My niece has expressed interest in getting into collecting cards and I've given her some stuff before, but this weekend I'm going to sit down and open some packs with her. So I went to Wal-Mart and purchased one of those "grab-bag" boxes so we could have fun with them.

While there, I picked up a $10 box of 2007 Fleer Ultra, knowing all-well the odds of getting anything worthwhile is nil, but I figured it was a chance and we'll see what the six packs yield. Maybe I can at least get some Phils out of it.

Pack 1
Jeff Kent
CC Sabathia
Carlos Delgado
Akinori Otsuka
Randy Winn

Pack 2
Travis Hafner
Randy Johnson
Jason Bay
Bobby Abreu
Phil Hughes - rookie
(two Yanks in one pack? Boooo!)

Pack 3
Kris Benson
Ivan Rodriguez
Alex Rodriguez
Omar Vizquel
Jonathan Papelbon - Feel the Game

Pack 4
Brad Lidge
Justin Verlander
A.J. Burnett
Hank Blalock
Joe Smith - rookie

Pack 5
Hanley Ramirez
Tim Hudson
Ryan Zimmerman
Scott Rolen
Cal Ripken Jr. - Ultra Iron Man, 3,000th hit

Pack 6
Rafael Furcal
Jermaine Dye
Boof Bonser
Cole Hamels (sweet!)
Joakim Soria - rookie

Overall, not bad. I didn't expect anything like an auto or game-used, but I would have liked one or two more Phillies instead of former Phils! I did get a couple base cards of people I want, so that's cool.
