Year: 2002

Set: Pacific Private Stock Reserve - Retail Rookies (Rate)

Card: #140 Cliff Russell


“ The 'li'in Clint and the "ll" in Russell seem to merge together. Other than that an okay card. ” -John Kerry

“ I didn't know Pacific hired Piet Mondrian to design a set of football cards. I've been staring at it for several minutes, and I have grown to like it. ” -switzr1

“ I'm pretty sure I saw this same design, minus the football player, in the floor tile section at Home Depot a few years ago! ” -Billy Kingsley

“ How utterly boring, glad I don’t collect this set, too much colours in the empty spaces ” -aussiewayne

“ In some ways, I'm glad I scaled back in collecting football at this time. This looks horrible. ” -jupiterhill

“ The front of this card was obviously based off of the bus from the Partridge Family. ” -Gunny

“ 2002? How about 1969 The Partridge Family. Hehehe. Is it my imagination or is the foil lettering on the front blurry but the rest of the scan is sharp? Back looks all sharp must be the foil scanned weird. ” -captkirk42

“ I like the front of this card a lot. Name. Position. 2002 draft pick... Solid card. 10/10 ” -Soldan

“ is he playing Parchesi? ” -NJDevils

“ Pretty cool looking card. Panini could hire them. ” -parsley24

“ Very Red, White and Blue, especially says he was a Utah player. I don't remember Utah's colors ever looking like this. ” -muskie027

“ I really like the back of this card. The front, however, not so much. It has a "Tron meets football" vibe, which sounds like it would be awesome, but is actually just ugly. ” -LordKinbote

“ Why is Piet Mondrian's artwork a backdrop for this disaster of a card design? Seriously this is awful. And no logos on a College Card? This may be the worst card and set ever produced. ” -rmpaq5

Very similar to Mondrian's "Composition II".  If Disney owned it, they would have sued Pacific.

In a game like football, where there is so many dynamic movements, the oppurtunity to capture motion seems endlessly intriguing.  Then you get a card of a guy standing up...

I would say this is the ugliest card since 1941 Goudey and 1949 Bowman! They are actually repulsive! What were they thinking?
