Banger bros,
Do you ever think the card companies troll us by inserting the "wrong" cards of players from the "right" teams?
Case in point - for cashing in on last year's Topp Chrome MVP promotion, I ordered a blaster of 2020-21 Optic Basketball hoping for Rated Rookie cards of Charlotte's LaMelo Ball or Minnesota's Anthony Edwards.
Oh, I got Hornets and Timberwolves Rated Rookies all right - of two dudes who I'm pretty sure are no longer in the NBA.
Hilarious, Panini.
Fast forward to today - Last Mega Rule in effect for 2023 Prizm Football.
(Yes, I actually found one.)
Got a green disco prizm and base rookie card of Indianapolis Colts ... WR Josh Downs.
Got a base card of Carolina Panthers QB ... Andy Dalton.
Got a green disco prizm of Houston Texans QB ... Davis Mills.
Got a base rookie card of Houston Texans ... DE Will Anderson (not bad actually).
The one saving grace of the box was a Puka Nacua base RC, my first Rams card of him that I pulled myself.
My mem card was Michael Mayer of the Raiders, who I still sort of PC.
Anyway, it was a fun rip, if you hit the right players it's actually decent value for once.
Puka was the only good RC that I hadn't pulled yet in any NFL product, so I think I'm done with football now until Chronicles comes out.
