Year: 1990-91
Set: Fleer (Rate)
Card: #191 Ledell Eackles
“ I miss the Bullets. Changed to the Wizards for 1997-98 because it was deemed a poor name due to the high number of shootings in Washington. The name actually came from high-speed trains. ” -Billy Kingsley
“ The design brings me back to when I got into collecting, around 1989or 1990. Love those short shorts! ” -olerud363
“ Those shorts are BANGIN'! ” -carthage44
“ He was an alright NBA player and he had two sons play college ball, overall a fun card of the day ” -JoshReese92099
“ Nice basic Fleer Basketball set. My homie Bullets a big plus in the RCotD game. ” -captkirk42
“ The least flashy of the three major basketball releases of 1990-91, and it's grown on me. The basic design stands the test of time and the card stock used is sturdier than its counterparts from Skybox and Hoops. ” -Sportzcommish
“ Nice card ” -Bargunmaster
“ Wow! '90 Fleer basketball was just as bland as their baseball issue. ” -dilemma19
“ I have a few of these. I really liked this set when it came out, now it looks a tad boring, but still holds a classic look. A little too much wasted space at the bottom. Classic Fleer back. Very mediocre. Nice to see a Bullet, since that name no longer exists. Not sure they needed to change their name. I know it was because of gun violence, but really? There are worse names out there in terms of negative publicity. I am not offering an opinion of which team names should stay or not, I am just saying, Bullets didn't seem so bad. ” -muskie027
