Rodney's Cardboard:2007 Hero Decks Georgia Bulldogs Football Playing Card

Once again, oddities are my favorite pickups for Rodney Hampton. It's what defines me as a Super Collector of the particular player. It helps my collection stand out and makes my numbers go up.

Rodney only has so many cards in his career and most are being narrowed down right now and getting tougher to find the ones I need.

This one popped up for $3 and free shipping and that fits right in my budget so I added it.

Back of the card is a Bulldogs helmet. Pretty slick playing card.

I have also found a NY Giants edition of this I still need to get. Only problem, it's in a deck of cards but it's NY Giants so it won't be too bad to add them all.

Sunday's With Rodney:1991 Hoby SEC Stars

Sunday's With Rodney returns as I take a look at some of the newer pickups for my Rodney Hampton master collection. Some are really cool. Some are rare and some are ones I haven't ever heard of before.

That's where today's card comes into play.

1991 Hoby's Stars of the Southeastern Conference football card set contained 396 cards. Each institution in the SEC was represented by 36 prominent past players including my guy Rodney from Georgia.

The card is a little bland in terms of design and the picture usage is a bit rough, but it's fun to find the tough oddballs when you can. Especially for under $2 shipped.
