“ Ugly looking card. Both sides look like the back. Too much chrome junk for me. The concept is OK but the execution stinks. Typical 1990s. ” -captkirk42

“ Kept the film on, I like it. The card itself I actually like too, not big on chrome type cards, but this one works. ” -jupiterhill

“ juicy... ” -volbox

“ I never knew one card could contain so many PED's. Hope these 2 never make the hall. My all time Home Run leader is Hank Aaron. ” -Kaline6

“ Great scan. Finest cards are hard to scan properly and whoever did this one really did a good job. ” -Billy Kingsley

“ A lot of HRs on this card. No HOF. ” -vrooomed

“ Always keep the protective coating on! ” -carthage44

“ Is that a halloween mask on Bond's face? Makes him look like a Bengals fan. Great card depicting two of the biggest juicers in MLB at the time. Bravo! ” -flcardtrader

“ Two of the best examples of fair play & nice guys in all of baseball history.#sarcasm. ” -uncaian

“ This is actually really cool. I may try to get a hold of this card someday. ” -RoyalChief

I agree with Kaline6.        I guess they couldn't fit Sosa on here because all three heads are so big from 'roids, they wouldn't git.       Long live Aaron and Maris  (and they gave Roger an "*".   Selig was such a hypocrite.

I didn't like this set because it represented something I hate far more than Anything pertaining to PED use: interleague play.


-------------------------------

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.
