Stale Gum: Remember when "Baseball Cards" had, you know, *BASEBALL* players on them?

Tuesday, April 28, 2009

Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you this year's "Poley Walnuts."

And yes, this is an actual card that will be inserted into '09 UD2 packs.

This is pretty bad.; April 28, 2009 5:09 PM
James B. Anama said...: I don't know if I'd call this pathetic. It's only part of a insert set (a ridiculous concept of an insert set mind you) that the brain trust at UD came up with.

Now, if a certain other baseball card company decides to include Bo with their actual 2009 base design (and gives it a number like BO-1), then...

Sincerely,

JayBee Anama

The trend has just gotten worst. Buy a blaster of 2009 Upper Deck A Piece of History and marvel at the lack of actual baseball cards. On second thought, do not buy this product. Its worse than last year.; April 28, 2009 6:41 PM
