    I didn't mind the 84s, but after the spectacular 85 design it feels like Topps lost their way on football designs. Then by the late 90s all sports ended with the same damn design anyway so...

    Man those 86 Topps football were an affront to the eyes, but had some top notch rookies. I get what they were going for with the football field look but....

    It was in Beckett or SCD years ago, probably around 98 or 99. If I remember correctly they had gotten permission from Ruth's grand daughter, or blessing, and the quote that sticks out to me was UD,'s President saying how this would drive sales of the product...

    Not trying anymore - Another mem card rant

    I tend to agree. It's kinda cool, but I like you said are they just using unsold retail jerseys or even worse, the jersey material. Also, I was annoyed when Upper Deck started this madness by cutting up a Babe Ruth jersey. I'd rather be in a raffle for the entire thing instead of a piece of it.
