You can't tell from looking at it, but they're in there. Let me prove it to you.
#485 - Delmon Young - The wonders of no background. See how players can hit fly balls without the need for a petty bat.
#610 - Josh Beckett - Is this guy still good? I can't tell what people think anymore. I think the answer is no.
#471 - Tim Collins - Here's a rookie that I've never heard of that will probably be nobody. Of course now that I've said that, he'll be an all-star next year and a hall of famer.
#102 - Christy Mathewson - Diamond Anniversary - Probably the best card, luckwise, from my blaster adventures. This is up for trade (along with all the black borders you see here) if you're interested in one of those SP sparkly dealies. Oh yeah, this is retro-fitted with a series 1 card number. Just wait until update with the new parallels for EVERYTHING. Totally necessary!
#DD-11 - Carl Crawford/Jacoby Ellsbury - Diamond Duos - I dislike these cards, but most people do. I believe Carl is airbrushed up the waz. Technical term.
#60YOT-67 - Richie Ashburn - 60 Years of Topps - I suppose these are more tolerable, but not by much, honestly. I've never been a big fan of reprints. I'd rather see creativity.
#362 - Doug Fister - Doug? I barely knew 'er. (Think about it. You'll get the joke eventually. Then you'll wonder why I wasted your time.)
#520 - Jorge Posada - I'm sure most Yankee haters are thinking the same thing. "I hope he's trying to catch the ball with his mouth." Actually, after some of his comments earlier in the year, some Yankee fans may be thinking that too.Ta da! The magic of dropped backgrounds. No super awesome action shots to show how well these cards can pop, but you know already, don't you? Yeah, I thought so.
