Well, we will see if this writer's opinion pans out....

"Baseball players will take anything. If you had a pill that would guarantee a pitcher 20 wins but might take five years off his life, he'd take it" MLB pitcher Jim Bouton about drug use in the Major Leagues... quoted in 1969.

Interesting read, but will customers buy college players in undistinquished uniforms? That is more the real question.

No logos means no logos..

UD's baseball will never have a rookie designation according to MLB licensing rules who established the rookie logo found on many cards. UD had that taken away from them.

BTW.. Lawsuits will rule the day from 2010 on in my opinion!


My wants:
06-09 Allen & Ginter GU or Autos
08 Topps Mayo GU or Autos
08 Champs Hockey GU or Autos
Topps American Heritage Historical relics
Non-Sport Autos especially Firefly & LOTR
Hall of Fame GU or autos any sport

Sometimes I wonder...throughout all the bickering these companies do and all these exclusive contracts that seem to be the new thing, do they EVER think at all about us?

not I! i want my ramses barden cards with him in a GREEN AND GOLD Cal Poly Jersey. I want a patch with the head of the mustang on it. not some lame all white jersey that could be anything.

which brings up a question. exlcusive on logos? so then game used patches/jersey are gone... so now i get authentic worn walmart plain white jersey that was worn for 2 min at a photo shoot? also, woluld this include the patch work from the reebok/nike/whatever patches found on the jersey?

Interesting point regarding the patches.

I think Donruss got away with patches in 2008/9 Donruss Threads which was not licensed.
