For all of you folks who think Upper Deck are going down, they have signed Jordan to yet another long term deal.

That was 10 months ago. Apparently UD have a court hearing with the IRS soon. If that's true, things could change very quickly.

^^^that courts case was a few year ago apparently over some Pokemon cards now they have come out clean. People forget MJ is part owner of Upper Deck so the chances of them going down are highly unlikely.

They have a hearing set for the 26th of January, this month.

Jordan and Upper Deck go together. So unless something happens to Upper Deck you won't see Jordan somewhere else. If people are butthurt about that then they should be mad at Panini for just throwing tons of money around thinking they could buy the whole hobby out rather than truly understanding it. They could have used all the money they wasted on getting the NBA license to actually accomplish something rather than screw over basketball collectors but having Jordan excluded from basketball cards and getting a company that doesn't know what they are doing with the market now running things.
