Year: 2002
Set: Fleer Genuine (Rate)
Card: #39 Mike Sweeney
“ Really not a fan of this design. The foil borders chipped so easily, breathing on them wrong could do it. (at least in basketball). I opened a box of the NBA set when new, and most of the cards came out of the packs chipped. Most of the cards have pieces of color from other cards permanently stuck to their backs as well. ” -Billy Kingsley
“ Early 2000s seem to be stuck in that Junk Wax Years 1990s trends. UM OK this looks like it is trying to be an imitation photographic slide in some ways. Don't know what the little squares are doing above is name, team name is in an odd position. The black border with random white lines doesn't cut it. OK the back...the sideways personal info/stats needs to be normalized. The back picture either made bigger or a head shot. Otherwise it is pretty good. ” -captkirk42
“ A whole lotta border going on with this card. Are those lines purposely not parallel to the card? I like having 2 pictures on one card. ” -Kaline6
“ A nice design for sure. Not much more I have to say. ” -DarkSide830
“ Enough with the black borders already! ” -NJdevils
“ Crocked card alert!!! ” -carthage44
“ This is either a really crooked scan, or a really bad card design. Sweeney was a solid player for a lot of years in KC, in a time when they didn't have too many solid players. ” -switzr1
“ Looks like another card I'll have to add to my wantlist. Not real sure on the design though. ” -jupiterhill
“ That's some bad cropping. ” -Young Kilo
