Year: 2000

Set: Pacific Paramount - Ruby (Rate)

Card: #243 Homer Bush


“ Just after reading complaints about early-2000s Blue Jays logos on today's Escobar card, here is that same uniform again. I'm a big Pacific guy, but this isn't one of their best sets. ” -switzr1

“ Looks like Homer is hitting a homer. ” -chvlDm

“ The black auto-crop border around the card, really makes the ruby parallel pop. ” -ShoTime

“ If he didn't play for the Cardinals at some point there is something wrong with the world. Homer Bush hitting a homer at Busch Stadium would have made my day. As for the card, I am saddened that Pacific, one of my favorite card companies went with a generic white border and this is one of those sets that has way too many parallels. The card designs are great otherwise. If they had put a different border and kept it to one or two parallels It would have been 10s for the front and back. As it is, a 8 for the front and a 10 for the back and a 7 overall for being a parallel. ” -davidhandberry

“ A good reason to keep teaching cursive in schools. ” -NJDevils

“ I like a lot of Pacific products, but this one is pretty much a failure. Perfect example of why I don't like foil lettering, You CAN'T READ IT especially in this scan. IN reality OK you can read it in certain light settings but it is horrible. Back not sure what the stats are showing and the main text is some kind of script that isn't easy to read, it isn't too difficult to read it just isn't easy. ” -captkirk42

“ My much missed Pacific...come back! ” -suomibear8

“ Love seeing these obscure Blue Jays pop up. Outside of The Simpsons, this was the first Homer I ever knew of. ” -DanD

“ You would have thought that a guy named Homer would hit more of them. Not a fan of the lettering on the front, it's hard to read. Also not a fan of backs that only list the previous season stats, I wanna see every season ” -Lennoxmatt

“ k? ” -crashdavis28

“ Both sides of this card are disasters in their own way. The front is too dark and boring, while the back looks like it puked on by the Jamaican department of tourism. Independently they do not work; together they make this card look like hot garbage. ” -LordKinbote

“ Back isn't cool, and the front would be better with a field action shot instead of blue background. ” -muskie027
