the most fun i have with my cards is when i'm hands on with them. i have some higher end graded cards as well but what i like to do is this: i come up with a theme. right now it is single season rookie rushing leaders. from there,i make a top 20 list all time and pick up the cards of those players from that year. in the cases of the older players it's sometimes their rookie card,like eric dickerson. i'm a guy who really likes the back of the card with the stats,so i'll wait until the next years card comes out. ex: adrian peterson just passed billy sims on the list but instead of paying a lot for his rookie card,i'll wait until next year and pick up a cheap base card with the stats. it's fun to play around and change the order as a new contender emerges. i just put 'em in toploaders and enjoy sorting thru them.
