Default Facebook groups for Basketball cards???

Hey guys -

Love blowout but the Basketball crowd seems to be getting smaller and smaller...

Anyone have any leads of Facebook groups or other areas where basketball is the main focus???

Thanks in advance.

Well.... I think it's an extremely bad idea when it comes to cards, because there are too many wackos out there, and mixing your Facebook with random dudes in the hobby is a recipe for disaster.

I think the BO community is doing just fine.

I am looking to talk to more people about basketball cards.... the amount of people on here who do basketball is very minimal.

Since you haven't been a member here long... I won't hold it against you... but in the last 3 years this site has exploded.... with people who just want to buy and flip.

The amount of sports card talk here is nothing compared to what it used to be.

too bad its not as good as it used to be but I would not call it minimal. you want to see minimal head to some other forums with the exception of maybe beckett this place has the most traffic that I have found.

I for one like it a lot

What is sports card collecting without buying and selling???Is that not what it is all about??

Ive recently joined some FB groups focusing on BKB cards and there are way more buy/sell there than card related discussions. this forum still has the most hobby talk that ive seen at present.
