This was going to be the highlight, but given there was nothing for me to keep, it was no competition at all.
Highlight:
So, I only needed one of these copies to get the complete base set, but instead got these three instead. Awesome knocking off a complete set again as it has been a while from the Santa Lot. Now the question is - does anyone want this 135 card complete set (including the checklist cards as well) as I would be more than happy to trade it away.
The rest
Traders:
The 2007-08 Topps variation cards would have otherwise highlighted today as both the cards were needed for the insert set.
Was disappointed I didn't need the 2008-09 Masterpieces Hawerchuk card, but so be it - same with the McDs.

Not so fun fact: Crittenden is or was in jail, for murder. Somebody shot at him, he shot back, and missed...but hit a bystander just walking down the street. I'm not sure if he is still in jail or not. One of the few NBA players I am not a fan of.
ReplyDeleteYes - let me specify - highlight for card purposes only....not for the individual himself.
DeleteActually brings up a good question - how far as a collector, would you go to NOT collect certain people. This one, or even say Chris Benoit in wrestling as an extreme. WOuld you complete the set without that card and be fine with it...
