Remember when he was the hottest football card going early in his career? And it ends up his injury paved the way for Tom Brady's ascension.

Unless things have changed in the last few years the most expensive card in the 1993 Action Packed set was Troy Brown's RC. That was the only card made of him until 1995. He was the 2 way player that was a huge cog in the first couple of Patriots Super Bowl championships. He might have been Brady's #1 target during those seasons.,

Cards from a player's rookie year always catch my eye even if the card is not the offical RC.

I always thought Champ was his real name since he had a brother called Boss Bailey. But much to my disappointment those were just nicknames with Champ's real first name was Roland and his brother's was Ronald. I thought there was a third brother with an unusual name like the other two but I couldn't find it.

I looked it up. There were 3 brothers - Roland (aka Champ), Ronald, and Rodney (aka Boss) - and all three played at Georgia. It doesn't look like the third brother had a nickname.

That is freakin cool! I don't think I have a shoe swatch.

I agree with the cool sentiment! I'm sure there's 124 more out there, but I've never seen one....paid as if there's only 1 out there....

I was gunna say I can't believe that's numbered to 125! Are all the shoe-graphs from that set /125?
