Card: #93 Amani Toomer

“ It's not a tumor! ” -ShoTime

“ One of my favorite sets of all time. I have quite a few of the baseball cards and wish I had more. ” -davidhandberry

“ These are tough to scan but this is a great one. ” -carthage44

“ It’s not a Toomer! ” -sahal694

“ These really are the best die-cut cards of all-time. No contest. ” -mkaz80

“ I really like this one, especially if it is an insert. I didn't collect these, but the crown has a felt look, which is cool and in the crown it looks like threading. If it is, that is kind of neat. If it is just the effect of the card, it looks real cool and then it also was a great scan to pick up the effect. I like how you can see the sun shining on Amani and if you look close enough at his helmet, I think you can see a reflection of the sky. ” -muskie027

“ OK I will try to stay positive. I am not a big fan of the crown shaped die-cuts of Crown Royale. I am just tired of them. They spoil any good feelings I have for die-cut cards. Sorry for being negative on this, but these cards and this shape is I will say my "last liked" die-cut shape. They are distinctive so you know what they are right off I guess that is a good thing right? ” -captkirk42

“ "Its not a toomer!" -- Sylvester Stallone (First Blood) ” -parsley24

“ Why is it every time I see this guy's name I try to do an Arnold Schwarzenegger impersonation... ” -rmitchell6700

“ Another one of mine!!! Yeah! Leading Giants receiver of all time. Unsung hero. I always liked Crown Royale. At least they were trying. Hate the parallels. ” -cjjt

“ Love these cards ” -biggiofn7

I love the fact that 3 people made the same joke. For the record, I would have too if I saw the card

I have always loved the Crown Royale sets and this one especially. Most Crown Royale cards look so good in-hand that I don't really care about missing stats. Even when Panini started making them a few years ago, they still looked great. I have been begging for a NASCAR release of this brand ever since Panini got licenses to make NASCAR cards. I hope it happens soon!

I agree with CaptKirk42. These are a child's valentine's card or birthday cards not sportscards.

Being a fan of the non-standard, unusual, different, non-conforming, I guess I would consider this card a "goodie". Only have one remotely similar being a Doug Gilmour Hockey Card of Crown Royale.

This may be off the beaten path here, but wasn't the phrase "It's not a toomer" from Kindergarten Cop" said by Arnold, and not by Stalone in First Blood. ------------------------------- Manny

Seems like the Kindergarten Cop reference was the basis for Chris Bermans catch phrase for Toomer from what I remember. deporcoruña wrote: This may be off the beaten path here, but wasn't the phrase "It's not a toomer" from Kindergarten Cop" said by Arnold, and not by Stalone in First Blood.

Yes, Schwarzenegger singing "It's Not a Tumor" to the tune of Bananarama's "I Heard a Rumour" tops my list of songs I made-up that I wish really existed. deporcoruña wrote: This may be off the beaten path here, but wasn't the phrase "It's not a toomer" from Kindergarten Cop" said by Arnold, and not by Stalone in First Blood.

That's solid work. Might not compete with the greatest of all time, but it's up there. What does your Greatest Hits List look like if this is the top of your list?
