2009 Bowman Chrome is live, something that I have been waiting for a long time. I really like the design this year, and I think that as long as things look the way they did from the original set, this could be as good as Topps Chrome was.I also see that they are using a weird almost...

I just received some of the National Treasures images posted by Panini from a member over on FCB. Sadly, Panini has taken a product that once looked elegant and clean, and turned it into a high end version of Donruss Threads. Panini lovers will love this new direction, but to me, it...

Recently, Tuff Stuff has taken it upon themselves to go over what readers think is wrong with the hobby and to look for possible solutions. I think its a bold step, but in my opinion, a generally horrible idea in this format. First, the average reader has no ******* clue as to what...

For this week, I missed most of the action from being in San Diego for work, but after going through each game, looks like the rookies had a good week. Too bad my Vikings did not. Regardless, we also had a debut we had waited almost half a season for, and a few performances that impressed...

Back in 2006, there was about as much demand for a high end baseball product as there is now for another version of Topps Moments and Milestones. So, instead of producing a standalone product to meet the small demand of a hobby geared more towards traditional collecting, UD produced...

I do think that after seeing these pics, National Treasures has gained some potential. Yet, despite a good preview, there are enough questions dogging Panini that im pretty sure its going to end up like all the other products they have crapped out this year. They posted some preview...

To me, triple threads is that dreaded **** after a night of Mexican food. You know its coming, you prepare yourself for the pain, but in the end, it gets you all the same. This year is no different, and really, its says a lot about what Topps thinks about the collecting base. What...

Last year, I really like SP Rookie Threads' theme of having cards that looked like they were sewn together like patches. However, the product still had an absolutely ridiculous price point at over 200 dollars. This year, the configuration has changed, the price has changed, and...

Let me say this straight out. Just because I havent posted on the blatantly fake rookie premiere autos in a while, does not mean they have gone away. If anything, Burge and company have gotten better at them. Practice makes perfect right? Although there are still close to 200 of each...

I am one of the people who thinks 09-10 Exquisite is an amazing product due to the cards you can pull. Although the box breaks have been craptacular for people who have risked their money, some of the cards are absolutely ridiculous. Thems the breaks, literally. One of the FCB users...

After seeing the preview for Donruss Certified, I could not believe how much of a cop out Panini had gone with in terms of the design. They had basically taken the 2008 design (which wasn’t good to begin with) and updated it with minor tweaks. Now that I am seeing the finished product...

The first of the Favre autos is up right now, and the seller wants a shitload. So, Panini gets the first shot in, but there are only 4, and its a sticker. It doesnt look awful, minus the top of his head, but they sure created a huge hullabaloo over 4 cards. http://cgi.ebay.com/09-Donruss...

I was doing my normal look around the boards today, and I came across this card on FCB. This fake almost took my breath away, as it is almost as good as the triple logo Manning auto that was deemed best ever by me a few months ago.Even though the card is a 1/1, I am still pretty positive...
