  4. I simply went to the Hobby shop I always go to. Topps apparently couldn't get it out in time to arrive yesterday so they pushed the date back two days just to make sure. The Jumbo boxes were overpriced, so I settled for a regular box and put the difference toward the 2008 Heritage fund.

  5. The backs are nice, but the fronts of the ones with long team names look strange. The circles have to be too small to balance the white space. I know it's nitpicky, but it bugs me. I think I'll stick to the Heritages this year.
