Random Card of the Day |
Thursday, February 28, 2013Set: 1997 Topps Gallery (Rate) “ Is this a card with a picture of the guy signing a card? lol ” -Billy Kingsley
“ When Topps began making Gallery, they weren't as acquainted with separate sets as they are today. If Topps brought Gallery back it would be much better than it originally was. ” -jlaz10
“ The Big Hurt. Back in the 90's there was no one hotter than Frank, no one! ” -cynicalbuddha
“ My favorite baseball player of all-time! He better be a first ballot Hall of Famer. He never took any performance enhancing drugs and he was such a great athlete that at Auburn he had to make the choice whether to play professional baseball or football. I would have loved to see the "Big Hurt" strap on the pads, he made the right choice. ” -carthage44
“ He using one of those Tide to Go sticks? ” -Hollywood42
“ I never liked the "puffy" feeling of these cards. ” -sascards67
“ Looks like Frank is trying to sign his own jersey while he's still wearing it. ” -PDIZZLE

Wednesday, February 27, 2013Set: 2010 Bowman - Gold (Rate) “ Why are there so many baseball teams named after socks? I don't normally name things after my socks. (Nor do I name my socks themselves!) ” -Billy Kingsley
“ Bowman... pass, next. ” -carthage44
“ I liked how rookies had a green border and everyone else had a red border. ” -jlaz10
“ Not a photographer here, so I guess I have that in common with the guy who took this picture. ” -NJDevils
“ Bowman Gold definetly does not work with the green in there ” -Hollywood42
“ Pretty serious game of backyard ball! ” -SFC Temple
“ The gold cards are completely not necessary. Bowman has lost appeal to me in general. ” -sascards67

Monday, February 25, 2013Set: 2000-01 O-Pee-Chee (Rate) “ I don't remember the backstory behind O-Pee-Chee, but this is a good design for this set. ” -Billy Kingsley
“ Doesn't look anything like his brother Sam... ” -SaveDaKid
“ One of my favourite players,one of my least favourite opc/topps sets.Ugly design! ” -uncaian
“ You don't need to say O-Pee-Chee 10 times on the side if you already have the logo in the corner. ” -jlaz10
“ Definitely not Topps best design. I think I bought 1 pack and I was really into hockey back then because the Thrashers were new. ” -sascards67

Sunday, February 24, 2013Set: 2009 Upper Deck First Edition (Rate) “ I never quite figured out why the card companies thought that issuing sets that are essentially paralells to the main issue with only slight changes was a good idea. The UD First Editons are at least significantly different, some of the Topps issues the only difference was a small silver foil logo. ” -Billy Kingsley
“ These 'First Edition' cards still make me think they are a parallel. Upper deck with their seventy five releases, all with the same picture... ” -SFC Temple
“ I always like First Edition because it didn't have any foil (except for the Upper Deck hologram on the back). ” -jlaz10
“ Nomar, one of the greats...But why doesn't he turn around and tag the guy that appears to be 3 feet away from him? ” -Hollywood42
“ Yes, 'First Edition'. First Edition of what? What a waste of card space. Would have been a decent card without that gold strip up the left side. ” -NJDevils
“ First edition cards mean nothing to me. Please go away. ” -carthage44

Saturday, February 23, 2013Set: 1991 All World CFL (Rate) “ Solid blue border = OK. Striped blue border = what were they thinking? ” -sascards67
“ I actually have some of these cards. Sad thing is, I don't know how or when I got them. ” -yokonashiwa
“ The Canadian Football League is where former NFL players can extend their careers. ” -carthage44
“ Ahhhh... The Raghib Ismail Set. I remember wasting plenty of money to get these. If nothing else, thanks for the flashback! ” -SFC Temple
“ Bleh ” -Hollywood42
“ I don't think the Canadians even bought this set. Nice way to make the name and team illegible, run more lines through it. ” -NJDevils
“ If All World was allowed to use CFL logos, why aren't they only saying Saskatchewan? ” -jlaz10
“ Yay a CFL card! I wish CFL cards were more mainstream across Canada. ” -DanD
“ Cool background, but the red letters seem slightly hard to read. ” -Billy Kingsley

Thursday, February 21, 2013Set: 2001 Upper Deck Gold Glove (Rate) “ One of the many late 90's early 00's where the picture was secondary to the design. It's looks like Bobby is getting pushed off of the card. ” -sascards67
“ This is the time when Upper Deck starting coming out with about 30 different sets each year. I do kinda like this one with the glove border. ” -carthage44
“ Nice card. Like the glove design for the name. ” -yokonashiwa
“ The book theme is kind of interesting...probably would have worked better with a Record Book theme than Golden Glove, but it's not a bad card at all. ” -Billy Kingsley
“ Next time, try to take up two-thirds of the card with the name banner instead of a measly one-third. ” -NJDevils
“ The way his glove and eyes are positioned make it look like he over ran the ball. ” -jlaz10

Wednesday, February 20, 2013Set: 1987-88 O-Pee-Chee (Rate) “ He looks like he's saying 'aww man, why'd you have to go and take this picture' ” -Billy Kingsley
“ I do not collect hockey cards but this is a nice card. ” -carthage44
“ Bernie looks quite displeased with something, maybe his last shift, perhaps the officiating or it could be the photographer. At any rate, a great card of a great Hall of Famer. ” -Gunny
“ Now THAT is a retro jersey! ” -suomibear8
“ One of the shining lights for the Blues in the "80s,this is one of my favourite sets. ” -uncaian
“ I have this card and laughed when I first opened the pack and saw it. Good natural look, no posing for Bernie. Just trying to figure out if he took a puck to the neck or the coach was benching him. We'll never know. ” -NJDevils
“ Aww mom!! I'll clean my room in the offseason! ” -DanD

Tuesday, February 19, 2013Set: 1970-71 Esso Power Players (Rate) “ Serial numbered 70/71. WOW, nice, LOL! ” -carthage44
“ When I was getting into cards, it wasn't always easy to figure out when some cards came out. Somebody getting this card wouldn't have had that problem! ” -Billy Kingsley
“ Wow 'Cowboy' Bill Flett !! I don't think I've ever seen a picture of him without the beard ! Cool. ” -uncaian
“ Cowboy Flett. I remember him mainly with the Flyers probably because he won a Stanley Cup there though he only spent a little over 2 seasons with them. Didnt know he had passed away. Sad. ” -NJDevils
“ I like how the names really small AND THE YEAR IS REALLY BIG!!! ” -jlaz10
“ Ah! The purple and yellow old unnies. ” -deporcoruña
“ The really want you to know what year this was from and everything else seems secondary. Good shot of the classic Kings logo though. ” -sascards67
