Learn something every day.

It reminds me of the movie, Sandlot. The "Colossus of Clout".

I know, my brothers and I always thought the same....why Bo and not McGwire? He had an 85 Topps card so it wasn't like it was his first....

This is all really just a giant global art project and that is pretty cool.

Looks like someone already beat me to posting my card. Here's a close up you won't be able to see on Topps site.

Love the red face on Brett. You can almost feel the steam coming out of his ears.

I grabbed an Ermsy Ted Williams companion for below MSRP off eBay, so I guess I'm doing those now? That'll be it for me with companions if I stick with it.

Love the Brett!

The Mac is pretty cool too, for a Baller.

Hi all-
Been a long time since I’ve posted, but I’m here daily. This thread got me back into buying, an I look forward to the new releases. Coming here to read the feedback is interesting to say the least lol. I’ve bought 20 or so of P2020, including today’s 2 offerings. Thanks for the insight on here and keep it coming.

I'd honestly take that era of rap back over the mumble rap we got now.

More so than the Nolan Ryan yesterday, I feel the Mays Siff was a smart 10 pack if we see something in the high 2ks or low 3ks. The Siff Brett was not well appreciated at first but gained popularity later- think the Mays will be the same.

And baller could give old man a lesson in what a decent baseball card photo looks like. Much better photograph than the original and needless to say better image than [L]ol's.

That said, I'm in the camp that much prefers cards to resemble the original card; I really don't want completely new versions. Baller's wood borders look like cheap faux wood flooring they put in new apartments.
Yes. Complete fail on Ballers part.
