RE: Very Cool Leaf Pete Rose Retail Blasters ... With Guaranteed Auto!

Yeah, these individual player auto contracts are a great idea ... imagine the possibilities across all sports ... Bo Jackson, Rickey Henderson, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, etc. ... I don't think you'll ever get the "super huge" names like Montana, Jordan, etc. — especially at that price point — but hey, you never know.
This is definitely an innovation.
