There back.....9 years ago was the last "regular" Donruss set that was around. Now there back
better than ever. Oh...wait....that's right, no team logos. OK. Should be at least a 400 count set.
Nope.... a bunch of inserts.....finally a winner.
Was just part of a group break, watched a few others in the last 2 days and I would like to say,
YES......Donruss is back. You see, I'm probably one of the FEW people who really loved the
Donruss basic sets of the past. My best all-time pull is from a Donruss pack(1998 Purple Crusade
Cal Ripken numbered 001/100).
The cards that I have seen so far and reading over the checklist makes me want to buy a ton of it,
like the old days, but I have to be financially sound right now.
Let me know your comments.
Thanks for reading.

Starting Over
Wow.....its been a year since I posted anything. A crappy job will do that to you.
Enough about the past.
2014 Topps
I have read numerous other blogs with opinions about the cards and I will give mine.
Base- not at all bad looking, the "down the right side team name" is too much like the Bowman cards
Gold- same old, same old...... how many years in a row now
Red Target and Blue Walmart- I like it and have no idea why
Red Hot Foil- I rather the green from last year, looks too much like the Target cards
Yellow and Green- the A's cards are outstanding..... other than that just 2 more colors in Topps idea of a rainbow
Power Players- another year, another gimmick
SP'S- different pictures like last year is fine, but having to examine every card for a sparkle, come on
89 Topps Minis- really, die cuts of this.....to be kind, not good
Upper Class- everytime I see this listed, I think Upper Deck....not happening for me
Future is Now- another excuse to add 3 more cards of certain players
Super Veterans- like the idea, would have loved it if they did NOT use gold foil
All-Rookie Cup Team- again, another excuse.....also hate the grey coloring
50 Years of the Draft- nice idea, nice look to them, kinda reminds me of the early 80's look of draft pick cards but better feel than the cardboard ones
Overall, I actually like this product..... but waiting for Bowman to come out
That's my opinions
Always looking for Texas Rangers, Dallas Mavericks, Dallas Cowboys, and Dallas Stars
