Card: #103 Alge Crumpler


“ His name is Alge? I hope that isn't pronounced like the slimy stuff that grows on stagnant water. Design of the card I like. I would have guessed 1998 instead of 2001. ” -Billy Kingsley

“ I love the name! Yes, I could get into collecting these, even with the "busy" front of the card! ” -bkklaos

“ That card needs Crumpling. ” -NJDevils

“ Good looking card. Private Stock was a good Pacific product. I like the Pacific "rookie" red diamond. Never understood why the "Premiere Date" parallel is called Premiere Date. Whenever I hear the name Alge Crumpler, I always think of Alger Hiss [ traitor ] for some reason. ” -abide

“ This is an ok design. Pacific released too many parallels to keep track of. ” -Brendan Barrick

“ Really good Pacific set. I like this card a lot. ” -switzr1

“ I am surprised this is a Pacific set. I usually like their designs. This one not so much. ” -captkirk42

“ non licensed cards really frustrate me. ” -parsley24

Alge grew up in Wilmington, NC (sound familiar?), All-ACC at UNC and 4-time Pro Bowl selection with Falcons. Name comes from father's favorite book "Flowers for Algernon".  Pacific used pics from Senior Bowl for that set (generic uniform with UNC Tar Heels helmet.

Lots of "too much going on here" in the comments. I must be in the minroity in thinking it has a nice balance.
