This project has been ongoing for well over five years (I checked) and I've been sitting at four cards remaining for a while now.
The only really searching I do is at the monthly trade nights or when something shiny is one a table at the monthly show. I don't really do any hardcore searching on ebay right now.
You could very easily say that this project is in sleep mode, but recently it was given one of the biggest kicks I've ever felt.
Once again, thanks goes to fellow Linden collector Kevin for the very generous (and absolutely hilarious) additions. It was without a doubt the most jaw dropping cards I've seen.
You'll think so too.
Yes!!!! Josh Leivo. Told ya.
This card, numbered to 86, represents his draft position. I'll be honest, I've never heard of young Josh and I'm pulling for him as I see he's wearing the blue and white.
But let's face facts, his name could be Putta Playernamehere for all I care. It's all about there serial number for me.
Now.......can you guess what's next?

Yes!!!!!!! Josh Leivo.
That's right, you're not seeing double. This is Josh's jersey number parallel. 32 copies....and I need the number 32.
To have four cards on my wantlist - and not having seen any copies cross my way, only to have two in one shot - and of one player from one product release........is quite honestly the most incredible thing I've ever seen.
Let me think about that for a second.
Yup. I can honestly say that this unlikely event has truly left me gobsmacked. I can't stop smiling over the sheer coincidence of it all.
And if you think I'm going to upgrade either one of these two - you are CRAYYY-ZZZEEEEE!!!!!
I'm off to buy a lottery ticket or maybe the 50/50 draw at the Flames game. Wow!
Current Collection - 98 out of 100 (98%)
Man... the Cardboard Gods were looking out for you. Best of luck on the two final cards for this project.
