No. I confess, it was a struggle just to obtain Brett after the start of the Forever Program. At the end of the Forever program, I might have enough stubs for McCutchen or Jackie Robinson, but that's it. And that's fine: mental note to myself: do not spend much in the way of actual money on the game.

I actually started playing Diamond Dynasty for the Show 21 last January - after the season was over. I then played through the whole season with the Show 22. After having both experiences, there is a big difference between swooping at the end of a season and playing a whole season. While inside a season, cards slowly increase in value, and this gives the opportunity to "flip" certain cards to get the player you want. Also, many of the players can be acquired without paying any stubs - simply by playing through the various programs. At the end of the season, it's different; there are a ton of cards to choose from, but much variation in price. Because of this, there are a ton of 99 rated cards that have come down in value from the regular season. This makes many cards "ripe for the picking," because they are available at a cheap price. However, many cards remain unobtainable, because of the price variation. These would be more obtainable during season play.

I.e., we are talking "apples and oranges" in some ways...
