Something petty but it bothers me
I watch eBay for Charles Woodson autos in hopes of landing one eventually.
There are stickers that he signed while with the Packers because he put "21" after the signature.
Some of these stickers are ending up on his Raiders cards in which he wears number 24.
It's petty but it irks me.
Does this bother anyone else?
Do you have a minor detail like this that causes you major heartburn?

RE: Something petty but it bothers me
That would bother me too.
One thing that really bugs me is when they put a large patch on a card, where you can clearly see it's a logo, and it's oriented upside down! Do they close their eyes when putting the patch on? Does it take too long to turn it the right way? It's good to see other people bothered by small things too...

This bothers me too!! If you watch a video on how they manufacture the cards you will understand why it happens. They glue the patch to the card stock, then the top card is laid over and glued to the cardstock.
It also bothers me when a player changes teams and they use materials from the old team (colors, logos, etc.).

Card companies won't care what we think until we stop buying/selling their products.
I appreciate Chicago players that begin competing within the city's sports organizations and stay with these teams throughout their careers.

that bugs me the most is the different team/different patch thing. I was gonna buy a super nice playbook patch auto of Reggie Bush /5 and it was 49ers but had Detroit patches in it. I hesitated so long bidding and I lost.. kinda glad I did now though.

That is garbage. If the guy won't sign, don't sell autos. If you are going to sell autos and charge crazy prices, it better darn well be up to date and authentic! That's my two cents lol. I'd never buy a card with another team's patches or number on it.
