Art Deco inspired custom football card design
Take the 1972 Topps baseball design and apply the black borders from the 1971 baseball set and you would end up with something close to this. Nifty. Will likely see this in a 2021 Heritage baseball parallel set. -

2012 totally Cerified Gold Patch Set: all be Stephen Hill
Stephen Hill might not have even signed his cards. Panini recently sent me some replacements since Hill hasn't signed some of his redemptions in two years. Worked out a little for me as he has thus far busted. -

AP - "I want to be the best ever"
AP is already one of the best pure rushers in history but I don't think I'd ever call him the best RB. His blocking is piss-poor leaving him off the field during a lot of critical 3rd and 4th downs. He's also not much of a receiver though Brett Favre did elevate that portion of the game for him... -

2014 NFL Draft review, Who's your sleeper picks?
Agree on West. Stud in the making. I'll add Jeremy Hill. This LSU headcase is a 230 pound wrecking ball who will do plenty of damage if he keeps his head out of his ass. No shock Cinci took another guy with character concerns. Good landing place though providing the thunder to Bernard's... -

What Super Bowl outcome would help your cards?
Wilson >>>>>> Flacco. I'm a big Packers fan but Wilson, for me, is the most exciting QB in the NFL. I love how fluid he is when the pocket breaks down. He won't blow you away in the stats department but the guy just makes play after play. I only remember one awful pass all night and that one had... -

What Super Bowl outcome would help your cards?
I have a lot of low end Russell Wilson cards along with some Richard Sherman stuff all waiting for BGS attention. Not nearly as much Denver stuff so a Seattle win would help my card values more. -

Johnny Manziel: Yea? or Nay? Your thoughts? with Poll...
I think Manziel is a ****** bag but I can separate that from his on-field leadership and ability. Mike Evans looks like a potential first rounder and should make a team very happy in the long run. His height alone will make ample plays but he needs to clean up his routes so he's not consistently... -

Johnny Manziel: Yea? or Nay? Your thoughts? with Poll...
There is your pure pocket passer like Tom Brady or Peyton Manning then you have Elway, Young, and Rodgers who all have trophies and routinely used legs. I could throw Roethlisberger in there but his rushes are rarely by design. You don't need to be a pocket statue to bring home Lombardi. -

Johnny Manziel: Yea? or Nay? Your thoughts? with Poll...
Colin Kaepernick, Russell Wilson, Brett Favre, Fran Tarkenton, among others will beg to differ. Manziel proved he can make accurate throws in the pocket this year while still making plays with his feet. Johnny was averaging 58 yards per game on the ground, so, while scrambling was part of his... -

Johnny Manziel: Yea? or Nay? Your thoughts? with Poll...
He seems to have the "it" factor should he keep his head out of his arse. QBs like Brees and Wilson have proved you can be successful on the short end of the stick. -

Top Rookies of 2013
Lacy and Bernard for RBs. Patterson at WR. The jury is still out on the QB class but Geno Smith has shown flashes at times. -

FCB NFL FOOTBALL WEEK 11 THREAD
I actually heard of this guy while he was at WKU along with the team getting robbed of a bowl bid. I picked up some of his cards last year when Baltimore picked him up as an UFA. When it looked like he would not get a chance I ended up selling the cards at a small loss. Oops. Rookie autos that... -

Demaryius Thomas card values, I don't get it.
Wide receivers don't get as much hobby love as QBs and RBs but they can still explode. Perhaps the best example is Mr. Salsa Dance where autographs were up 2000% at one point. There is also no shortage of buyers for Calvin Johnson. I'm not sure why Thomas doesn't generate a lot of buzz... -

Block this bidder for your sanity
Likewise. While not at critical mass, there is an increasing number of speculative football card eBay members who place a bid and then choose to pay based on the player's performance the following game or based on the buyer's ability to flip the card elsewhere. I even had one member not pay...
