Random Card of the Day |
Thursday, February 12, 2015Set: 2013 Panini Cooperstown (Rate) “ Cool card. Vintage theme though modern. A player even I have heard of/know about. ” -Billy Kingsley
“ I guess MLB doesn't own the Negro League license... ” -jackal726
“ New card of a legend...still love it! ” -bkklaos
“ Negro League unis were some of the best. The color raglan sleeves, color belt loops, and pants numbers are all innovations not seen today. ” -jlaz10
“ Love the stories I've read about Paige! ” -Joshua825
“ Quick Quick!! We've run out of players somehow!! WE NEED TO RETRO IT!!! Honestly, all these retro sets... are they trying to educate young collectors on legends, or fill binders with worthless cards because they're replicas with no real appreciating value? That said... gonna look into this set and get educated... and fill a binder. COMPLETION COMPLETION!!!! ” -Dixxy
“ I liked these Cooperstown sets. Makes it possible to own a card of some of the HOFers that Topps doesn't generally use in their sets, without spending big bucks on their actual vintage cards. ” -switzr1

Wednesday, February 11, 2015Set: 1990 Donruss Best of the NL (Rate) “ So bad but so good! ” -carthage44
“ Never been a Cubs fan, but I always liked Shawon Dunston ” -jackal726
“ Worst back of card for a Major League set, worse than minor league sets. Good job on front photo. ” -NJdevils
“ Not a bad looking card for 1990. A little information under his stats, and we would be good. ” -engine614
“ I had so many 1990 Donruss it wasn't funny. But hardly ever saw this blue set for some reason.... ” -Joshua825
“ The script is way too small on this jersey. Make it taller and it's not half bad. ” -jlaz10
“ Shawn Dunston presents Baseball 101: "This is a baseball." ” -armac
“ Shaaaa-wahn! I watched him throw oh so many balls into the second row. Did a four year old girl play with crayons on the edges of this card? She should have used the big blank space on the back, instead. ” -Vvvergeer

Monday, February 9, 2015Set: 2002-03 Upper Deck Mask Collection (Rate) Card: #53 Chris Osgood / Garth Snow “ I don't get it. Is the B&W photo over his shoulder his backup, waiting for him to mess up so he can get in the game? Seems like an odd set concept. ” -switzr1
“ I just got my first cards from this set yesterday! (1/31, but that's still yesterday for me) Now I know that the wording isn't just poorly done, it's holofoil and doesn't scan with the intensity it has in hand. Not sure if I got this card or not, I'm on a bit of an overload, as I got so many hockey cards in the mail yesterday. Over 1000...still working on counting them! ” -Billy Kingsley
“ Nice subset,I especially like the commentary on the back. ” -uncaian
“ The Islanders had a string of unfortunate uniform looks through the '90s and '00s, but at least they kept the blue and orange in this sweater. ” -jlaz10
“ Ozzie with the Islanders. He looks all wrong without the winged wheel on his chest! (Nice card.) ” -vrooomed
“ OZZY!!!! I'm glad the Wings took him back ” -Howintensive
“ A set with some great value to it. One of the more creative UD sets from the early 2000's. ” -suomibear8
“ I forgot that Osgood went to the Isles. I generally like multi-player cards like this. ” -armac

Thursday, February 5, 2015Set: 1997 Playoff Absolute Beginnings - Chip Shots Black (Rate) “ Meh. Not a fan of poker. ” -Billy Kingsley
“ I love the oddball stuff. ” -SFC Temple
“ Poker chips/football cards! Yes and yes!!! ” -carthage44
“ What a bad concept. Openly promoting and associating gambling with football. Proof the hobby is no longer intended for kids. I can't believe the NFL and NFLPA approved this. ” -C2Cigars
“ Can't complain about creativity with inserts/parallels, other than not having any sleeves to properly showcase them. I guess I can complain after all! ” -jackal726
“ Looks like a puck, they should do that for hockey cards. How about exchange cards for players on pucks? That would be a tough set to display. ” -CluelessJoe
“ 'Cause nothing says football like Poker Chips. ” -jlaz10
“ With no 1997 Browns to collect I wasn't even aware these existed. I guess trying to get poker chips isn't that different than some of the other inserts I've seen. ” -armac
“ Poker Night! ” -JimStaub
“ Storage and/or display for these types of things is always challenging. Also a great indicator that kids are no longer a factor in the hobby. ” -Id8jlb8666

“ great design! ” -Billy Kingsley
“ "I can't believe I shook his frigging hand!" - Dino Ciccarelli, following the playoff series where Lemieux had smashed Kris Draper's face into the boards in front of the bench (Avs/Red Wings). ” -vrooomed
“ Did an excellent job when with the Devils. A fine player. ” -NJDevils
“ Actually got to meet Claude nice guy,nasty player. ” -uncaian
“ I had a "Screw Lemieux" t-shirt when I was a kid. ” -wax_house
“ Is it wrong that I prefer the "rough" card back with no picture? ” -SFC Temple
“ As much as I hate the Habs, I've got to love their sweaters. ” -jlaz10
