That era will soon be over. Major League Baseball and the Major League Baseball Players Association are ending their licensing agreement with Topps in favor of a deal with Fanatics.... What are your thoughts ???? ------------------------------- Collecting cards for over 50 years..

Topps could always go the Triple Play route. I have never really liked any of the cards without team logos. No matter how fancy they are they seem generic to me.

They're losing both the team and player license. Unless they want to release cards with no team logos and no player names, they don't really have an option. ravenfaith77 wrote: Topps could always go the Triple Play route.
