Well... that was a strange box indeed. Did you notice how a bunch of the packs contained cards that were sequentially numbered? The autos certainly aren't the greatest, nor are they low numbered, but I think it could have been worse (maybe). I really like that Dorsett relice, it's a thing of beauty, and you can't complain about pulling a relic of the guy in the NBA logo either. One could argue that Jerry West IS basketball itself. These cards are pretty nice looking, and the design is on the classy side. It was cool to get an Adrian Peterson card too, that's the first card of his that I've gotten. Overall this was a pretty fun box to break, and there were enough numbered cards for me to feel like I was doing ok
This wasn't a great break, by any stretch, but like I said earlier, it could have been worse (maybe). If you see anything you like, all cards are for trade.
Do you have a wantlist for anything other than 09 A&G? My grandpa saw Lovellette play at KU; he knows nothing about cards, but I still think that would make a damn fine birthday present for him.
ReplyDeleteNope, no want list, but I like shiny signed things. Make me an offer for it, and I'm sure we can work something out.
ReplyDeletehello Mr Dorsett... paging Tony Dorsett to the white courtesy telephone...
ReplyDeleteHey beardy, you know who wants the Berra, Ford, Reggie, and Larsen right?
ReplyDeleteSo many great names - Muggsy, Dick Butkus, Dolph Schayes, Rollie. Looks like you had a lot of fun.
ReplyDeleteI loved D.S.L. Im thinking about treating myself to a couple boxes for Xmas.
ReplyDeleteYou did good Bearded one.
There is a Joe firckin Montana gold auto floating around in a box somewhere. A Pete Rose as well.
Hey I need that kitty. Lets do a blockbuster for that Kershaw.
When ever your ready.

The Dorsett and the AD are really cool.
ReplyDeleteBut, what the hell is it with us and horse autos?
