Random Card of the Day



Sunday, May 8, 2016

Year: 1987

Set: ProCards (Rate)

Card: #2107 Mike Macfarlane


“ ProCards was starting to get the hang of it. Back is still overly simple, but they had a clean design (both sides). The beginning of the raising of the bar for MiLB sets! ” -vrooomed

“ Was this card made in a snowstorm, while foggy, by someone with bad cataracts? This is a perfect example of why just using the raw, unedited scan is not a good thing. ” -Billy Kingsley

“ "REDDDDDD...SET! CHECK,CHECK....... OMAHAAAAAAAA!" ” -SFC Temple

“ Undoubtedly the best types of cards are minors cards of players that go on to become long time Major Leaguers. This is one example. To bad the cards themselves used to be quite plain. ” -DarkSide830

“ How could you say Omaha and not think of Peyton Manning? ” -carthage44

“ Solid player. I'm guessing he didn't spend much time in Omaha. ” -dilemma19

“ What a beautiful, washed out, poorly cropped, stock photo! ” -UKboogie

“ Nice late 1980s Minor League Card. ” -captkirk42

“ Nice card!!!! I love it. Will have to own this someday. ” -RoyalChief

While I appreciate the vigliance of the "Scan Police," keep in mind that some cards use inferior photography and printing.

VERY slow trading due to health problems. Not transferrable so safe to trade with, just moving is painful and can't always access the cards.

The Scan Police make me think of Cheap Trick...But yes, the scan police are starting to become a little overbearing around here.

He must be equally inept with a scanner, because the cards look pretty bad there, too.

Yes, it said State originally. Considering I've lived in NY state my entire life and have several family members who have been on the State Police force I thought it was funny. I know Dave's comment was meant as sarcasm but I thought it was funny and ran with it.
