    Still I don't find it fun opening a $100 box and saying wow all I have to show for it is some $10 AU of a no name. Why no pick up a nice Kevin Jones instead? Anyhow you're money have fun. Still can't see why people say stay away from sp authentic.

    I'd assume thats the same way with every box isn't it? Last year I grabbed I grabbed like 10 boxes (Couple boxes Topps/Bowman Chrome, Bowman, Ultra, UD Foundations, Leaf Rookies + Stars, Legends, etc.) and none of them wielding anything great (which made me give boxes up and just picking up nice singles).

    So that is what I'm saying, if you're willing to try your luck why not go with a product that can produce a very nice card. Sure Playoff can be nice, same with Leaf and sweet spot, but since you're fighting the odds why not try for that real nice cards. Because nothing beats a 3 color patch SP Authentic.


    EDIT: Actually why don't you grab a box of Contenders? after reading people's box breaks I think I'm gonna try to snag one on the Bay. I know I'll be real excited when I get it, and soon as I break it and find myself with 4 mediocre autos I'm gonna be pissed I bought it...

    I like Gridiron Gear (Hobby $70 - 100, don't do retail period) and the Absolute (Retail $45 to $60 and Hobby $135 is the way to go.) My personal preference is GG

    I see to many bad rips with SP authentic, Sweet spot and leaf Certified. Plus UD has a bad case of redemptionitis.
