K Cancer Contest

The Playoffs teams have all been revealed and a number of teams look to be built for a deep October run.

Kate Upton, Jennifer Lopez, and Emily Ratajkowski will all be appearing in October for my 4th Annual Save Second Base Event.

The question is...
Which of the team caps pictured will have pitchers throw more strikeouts?

Will the 3 headed monster lead by Kate Upton's husband, Justin Verlander, paired up with Gerrit Cole and Zack Greinke take down the opposition?

Will the great Yankees bullpen shut down batters as the Bronx Bombers slug their way to a 28th Championship?

Will it be
The Los Angeles Dodgers lead by future Hall of Famer Clayton Kershaw deliver a Hollywood picture and the Dodgers capture their first World Series Title since 1988?

OR
Could it be another team?
It will all play out in October and here is the prize.

The (Evil) Empire Strikes Back

October is National Breast Cancer Awareness month.  Visit the official site here.

Breast Cancer will be detected in one of eight women in the US each year.

It is the second leading cause of cancer death among women each year.

On average every 2 minutes a woman will be diagnosed with breast cancer and every 13 minutes one person will die from breast cancer.
There are currently 33 million breast cancer survivors in the USA.

It's important to support the research for cancer.  Breast Cancer is often associated with the color pink so I will be showing off some pink Cutch cards.

In addition, you can expect to see some boobs with each post.  Who doesn't love boobs?

So let's start with what we're hoping to save!

I have no idea who this is, but it certainly is an attention grabber....and it features a nice look at this month's prominent color.

The Yankees are on the brisk of elimination at their rival, the Boston Red Sox. While I don't like the "Evil Empire" I do enjoy the thought of two of my favorite Pirates in recent years (Neil Walker and Andrew McCutchen) having the chance to play deeper into the postseason.

Here are my top 5 women wearing Yankees hats to try and hope they can pull out a victory so that Cutch may chase his World Series ring.

1. Kate Upton

2. Jennifer Lopez

3. Minka Kelly

4. Christina Aguilera (how dare you betray the Burgh)

5. Selena Gomez


To the surprise of many fans, this isn't the first time that Cutch has worn pinstripes. During his rookie season with the Pittsburgh Pirates, Cutch would wear an alternate pinstripe uniform.

It can be seen on this 2009 Topps Update 1/1 Magenta Printing Plate. It's his rookie card.

I remember getting this plate from Sportlots for only $15 in 2010.  That was a massive coup for me.
