Ummmm, well its the National Basketball Association. Quit licking the adhesive on the back of those stickers. Everyone knows it will kill your brain cells.

The same thing was basically already posted, but that was a much better in-depth read. The other post did not really fill me in on the details, but that one really provided me with what was going on. You have been thanked Andrew

I think Beefy should do another podcast with Scott if he can fill us in just how this acquisition will affect their baseball card manufacturing process.

And should be mentioned in the first post before any of the copied and pasted text; as should all sources be cited when information is taken verbatim.

I've been involved in a few mergers and acquisitions in my day, though they've been in the banking industry.

What I can tell you is that there is a lot of work to be done before anyone can accurately comment on how this will affect their baseball card manufacturing process, if at all.

This stuff isn't figured out until after the deal is consumated. It's probably business as usual until told otherwise.

Having said that, this is great news for the hobby. Donruss has consistently produced top-shelf baseball, football and entertainment products the past eight years and now their signature brands will undoubtedly be rolled out in the NBA trading card arena.

I've always maintained that while UD produced great NBA-themed products, had Donruss had the chance to apply their magic to an NBA-licensed set, it would be lights out for UD (and Topps, but that goes without saying).

Congratulations to Panini and Donruss. This signals that all is not lost in the trading card industry and there are big-time spenders behind the scenes who still believe in the fabric of America's collecting pastime - trading cards.

Panini EEE

that's a lot of "E" sounds in a row.

one would hope that they would maintain the donruss or upper deck brand

Yes and no - while the prestige and name recognition that comes with the two established brands are nice - a streamlined brand for their releases in NBA and potentially MLB and NFL would probably help their marketing.

I believe Panini put out European versions of Upper Deck basketball in like 1992?

In the future, if someone cut and pastes my blog posts verbatim, I would appreciate it if they could acknowledge the source of the information. Thank you to those who corrected this error.

Prusha is not going to say a word until his new European taskmasters let him. He is going to sit at his desk with his new tie and mind his p's and q's.

Hopefully we get some more news in the upcoming days. I will extend an invite to Scott, but completely understand that it will take a bit for it to be spoken about.
