“ All right! A Big Ten boy! ” -Howintensive

“ Yes, it has been a while since one of my cards showed up. I always liked cards with the players college uniform on. The card is also serial numbered #1! Huge game for Wisconsin coming up to kickoff the 2014 season against LSU. GO BADGERS!!! ” -carthage44

“ Well, my assessment of this player is, he won't be a HOF player. This is a great card, but even at 1 of 599, won't be of much value. Not that that is the only reason to collect. I love to get those number 1 cards for a limited number card. I just only have one of them. ” -yokonashiwa

“ Cool serially numbered 1 rookie card. I always loved getting #1. This design for Fleer Showcase is a great one too. I don't like digitally created backgrounds as a general rule, but it's hard to argue against a set that looks this good. I admit that I don't know much about football, but isn't a home run threat a baseball thing? ” -Billy Kingsley

“ First I was like "hey, doesn't it kinda look like that Wisconsin player is running across a big Buffalo Bills logo?" ...then I realized that the Wisconsin player was, in fact, running across a big Buffalo Bills logo. Maybe if I could read the teeny tiny text this would somehow all make sense? ” -revnorb

“ Fleer almost dropped this card at the last second. ” -UNC_Samurai

“ Kind of cool that it is card #1 of 599...the other 598 owners of this (limited edition) card are drooling over your card. Always thought it would be kind of cool to try to get all the rest of the cards...then if you destroyed all but one, you'd have a 1 of 1, right!? ” -bkklaos

Like the card and I also like getting cards of players in their college uniforms. It's too bad that most if not all of the new ones feature blank helmets.

I agree semers. Most of the college cards that come out now (Press Pass, Sage and Leaf) do not have a NCAA license so therefore are unable to use the college team's logo. It's too bad because there are so many cool college logos (including the Wisconsin waving W).

 I was a big fan and once saw him up close on his way to court he walked past me it was kind of weird seeing someone i rooted for in those circumstances flanked by an attorney or two.  Our eyes met and for that odd moment I could tell that he was embarrased.  He knew not whether I was a fan or not.  I am really impressed with how he moved on from an incident that nowadays would be legal in some states.

Collect-A-Set, what are you talking about? Was that post meant to another blog because your post is very confusing?
