Not a bad break considering the cards we pulled. Here are some of the better ones: Bob Baun Masterpeice auto, Gordie Howe Masterpeice auto (nice), R Houle Parkhurst auto, Dale Hawerchuk Parkhurst auto, Willie Plett Enforcers Parkhurst auto, Steve Mason SPX auto rc (nice), and several others. Thanks for hosting, now lets get rolling with September.

That was really a stupendous month. 2 big hits, and several real nice medium-size hits. The teams were even spread around.
I personally really like leaving those last couple teams for the randomizer. I'm happy to go back up to the 15 member size if we can, but would have no complaints doing 12-14 members again.

QUOTE(barrow @ Sep 4 2009, 09:46 AM) You wouldn't rather have another product added? I think we all would rather have another box. The problem is finding enough members to fill. We have tried and tried the last few months, and some of us have stepped up and taken second slots, but most of us cannot do that every month. The other problem in the equation is the remaining teams. Most of the better old time teams, and rookie teams are owned. Getting someone who wants one of the left over teams is hard to do. We will see what happens this month, who knows maybe a few other members will join.

QUOTE(barrow @ Sep 4 2009, 12:17 PM) Yes, all of that is completely understandable. I just read Tromni's post as saying that he'd rather not fill the group and have randomized hits than fill the group and have another product. The more the merrier. If we can get all the way back to 15, we should. I just meant that I felt the experience of breaking a little less product was offset by feeling like everyone had slightly better drafted teams, so that I wouldn't object to using the short month as a solution if we can't fill things again. Also, we'll soon be splitting our breaks among 08/09 products and 09/10 products again, so we'll have more "good rookie" teams in the pot, making things more exciting again. Part of the reason that things stagnated is that this year had a very shallow rookie class

Part of the reason that things stagnated is that this year had a very shallow rookie class The problem is later in the year we will be doing mostly 09-10 products and not getting an even mix of years. I thought this years rookies were not bad, not sure how 09-10 is shaping up yet. I guess it depends on how UD puts Tavares, etc in the products. Ultra is terrible for this reason, all the better rookies are 1 per box as a redemption, and the redemptions are usually very hot, then drop as the inserted rookie products hit like S1, BD, etc. I think the highest one in 08-9 is around $30??? For a rookie that is 1 of 20 inserted 1 a box that is pretty low bv.
