory (Yes...it's still a work in progress)
2) Hit 20,000 different Red Sox cards (current count 18,834)
3) Hit 2500 posts to move up to the next HOF level.
Scott

Well, what do you know....focusing on goal #1, led to hitting goal #2! I have hit 20,000 different Red Sox, Yahoo! Now there are only 50-60,000 left to get!

[LWMM]

greatdadx2, how about creating your own thread to focus on your updates? Considering that the last 2+ pages are yours, it might make sense to instead have a thread specifically devoted to them.

Cut down on the players I collect.

Just try to focus on: Josh Johnson, Dennis Northcutt, Josh McCown & Gino Guidugli and sell whatever else I can.

As for Johnson, I'd like to get a Superfractor, his '06 Bowman Sterling Red Refractor and his '06 Ultimate Dual MLB Logo with Joel Zumaya.

Haven't seen any of the 3 cards I mentioned, but I have acquired:

'06 Bowman Draft Red 1/1
'06 Ultimate Five Auto w/Uggla, Hanley, Miggy & Willingham /15
'06 Ultimate Patch Auto /10
'07 Bowman Red 1/1
'09 Bowman Chrome Red Refractor /5
'10 Finest Plate Black 1/1

These are mine:

Top 100 Lou Gehrig game used cards
Pick up a Pre-War HoF auto
Purchase an actual game used jersey
Complete my modern base set want list
Track down that elusive 2001 SP Legendary Cuts Babe Ruth jersey
Lastly, finish at least one vintage set (1960, 1963, 1968 are probably the closest to completion)

Dewayne

So far I have knocked off the 100 Gehrig GU cards and getting an actual game used jersey. I hope to pick up the pre-war auto next as it seems the most attainable of the rest of my goals.

Take care,
Dewayne

I have 6 GU sets I would love to complete. I need so few cards for each set yet seems impossible to attain. These are the numbers cards to complete my sets 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 22. It has been a uphill battle to find these cards. But I will keep hunting until I shot them down.
