I didn't know till just now that Gronk was Week 10. I want one if anyone has a spare.

Also, on that page Ship is shown with an orangish border while mine is black. Does that mean anything?

I have two sets but I think they look pretty awful myself. There is nothing special about these other than I had to wait forever to get a bunch of cards that will ultimately find their way into a common box.

would have been better if they were chrome type cards, but still...it's a bunch of somewhat limited rookies...for free you cant really complain.

A thread for a base card, seriously? A misleading title as well. At least we know the pirates won't be hijacking this pointless ship :flex:

Nice card Eric, I like these, they look much better than the regular Topps stuff.

Yes indeed! Not the coolest thang but still cool cards for player collectors and team collectors. Heck I wouldn't mind having a complete set of them all!

Gotta brush them off and maybe they will go back in their holes. Everyone is due their opinion but no need to be rude (George19). Not sure if you saw it yet but here is the Colt I got yesterday:

Yeah I have been getting them in in small groups last and this week. I have all of them upto week 13 right now. So just waiting for 14,15,16,and 17. And even though we needed to wait a pretty long time, free is free!! And free is good!!

These are not totally worthless I made a pretty good amt off money buying the sets and selling them individually. Sold the Tebow and the Bradfords, and pretty much everything after that was free! If Javarris James (Colts RB) ever makes it - this set contains his only NFL card made his rookie year.

I'm in the same boat, got up to week 13. I like the design and each card has that Weeks stats which earned them the Rookie of the Week. Not bad for free!

Yeah i think its neat on the Colt - it describes him beating the Patriots, this will go down as a significant moment in his career.

Jimmy Clausen didn't make it in...kinda cool you had to "earn" your way in to the set....sort of.

I hadn't think about it that way. You are right, it's like an exclusive club. I can see the other guys standing outside the entrance with glum faces. :o
