Well, release day comes around, the breaks start and Will just disappears. No longer in the thread, no longer on the site, just goes away.

It bothers me most that Will, a guy that knows the market well, has been in this forum a long time and has bought a ton of cards knew this product would look the way it does before release. He pimped it, tried to hype it, knowing that half the hits were non autos, half the rest would be base autos, and most cases would come out big time losers (with not one single case coming out a possible winner sans the one that wins the Bryant).

I appreciate those that say Will delivered on what he said he would; I can understand that opinion. But if this were a good product, Will would be in here standing behind it; defending it and trying to show that yes, this is a good repack product, there's good value in here, and he did the absolute best he could.

Based on the breaks we've seen, I think it's fair to say Will (likely) found a way to double the money he invested in Prospect Rush draft. Good business, bad ethics.
This thread has taken so many twists and turns, it has now reached the point where those who repeat/summarize the last 80 pages are no longer vilified but instead praised. SMDH...

Scrolling through posts is much easier than changing the page every 25 posts. If you're not on 75 ppp you're doing it wrong.

I can't believe this thread is already at 5 pages.

I love this 1,000 posts per-page setting...

Will's going to show up to the national and no one will say #@#@#@#@, I guarantee it. Unless of course there's a laptop nearby and they can type something and run away.

I tried #team75 for 1 day, and I didn't like it. Way too much scrolling in a lot of the threads I enter. I've just been used to 25 posts per page for a few years now.

Other than Houdini's player break upcoming has anyone seen any of this stuff opened in a while? It's crazy how there are NO breaks out there right now based on how much this was hyped.
