Topps is Officially Dead To Me

Well... almost. I'm definitely EXTREMELY pissed off at them right now, and when I type EXTREME in all caps, I mean business.

Today I got home from work to find an envelope from Duryea, PA waiting for me on our kitchen table. This is normally a great thing to come home to, and I am waiting on about 5 redemptions from Topps, so this could have been anything right?

WRONG! What it was is an absolute fucking disaster, and something I may never forgive Topps for.

More information to follow tomorrow. For now, I have emailed Clay Luraschi, the brand manager for Topps, and am awaiting his response.

I'll give you a hint, and that hint is "meow".

  2. interested to see what this is??? At first I thought it had to do with your etymology... then I realized that was UD... so now I am clueless

  3. I hope you did slightly better than the guy who had his Osterman card replaced with a Corey Patterson bat card. If you did as well, I'm so sorry!

  7. Join the club. '09 Topps is still officially banished from my site after the black border bait & switch. Which makes things tough since I bought a pack of U&H in a moment of weakness and pulled a Tommy Hanson rookie.

    Maybe you could make lemonade out of Topps lemons and hold a contest and have people guess what horrible useless replacement card you got instead. My guess: Eric Gagne bat card.
