The Bench Autograph Cards

[cardcollector01]

Meliah and myself were thinking of making a set of autographs highlighting some of the great traders on The Bench. It would be like a set of baseball cards you would see today, only it would feature traders on The Bench with their autographs.

First, do you think, if we made a set like this, that people would like it? Would you think it was a good idea? The sets would problably be distributed as contest prizes or something along those lines.


Remember, this is still in the thinking stages, and we have not even talked to Pete about it (i will be PMing him in a minute). LMK your thoughts/suggestions.

I think it'd be cool. Just remember, no sticker autos and NO REDEMPTIONS!

 

[cardcollector01]

HAHA why not LOL. If we do have redemptions, we will try not to be as bad as UD

But seriously, they would proabably be distributed as a set form, with all on cards autos.

Thanks for the laugh!

You don't have to talk to Pete to get to go ahead on this you goof, I already said it was cool. Maybe I should make my title bigger and get some neon colors

This is a great idea. We can even include a piece of a shirt or worn materal or something among those lines.

I'd be interested in some Benchie autos! It would be great if we could get the members to submit a picture of themselves for the card. Really neat if that picture was sports related..like HS football or baseball photo. JMO

I have my named tattooed on my left arm in old english letters. Now that is what I would call a REAL "Cut" Signature!

I bet I could Ebay it! Somebody would buy it. I mean there are even people who buy Adam Dunn cards. People will buy anything........

Thanks

Awesome idea! Once again, you only find brilliant ideas like this on the Bench! One question, is it only HOF Benchies, or All-Star traders as well? I wouldn't mind giving you guys the most abused paper towel used during Game 2 of the Indians-Yankeed used from innings 1-7.1! Tears and sweat of a TRUE Indians fan!

I like the idea. Just remember, I put the "FUN" in FUNky and dysFUNctional!

How about a gnat from game 2?

 

[cardcollector01]

HAHA!!! I dont think we have decided yet, but I would like to have it open to all members. Like maybe we could have 7 HOF slots, 5 Veteran slots, 3 All star slots and a rookie slot. I will talk it over with Matt and i will LYK.

I'd love to have a dual auto card of craig and I. Would be nice to compare auto's side to side of the same name.

If that ends up being the case, I call dibs on one of the all-star slots ! HA! I beat you all to it!
