My favorite card of 2016

I'll be writing my usual year-end spectacular in a couple of weeks, and that always includes a reference to the best cards of the year. But I don't feel like I'm undermining that post by participating in a contest by the newly named (damn, I've got to look this up, my Latin sucks) Eamus Catuli! blog. It's a cool contest idea: write about your favorite 2016 card acquisition. This is a little difficult for me since 2016 has not jumped out as a particularly interesting year for cardboard. My team didn't win the World Series this year, so I have no warm fuzzies about that. There was nothing issued that made me lunge at the keyboard so I could order it (I'm not much of a "I need that card for my PC" collector anyway). Just about every enjoyable card that I've acquired in the past year was NOT issued in 2016. So, what's my favorite 2016 card? You just saw it. Yeah, that's it. The Craig Biggio card right there. That's my favo...
