RE: Questions about Score 2011
Yeah I got a hobby box and was pretty disappointed to learn the inserts weren't numbered anymore. Not sure I even got a $5 card out of 36 packs, but we'll see I guess. Fortunately I only paid $22 so whatever I guess... Just a very ho-hum product, even for low end. It's like Panini is taking low-end to new lows.

RE: Questions about Score 2011
I'd keep away, and buy some singles with those couple of bucks. Just my opinion though.
I think Blowcards has all sorts of deals and cheap boxes....I'm more than certain you could find something in the $$ range that would be more fruitful.

RE: Questions about Score 2011
I picked up the Jets Score base, glossy & gold zone for not a lot this weekend, been putting together the scorecard parallels also, need 1 for the set, got all 4 rookies base, glossy, gold zone and scorecard also.
It's good if
a) you like Score has a mix of veterans (Jets have 10), also 4 rookies for a 14 card teamset.
b) it is inexpensive
c) you like those parallels
Luckily I do, but I know I'm in a minority.
What is weak, buying a box and wanting big pulls, hard to hit an auto,
and the rookies who never went to the Rookie Premiere have a mix of senior bowl pictures or airbrushed college picks. Please end the strike so we can get training camp & preseason pictures.
