Big L…! Not saying G. Brett was not a heck of a ball player… simply stating he isn’t COLLECTION worthy! They should be “end game” caliber players/names or close to it for the investment needed (locking in all those cards)!! He is one of a hundred Legend/Flashback players that fit this “good but not LEGEND” category! Simply my opinion…! For those that love him… great! Go for it…

Horrible! Guy(s) gets drafted and already has a way better card than 7/8ths of established players (e.g. those that have been playing day in/out for years potentially)! Complete disrespect for those players that have been paying their dues for years! Just like Tops Now… Wow, guy gets first hit in the majors… let’s give him a 95! While guys that have been playing for a bit get to enjoy their bronze/common card all season!

I understand it keeps things interesting, I suppose… I just think they should have to prove a bit more before they’re elevated to superstar status!

Anything short of exactly how they released the program in the past 2-3 game playing seasons will be a huge letdown for me personally as in each of the last few seasons, some great WC, DS, etc. cards were released and those of you that had teams in the playoffs, got some nice cards to play with towards the end of the season! Shoot, I would probably still be using A. RILEY and Rosario’s 2021 post-season cards if I had them in 2022!

Just belly-aching cause SEA is finally in and I’d love to see a couple “closer to end game cards available” other than the standard Griffey talk, etc… Did get Randy this season… but only about a 3rd of the season though cause by then there were already Tops Now cards w/ similar playing card attributes (Hits p/9, velo, etc)… that’s another soap box for another thread though!

Never mind, Completely disrespectful! Randy may have been one of the most feared SPs to ever play the game… but, hey, why not give this 3rd year guy a comparable boosted card because he put his socks on the right foot this game… joking, but you get the point! Guy goes 5 shutout innings in a debut w/ 6 Ks and he magically gets a card that matches some of the games best!!! Change this please!!! LEGENDS ARE EXACTLY THAT… treat them as such please! I mean honestly, outside of an A. Judge… there probably shouldn’t be too many current players w/ 99!?!? Debatable I know, but simply making a point…

Sorry, way too long!!!!

Agree w/ most here… at the time I didn’t like it (which doesn’t mean squat to Scott), but if Ray had succeeded, I would have simply thought HOW AESOME IS IT THAT WE (the Ms, but as fans we like to include ourselves ) JUST PULLED OFF AN UPSET WIN IN HOUSTON! More so than thinking about it being a genius move…

But, I suppose, as a fan, all I can pray for now is SEA isn’t completely shell shocked after all this and performs over the next 3 games!!

I’ll end on another sour, yet similar call… “just run Marshawn”!!! 🤪
