It's been a good run -- took almost the whole month of December -- but the BIG PILE is finally over.
Captain Canuck rounded us out. He managed to sneak in TEN steals (one from everyone except Dawgbones), grab a handful of Braves...and move ol' Jack Billingham one last time.
His picks:
| B37 | Dale Murphy | Canuck | Locked |
| B129 | Carl Warwick | Canuck | Locked |
| F22 | Brett Favre | Canuck | Locked |
| B59 | Jack Billingham | Canuck | Stealable |
| B60 | Dave Concepcion | Canuck | Stealable |
| B224 | Jacoby Ellsbury | Canuck | Stealable |
| B308 | Felix Hernandez | Canuck | Stealable |
| F8 | Tom Brady | Canuck | Stealable |
| F19 | Tony Dorsett | Canuck | Stealable |

What have I learned about you guys? You like the vintage stuff, the Royals and Red Sox, ...and REALLY REALLY hate the NBA (and Juan Gonzalez, and Derrek Lee, and Vlad Guerrero, and Gary Sheffield, and Andre Dawson). :-) You like stealing, but hate being stolen from. :-)
But I've learned that you really like
random assortments of cards. So, as my additional gift to you, each of the 12 winners can draw from the remaining Big Pile until your total is 30 cards (i.e, if you have 17 now, draw 13 more). Post your picks in the comments below so it's public knowledge (no emails)...no more stealing...first come-first served!* Any leftovers after that will go back in my trade-box, even though it's obvious nobody wants them. :-)
*(the 2 golf cards will go to EricL as part of his golf collection)
This has been a ton of fun -- hope you enjoyed it!
Here's what's still available...and check the comments below to make sure what you want isn't already taken. You can make trades amongst yourselves, too, if there's anything you didn't get that you really want.
