I might even say 2012 was only 6 years ago, but topps would like to forget about that. Less framed relics cuts costs, less framed autographs cut costs, less live autographs cut costs, elimination of ginter code cuts costs.

...but by all means it is my fault that ginter isn't what it should be. Perhaps I'm old and crotchety, perhaps I'm bitter, perhaps I just like being the fly in the ointment....


..or perhaps I can see what topps has done to this product, which was one of the finest they put out during the year. This is just a shell of what it used to be. I'm sorry that others can't see that, but then again if you hand over your money before the checklist hits, you have lost all recourse right?

Or perhaps everyone knows that you complain about every release every year.
