Random Wax: 2024 Prestige Football

2024 Prestige:  Ricky Williams was just being Ricky.  In the process he ran for 1,000+ yards 5X while leading the league in rushing with 1,853 yards with the Dolphins in 2002.  The Saints made one of the most infamous trades to draft him. 

Traded by Redskins as 1999 1st round pick (5th overall) to Saints for 1999 1st round pick (12th overall subsequently traded, Cade McNown), 1999 3rd round pick (71st overall subsequently traded, D'Wayne Bates), 1999 4th round pick (107th overall, Nate Stimson), 1999 5th round pick (144th overall subsequently traded, Khari Samuel), 1999 6th round pick (179th overall subsequently traded, Desmond Clark), 1999 7th round pick (218th overall subsequently traded, Billy Miller), 2000 1st round pick (2nd overall, LaVar Arrington) and 2000 3rd round pick (64th overall, Lloyd Harrison)

Pretty good pull in this pack and I like the design.

Panini had lost their rights to college properties so air brushing was back in vogue.  Here we have a Sunburst Xtra Points Parallel. 

All three of these are good.  I especially like Any Given Sunday.  But with no rights to college teams the Alma Mater insert doesn't hit the same.

I enjoy the retired greats in the set.

We end it with a really nice For the Record Jerry Rice.  Total receiving yards is just one of at least seven career records he holds.
