1999-2000 Fleer Tradition Basketball

99-00 Fleer Tradition:  The start of the NBA season is two weeks away and I'm getting excited.  Today is one a few different packs I grabbed off eBay recently.  Pretty happy with these and they are really fun.  Hakeem was great even in these unis.  Okay the unis are kind of fun so no real complaints.  This is one of the four red parallels I pulled.

Hakeem really made this pack but there are plenty of others I have fun memories of.  Davis and those great Pacers teams and Keith Van Horn who was a part of one of those Nets teams who made it to the Finals.

Look at those crazy good stats!  Love the backs of these cards. you get a different photo and career stats, lots of color.  Well done Fleer.  Well done.  And this is a great photo.

The Rookie Sensations inserts are okay.  Cuttino Mobley averaged 16 PPG for his career.  I never would have guessed that.  Nice Rasheed pull and who didn't like those Grizzlies jerseys and Big Country himself, Bryant Reeves.

I'll always sing this guy's praises.  Yes, he couldn't spell defense, but he was a scoring machine and a marksman from the arc.   Dale Ellis would have been the same in today's game.  This was a Roundball Collection parallel.  Fun pack of cards and great memories.

1999 Fleer Tradition Football

1999 Fleer Tradition:  I recently purchased quite a few individual card packs from a seller on eBay.  It is a great way to see some sets I've never seen before.  First up is this Barry Sanders card with a good look at his eyes as he sizes up who to run by next.

Another couple of nice photos and stars.  Bruce Smith tracking the running back is a great shot.  I like the Tim Brown card as well even if it isn't action oriented.

The backs are nice and colorful.  There are also plenty of stats here to enjoy.  The photo is also different from the front offering.  I like it.

The overall design is nice.  The script used for the team name is annoying.  A team logo in place of the NFC and AFC logos would have been nice but overall plenty of room for the photos to shine.

The text on the front of the cards is either red for players on AFC teams or silver for players on NFC teams.  At first I thought the AFC cards were red parallels but there are no red parallels in this set.

 Can't complain about my one insert.  Holt was a 7X Pro-Bowler, 1X All-Pro and big part of the Rams lone Super Bowl win.  These are some nice cards and I'm extremely happy with my pull.  I wouldn't hesitate to get more of these.

 And I get a Jerry Rice!
