Nothing to do with your cards specifically, but that white top with the orange bottoms is a classic look.

Skybox & Upper deck used to have the best cards.

I used to buy whole team packs for like $1.50 lol

I have so many that I didn’t even realize I had lol

What did they make that gum out of, cardboard? It seemed to have the same consistency.

Real talk; when I was growing up, teeth falling out, my sure fire way to get that tooth out quick & efficiently was that card gum. Chit was bricks. Saliva could not break that down, real strong jawlines only.

Been over 50 years ago I started a collection. From what I can remember, we could buy a cardboard storage box. It was the height and width of a card and about 6 inches long. Held about 100 cards?

Yep, then they went to longer ones that held complete sets, then the advancement to the 5000 card box holders. Good times.

I don’t know why, maybe reverting back to when I was a kid, but I just love this. The whole idea of trading cards, I haven’t thought about that for a long time, really since I was a kid.

It has potential for some nice and steady income for these athletes over their college career, which is really the most important part.

To think about the
Willie May's
Tom Seaver
Clemente
Brooks Robinson
Johnny Bench cards I had on the spokes of my bicycle (some rookie) makes me cringe...

 

[Kjdcanefan]

I still hold on to my signed Barry Sanders rookie card. I have signed teemu selanne and paul kariya cards as well. Collecting cards was so much fun as a kid as was standing outside the stadiums waiting to meet the superstars.

AND THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING! WAIT UNTIL YOU SEE WHAT IS NEXT!!

Tennessee has been using this model for NIL deals just not with topps if anyone is wondering how they're structuring some of their NIL payouts. But of course it's not performance based or anything lmao.

 

[Billy D Williams]

Be a lot cooler if the gators didn't announce the same thing yesterday. But alas, very cool, will help, all the good stuff. Would've just been nice to have this all to ourselves and watch the dip****s to the north cry more.

At least that means we don't have to listen to any made up, but popular, cheating accusations.

 

[We the Boss]

Probably hundreds of dollars in this for us!

I think they still make that gum - and it's used in Class III and Class IV ballistic vests.

 

[WesternMDCane]

Only collected Cal Ripken Jr. baseball cards, being my favorite player growing up, I have over 600 of them, some are multiples of the same card but mostly single, autographed jersey cards, die cut cards, a lot of different varieties. The Rochester Red Wings card is the one I want but has alluded me over the years. I have photographic memory of the cards and can tell what cards I don’t have. Bought most of them when I lived with my parents growing up, so that slowed down when I grew older. Do have a Jeter rookie card as well as the Topps Gold Ichiro rookie card as well as several others.

This will be sweet. The Topps MLB and Star Wars card apps are fantastic. Now I can collect the Canes? Can we get a vintage Bumblebee card or two?

Agreed I used to be pretty active on topps huddle, now all my stuff is physical basically just former canes. If they did a digital college app I’d be on that though, takes up way less space

I could be wrong, but I believe Panini will still have the collegiate license even after Fanatics/Topps takes over the pro stuff.

 

[Cajuncane]

Yea but the difference is that **** collection will be a set of criminals with number 1 card being Aaron Hernandez….

 

[nystateofmind]

I’ll actually be very interested to see how this NIL thing works.

Panini extended their exclusive deal with the CLC in 2020 and I doubt it was just a two year extension.

How will Fanatics/Topps be able to circumvent this?

Players under NIL mem/autos be exclusive to Fanatics/Topps. Like Lebron and UD. RN Panini has the rights to use logos and direct team colors. Where Topps right now can only use sanitized uniforms. It's a dumb concept, but money runs it, like all things. I'm not that excited that Topps is taking over some of these licenses due to their typical designs and cardstock choices, but Panini's CS and QA are insufferable.

 

[nystateofmind]

Where Topps right now can only use sanitized uniforms.

That’s gonna be really blah if that’s the case.

I don’t understand why the school would announce it if the school logo can’t even be used.
