[thehamiltonian]

Any interest in trading the Hamilton / Young?

Congrats on the tag!

Is it me or am I the only one that would prefer a nice single-swatch jersey card over a 4-8 swatch card?

Awesome break! Nice Mauer! Michael Young looks stoned in his picture.. :lol:

 

[Russ S.]

Nice Mauer! Congrats.

If you decide to move the Ripken (O's/Sox) GU card, I'd be interested.

Exactly what I was thinking.

And if I'm a Red Sox fan, the Red Sox/Orioles card is absolutely sick, but I don't want my rival team on the other side. 3 swatches would have done it.

Nice, this product looks 10 times better than last year.

So does Curtis Granderson.

Considering most of them look just plain to me I agree.

OP nice stuff there and the Mauer very nice.

Kerry Wood and Nick Swisher don't belong anywhere on any card with the text "emerging stars."

It's just you. If there are going to give us a plain swatch jersey card, give me 4-8 swatches.

Out of the two boxes that I opened, the one thing that I did not like, was that there were a number of cards where all I had was white swatches. I think that they could of done a better job on that. However, the cards that werent all white swatches, were really nice. I still have more scanning to do, but work and having a kid, time is at a premimum when it comes to scanning. I hope I can get more up by the end of the week. The only other thing that I did not like was having player wearing one uniform while the team listed is another. I got an Aaron Rowand swatch auto, but it has him in a Whitesox uniform and the card has him listed with the giants. Just a little odd.

Why Upper Deck feels the need to imply importance to a card by slapping a silly hologram tag to "standard" cards like these I'll never understand.

Then again, if I was a Nick Swisher fan, I'd be extremely annoyed at the placement of the sticker.

Only the dual sided cards have the holograms, to match the COAs.

I understand that, what I do not understand is why Upper Deck feels the need to slap an ugly sticker (and moronic COA) and attach it to a $10 jersey card. They don't do it for a $40 Derek Jeter patch card, so why do it for this?

I'd rather have a single swatch from one player that I collect than 6 swatches, with one of them being a player I collect. As a player collector, I think adding other players just detracts from the card . I especially hate that many of the players on these multi swatch cards have very little connection. I wouldn't mind if they were all on the same team, but some of the combos just dont make any sense.

Love how clean that Beckham auto card looks......
