Scan the super.

This case is already better than the last one.

Case 9 Box 1:

Veterans

No parallels

Prospects

Xfractor: Anthony Varvaro

Lars Anderson

Good start, what is that your 3rd Lars?

Yeah, I think that's my 3rd base and also have the Gold Refractor. Probably my favorite player from this set, I could see his cards approaching Longoria levels if he does well with the Red Sox.

Great box to get things back on track a bit.

Re: 2008 Bowman Chrome 11 Case Break

I was about to buy another case of 08 BC, but seeing most of the cases you broke I think I'm gonna pass.

In my 1st case I pulled:

Lars base
Beltre base
Cunningham ref
Lambo X-frac
Brackman Blue-ref
& 5 other decent autos(some being parallels), and 2 "no-name" prospects

I pulled a prospect blue-ref, Orange-ref, and a Carl Crawford red-ref. Never pulled a super, but the Crawford was the 3rd red I've pulled since 2006, and the first veteran red-ref

OT: This is my 1,000th post on FCB! I'm going to hold some contests tomorrow with some great giveaways. Tune in!

I'm actually very pleased with the breaks so far and they've been better than I expected. Over 9 cases now, I've had a lot of big hits (Lars Gold Ref, A-Jax and Villalona Blue Ref, Longoria/Price Xfractor /50, Longoria Gold Ref, 2-Carlos Santana Blue Ref's). There have been a few duds, and that is the problem with this product, but there are still a lot of nice hits in the product.
