How big of a deal is the facial expression of a player on a card to you? Have you ever skipped over a card because the player is half-blinking, sticking out his tongue, standing oddly, or otherwise looking like a dork?

It depends on the haircut they have. Any player with Bryce Harper hairstyle is a no no in my book, I don't collect them.

Speaking of no no. Mr. Gray is going to throw that tonight.

You mean like this?

I like all of the Mark Teixeira cards where he's blowing out his birthday candles during a swing.

You mean he's actually made other facial expressions besides the perpetual "DUHHHHHH" slack-jawed-yokel face he makes whenever the TV camera happens to look at him? :D

I was very high on Alex White, stayed away form his cards though because of the strange look on his face and terrible photo shop job.http://i59.tinypic.com/28aq7a1.jpg

That is a very odd expression. It was looking through a bunch of player's first Bowmans from around 09 that prompted the question, because some of the photos are just not flattering.

I did too, not sure if it is "bad" or not but came in ready to defend him. Us short bussers need to stick together. Exit, that most certainly includes you and your helmet wearing self.

There's no way this thread isn't about Yordano Ventura.

Random Battleship, you must be referring to my spiked helmet. Great for BBQs, got a few F/T.

I kind of like the goofy cards. Here's one of my favorites from when I collected as a youngster during the junk era.

Look, I get it. If I had to wear a padded helmet, I too would add pizzazz to it to hide the fact that I was a danger to myself. In fact, it is similar to the reason that I stuff socks down the front of my pants.
