I'm as aware as anyone of the BS factor in the news media. In fact, I often shake my head at budget meetings in my very own workplace. That said, the BS level is much, much higher on certain websites and on Twitter. No comparison.<br /><br />I still say Documentary is not eligible because "concept" is very important in judging whether a set is worth purchasing or not. Many people bought Documentary initially because they liked the concept. I can't say the same about "Signature Stars."night owlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11673973790245316059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2700049103080920994.post-51783477981911351892012-09-20T13:04:04.942-04:002012-09-20T13:04:04.942-04:00Hate to say it but those of us who consume media r...Hate to say it but those of us who consume media really have to have the BS media working, there's as much BS there as anywhere else, if not more. (Not picking on you or your paper of course!)<br /><br />I was going to say documentary too. I see your point, but I have an Ian Kinsler card from that set, and there is just the back of an Orioles outfielder head as he watches the ball go over the fence. May be the most pointless card I have. I agree it would be a cool concept but the execution made those cards pointless.Bohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10955725607806692792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2700049103080920994.post-29596415092319482222012-09-19T23:35:29.660-04:002012-09-19T23:35:29.660-04:00^^^ Documentary would probably be my #1 on this li...^^^ Documentary would probably be my #1 on this list. That or Spectrum.<br /><br />I still wish I could get back the $20 that I spent on a Spectrum blaster in '08. A complete waste, to put it nicely.<br /><br />Call me crazy, but I actually kind of liked Signature Stars. I'm not quite sure why, though.Nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13508921644099472101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2700049103080920994.post-53780069904433573842012-09-19T22:59:29.977-04:002012-09-19T22:59:29.977-04:00Documentary had a point, or at least a concept.

You forgot the TRUE #1 set: 2008 UD Documentary!!! Lets put 100 cards of each player and the same photo on the front that has nothing to do with the game itself listed on the back. I happen to like Ticket to Stardom, now when I search through trash cans at baseball games looking for cool ticket stubs...I can say I work for Topps and I'm looking for new relics for cards! hahaAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15921054007713856472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2700049103080920994.post-78745955543874730922012-09-19T22:19:48.220-04:002012-09-19T22:19:48.220-04:00Card collecting and blogging pointless??
