The thing that bugs me most about this year's set is that they got the size of the 1990 border wrong (way too small). I do like those football tall boy things, though. In fact, I'm digging the whole concept of recycling vintage designs from other sports. Makes me realize, not being a basketball, football or hockey guy, that there were probably some pretty sweet looking cards back in the day that I've never seen.petethanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02222725895895580850noreply@blogger.com
