New Blog Resolutions

I noticed a bunch of blogs doing a New Years Resolution and really liked the idea. Seeing as how this blog in only a few hours old I figured I would have my own take on the post and do "New Blog Resolutions".

1 - MAKE THIS BLOG LOOK GOOD - As I mentioned above this blog is only hours old but my goal is to make this blog look good. The first step is a new banner. If anyone is good at making banners or has any good ideas for me please let me know.

2- COMPLETE ONE SET OF CARDS - I know this sounds very simple and obtainable but seeing as how I have been away from the hobby I need to remain focused. When I am at the local card shop I find myself buying a different pack every time because I am eager to see what each set that I have missed  looks like.  

3 - HELP A FELLOW BLOGGER COMPLETE A SET - This one is self explanatory. I would love to help someone out by giving them the one card they are missing. 

4 - DEVELOP  REGULAR BLOG POSTS & POST THEM ON TIME - I have a few really good ideas for regular weekly posts so keep your eyes peeled!

5 - OBTAIN CERTAIN CARDS FROM PLAYERS I AM COLLECTING.  Later I will post who I collect and why but here are the cards I want to knock off my list this year. (Note cards pictured aren't the exact ones I'm looking for)

- Brent Burns auto card (#'d to 100 or less)

- 30 Roenick Cards I don't have (one must be signed)

- Mike Brown Young Guns (ideally #'d)

Hopefully by December 31st I can say I successfully completed my first batch of resolutions.

Who Is The Card Bored Collector?

Hello, I am the Card Bored Collector.

 I am man who started a blog about the thing I love to do, COLLECT! I was an avid collector of all sports cards from the age of 5 to 16 but took a 13 year hiatus from collecting sport cards to collect and play various types of card games. Those games started to bore me (hence the blog name, hockey cards don't bore me but the other types of cards I was collecting did!) and now I find myself back at my roots collecting hockey cards.

I have been a silent observer of many other sports-card blogs and figured it was time I started my own to participate in the community. I look forward to posting pack/box breaks, trading online to help others  complete sets and having the occasional random contest.

That is a little about me. I look forward to posting more content in the near future. Please bare with me while I learn how to operate this blog and if you see me subscribe to your blog roll please note that you were one of the motivating factors in my decision to start this blog and thank-you.
