This just in from Topps on Monday …

22 Johnny Knox
24 James Harrison
26 Clay Matthews
33 Josh Freeman
41 John Elway
47 Dan Marino
54 Chad Pennington
66 Cedric Peerman

177 Lee Evans
181 Derrick Williams
184 Bernard Berrian
190 Peyton Manning
191 Steve Slaton
194 Chad Ochocinco
In addition, the following three cards do not appear in the regular base card set. These subjects can only be found as mini parallel versions.
59 – Jonathan Stewart
99 – Brandon Pettigrew
191 – Steve Slaton
I’m a little confused. Card 191 Steve Slaton is an SP in the main set, but also only available as a mini? How is that possible?
file this under, no one really cares. Bad product hitting at a bad time. With topps out of football and UD out of money, where is the future for football?
Dont know where kevin is gettin hie info from, but it is not a bad product. Love these little cardsand its a new twist of on a old idea. More fun and less expensive than the flashy high dollar cards. Not everyone cares to or can afford the flashy high dollar sets to collect, so it makes it affordable and keeps kids coming into and intrested in cards. Remember,cards started as a way for kids to collect something about their sports heros not for adults to collect. Topps went back to their roots with this set and thats a good thing.
