Year: 1997-98

“ The only thing fine about this card is the protective film is still attached. Too busy on the front, the back actually looks a little better, but the stat line looks cheap. ” -Doc Floyd

“ The late 90's were a weird time for sports cards. If his background wasn't so dark I think this card would look pretty good but black and tan on brown is just too dismal. The back looks much better to me. ” -davidhandberry

“ reminds me of the old john madden miller lite commercials. major dislike of the card number location in the lower right ” -stchazjojo4kharvick

“ Nice crashing through the paper design. I do like some of the concepts and looks of many of Topps Finest sets but I don't like that they are all chrome. Many of these sets like this one appear dark to begin with and then when they get scanned they appear even darker. *Heavy Sigh* ” -captkirk42

“ I really liked the two years of Finest where they had the themes. This was the second of the two years, the first year had borders. I'm not sure which I like more. Unfortunately some are starting to turn green. Luckily the scan here has not turned yet. ” -Billy Kingsley

“ Unfamiliar with the Finest line. Not bad. ” -muskie027

“ Very nice Pacers card. I don't have it. I actually crossed Austin's path at the Indy airport once. So tall. ” -switzr1

Decent card but I never know whether or not to remove the protective film....

I always remove it and put the card in a penny sleeve, PapaG. Cards look so much better when they don't have words over people's faces. If it's my card, I'm going to enjoy it in all of its shiny glory!

-------------------------------

I'm going to reevaluate how I collect after the new year. It's just getting way too expensive for the new stuff. Sometimes I just want to buy a pack, not a whole box or even blaster.
