Card: #19 Drew Bledsoe


“ Am I tripping? It hurts my eyes. ” -Duke

“ This is a very odd set design, made moreso by the scan, which shows up as pink and purple lines (I would guess it was done on en Epson machine, one of my scanners does that with holofoils). I know a lot of people go nuts for SPx and SP Authentic cards, but I honestly am not that big a fan. ” -Billy Kingsley

“ I normally don't comment on football (I don't really collect football), but this, this is terrible. The background on the front (and back!) looks like a really bad acid trip or something. Bledsoe, himself, was a great QB. ” -vrooomed

“ Very distracting background...hate it. ” -C2Cigars

“ I think this card had a negative effect on Bledsoe's career. ” -NJdevils

“ Wow, that is probably the busiest base card I have seen ” -jackal726

“ Too much happening in these Bills unis. The double outline isn't necessary, as is the thin royal blue stripe across the chest. ” -jlaz10

“ Ahhh! I'm blind! ” -suomibear8

“ Not a big fan of this design, but don't find is as bad as I used to. I prefer seeing the field as a background. ” -armac

Yeah that's pretty bad, back is ok though.

This may be the worst base set design of a major league sport from a major manufacturer that I've ever seen.

I'm going to reevaluate how I collect after the new year. It's just getting way too expensive for the new stuff.  Sometimes I just want to buy a pack, not a whole box or even blaster.
