I collect LSU players in any uniform. I also collect Saints players in Saints uniforms only, unless it's a rookie from another team cuz I'd have no choice. If a Saints player moves to another team I'd still collect his cards of him in a Saints uniform, which makes it easier then because I can catch up

RE: OT: How does a player leaving a team affect your collecting?
Thanks for replying guys!
As I said, I was curious to see some thoughts from other collectors... I like hearing differing thoughts on things I find interesting LOL
My search for the Packers 2010 Super Bowl team official autograph cards will probably net me a few non-Packers autos. Brandon Chillar's only autos came from when he was a rookie with the Rams, and the only Graham Harrell autos were when he was a rookie with the Browns (I think). Charles Woodson, I could try to get one of his cards from when he was a Raider, if I can't find one of him in a Packers uniform, but I'll cross that bridge when I get to it.
y2hood/ duch2izback: You guys looking for base/parallel cards for the Saints/Brees? I've got a box of about 500 cards that I can enter into my org if you think you may be interested in any of them. Nothing high end, but if it helps you build up your PCs, I'd be up for helping you out!

As of right now I'd have to decline for a variety of reasons, but thank you

No problem, y2hood, just figured I'd offer, just in case you would be interested in any of it. Can't hurt to ask, right?

Your generosity is noted. To quote Beldar Conehead: When my people come to take over the Earth, you will be on the list of those to be saved.

RE: OT: How does a player leaving a team affect your collecting?
I would continue to collect them regardless of team. However in football I mainly collect rookie year cards of former UF players, so a player like Harvin changing teams doesn't really affect my collection.

RE: OT: How does a player leaving a team affect your collecting?
My player just happens to be in a position to change teams right now. I will continue to collect him in Rams uniforms, but it depends on what team he goes to as to if I will continue after the Rams...
