2001 SP Authentic

   Hello all. Back again with an offering from 2001 in the form of SP Authentic. I never saw these cards so I was looking forward to ripping these when I found this lone pack in the Vend-O-Pack machine. 

2001 SP Authentic

#1 Troy Glaus (Angels)

#27 Jermaine Dye (Royals)

A slow start.

#18 Freddie Garcia (Mariners)

#69 Preston Wilson (Marlins)

So-so.

#44 Greg Maddux (Braves)

A great player, too bad it's the Braves.

A couple of backs.

BY THE NUMBERS:
Total Cards: 5

Teams Represented: 5
Rookie Cards: 0
Sub Sets: 0
Parallels: 0
Inserts: 0
Hits: 0
Keepers for Me: 0 (All are up for grabs)

MY RATINGS:
Front Design: 6 out of 10 Good pictures, OK design,  no real background, no team logo.
Back Design: 7 out of 10 Nice design, team logo, factoid about player's 2000 season, only up to 5 years stats and career totals.
Player Selection: 5 out of 10 Average with Maddux being the only stud of the bunch.

FINAL OVERALL RATING: Foul Out behind the catcher. Maddux is the only reason the bat even hits the ball.

A note on yesterdays pack of 98 Sports Illustrated, if you like them go check out Colby's group break over at Cardboard Collections. He's busting a box of them along with a box of 98 SkyBox Dugout Axcess and a box of 2007 Fleer. His breaks are always fun and very reasonably priced so get on over there.

Thanks for Reading!
