2017 Panini Father's Day Multi-Sport Forum

Doing some more team checking here. In the "Expansion" set, there are two that are not verified.

1) Shawn Michaels is a wrestler. This is going to sound like a very stupid question, but wrestlers do not have teams, correct? I've never been a big wrestling guy myself so I wouldn't know for sure, but I did list his card as "No Team", due to the fact that his 2017 Topps Heritage wrestling card had "No Team"

2) Card #KB is listed as Kyle Busch, but the card on COMC with that number is his brother Kurt. The only place that I can find this card referencing Kyle Busch is on Beckett's checklist, and we all know how that goes. eBay and a multitude of other sites that are selling the card list it as Kurt. That being said, I'm 99% certain this is a wrong name; is this an Admin fix, or should I just switch the PID linked to the card?

As always, thanks in advance.

No Team is correct for the Wrestler.

I'd say change KB to Kurt. You can do that, right?

Yup, no problem. Just wanted to make sure that the correct way to do it was to go into it and edit it. Thanks Dan!

If you have visual evidence that our checklist ois incorrect, by all means, fix it. I rely more on COMC than Beckett when it comes to that, simply because COMC has created their checklists purely off actually seeing the cards (or users seeing the cards). Beckett gets a lot of their info from the manufacturer, which can sometimes be inaccurate (or always in Panini's case).

That's what I figured. I usually use COMC, and rarely Beckett, for the same reasons you mentioned: I'd much rather see the card as physical proof than trust a typed-out checklist that has shown to be problematic in the past (Beckett, Panini, etc).

I will check eBay as well, especially on new sets. 

When verifying teams, I have a couple of tabs open, and it's the order that I use:

1) COMC. This is first because a) the images are easy to read, plus have front/back and b) more importantly, it's much easier to search.

2) eBay. Second stop, especially for newer releases. Not as easy to search and sort, but still plenty of results.

3) Google Images. If someone is showing a card off on their blog or photo gallery and it's not for sale, it will still sometimes turn up on Google Images.

I don't know of any other resources. Beckett I don't fully trust, although I've been able to find images through them sometimes. When it comes to baseball, baseballcardpedia is a fun resource but isn't entirely accurate all of the time. So usually I leave them be if I can't find an image through any of the three sources I use, figuring I'll come back to it when I get a new resource or someone else with more knowledge would be better suited to tackle it.

Ooh, I never thought to check Google images. Good idea!
