Year: 2003-04
Set: Fleer Tradition (Rate)
Card: #277 Zarko Cabarkapa
“ Of all the more than 2000 NBA players with cards, this is the second one of his to be Card of the Day. (both of which were my scans) This one features a photo taken at the NBA Draft superimposed over a generic street ball photo. The veteran players in the set got much better cards. He played only three years in the NBA, and then retired due to injury. ” -Billy Kingsley
“ Nothing traditional about this lazy design. ” -carthage44
“ I get that he's a draft pick so there aren't any pictures of him in the team uniform, but this card is basically empty, front and back. "Destiny"?!? That was the best blurb Fleer could come up with? ” -dilemma19
“ Ah a love/hate retro card. What I love about Fleer Tradition is they usually used regular old fashioned raw cardboard and a modified older design. OK this guy is a rookie so he has no pro stats but couldn't they have listed his college years? Maybe some kind of bio. The back looks a bit blank. This is where the old style of having a cartoon on the back helped. Another "hate" is the wearing a suit/tie with modern ball cap is more recent years tradition looks very odd in a retro set. ” -captkirk42
“ For some reason the back of this card cracks me up. No college or NBA experience, yet it was his destiny. LOL ” -RoyalChief
“ And the award for worst back in the history of sports cards goes to.....the envelope please..... ” -NJDevils
“ I just never really cared for a suit and tie on a card. One of the least informative card backs I've ever seen. Spelling his name in Scrabble will yield many points. ” -Kaline6
“ It is my "destiny" to own this card someday. ” -switzr1
