https://www.tcdb.com/ViewCard.cfm/sid/2177/cid/675658/1993-94-Topps-388-Derrick-Coleman I'm kind of asking in jest, but the heading on the front is completely untrue. ------------------------------- 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.

In fairness to D.C., this card was produced before the '93-94 season - which was his best, albeit, 14th-best "scoring leader" rank. While you're at it, you'll have to "tag" Mailman (best rank = 2nd), Ewing (3rd), The Dream (3rd), Round Mound (5th), Grandmama (9th) & Jordan's teammate (10th) as well. I guess they can't all "Be Like Mike" :)

"They call him the mailman because he doesn't deliver on Sundays!" Thank you, Scottie! ------------------------------- <Insert Signature Here>

I tried to look for a Ryan Leaf "Hall of Fame Future" type of card but alas nothing ------------------------------- * Ed * L8 * Cards in my personal Collection are unavailable *

A while back I made A list of times that card companies accurately predicted the future.

It's two cards long.

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

VERY slow trading due to health problems. Not transferrable so safe to trade with, just moving is painful and can't always access the cards.

To be fair to Topps, they did guess 2 out of 10 "Future Scoring Leaders" correctly in Shaq and David Robinson. (And they picked one former scoring leader approaching the end of his career in Wilkins.) switzr1 wrote: https://www.tcdb.com/ViewCard.cfm/sid/2177/cid/675658/1993-94-Topps-388-Derrick-Coleman I'm kind of asking in jest, but the heading on the front is completely untrue.
