June 2013 Affordable Group Break - 2013 Score NFL

I apologize for not taking the time to display the results like I normally do, but this weekend was my wife's birthday and the weekend just got away from me.  I also was in a hurry to get everything packed up to mail off Monday morning that I didn't have the time to scan the hits.  However if you take a few moments and watch the video the first pack contained the best hit of the 4...and it was for the 49ers.



If you don't want to watch a 30 min video (I understand) then I'll let you know the other "winners" of the break.

- the 49ers got a sick Frank Gore patch #16/25 and a silver Franchise parallel of Frank Gore #04/99
- the Cowboys got a Miles Austin red parallel #06/30
- the Texans scored a RC auto of DeAndre Hopkins!
- the Broncos picked up a silver parallel of John Elway #06/32 in one of the last packs
- the Rams got the other RC auto, of Alec Ogletree and a Tavon Austin Hot Rookies insert

The 4th hit of the box was a Cecil Shorts III Inscriptions auto (Jaguars) and there were a few other numbered parallels that went to teams unclaimed aka me.  Those will be going on eBay as soon as I have the chance to help recoup some of my costs.

All in all I had a great time and I really want to do another football break again.  Maybe come August or September...maybe go back and pick something a little older/cheaper.  I'll probably ask for some feedback on that idea in a few month...or you can let me know your thoughts on that now.

Thanks again for everyone who participated.  See you next break!

Now that the 2013 NFL Draft is complete let's do a football group break featuring 2013 Score (Hobby Jumbo that's LOADED)

** UPDATE ** 
Box has been ordered, 05/28/13.  I'll leave the team sign ups open for a few more days.  If the break doesn't fill up we'll still do it, but I get to do what I please with the unclaimed teams.

As much as I love baseball, the NFL is a mighty juggernaut that just can't be stopped.  Football is quickly becoming the sport that everyone talks about year round.  I know I was excited about this year's NFL Draft and now that it's over some new 2013 football products are starting to release.  I thought about doing a box or two of Topps Archives, but then I checked out 2013 Score and the hobby only jumbo boxes are absolutely loaded!  Check it out:

Each Score Jumbo Box contains Three Autographs/Memorabilia Cards, Fifty Rookies, Ten Hot Rookies, and Ten Parallels!
Celebrate the 25th Anniversary of Score Football with Rookie Cards inspired by the landmark 1989 design!
The first officially licensed 2013 Rookie Cards with updated draft information. Rookie Cards fall five per hobby jumbo!
At least two autographs per box!
Find Road to the Super Bowl subset featuring the Super Bowl Champions!
Look for the 1st official Rookie Cards & Rookie Cards Autographs!
PRODUCT BREAKDOWN:
25TH ANNIVERSARY: 110 Rookies, five per pack, based on the 1989 Score design, updated to reflect drafted team & round information, look for limited Black & Purple parallels.
HOT ROOKIE SIGNATURES: Combination of their new pro uniforms along with their 1st rookie card signatures will certainly makes these cards the
early highly prized chase cards of the season, look for rare Showcase, Artist's Proof & Showcase Artist's Proof versions.
ROOKIE SIGNATURES: The 1st autographs of the incoming 2013 Draft Class within weeks of the draft.
Printing Plates: Look for 1 of 1 Printing Plates of the Commons, Subsets, Rookies & Hot Rookies.
Hot Rookies: The top picks of the 2013 draft are featured in their new pro uniform, one per Hobby Jumbo. Look for Hobby limited Showcase, Artist's Proof & Showcase Artist's versions.
Inscriptions: Current stars (Peyton Manning/Adrian Peterson) & rising stars (Colin Kaepernick/Andrew Luck) are featured in this limited autograph insert.
10 Packs Per Box, 50 Cards Per Pack
  

 



I think Panini has done an excellent job "upgrading" the Score brand from previous years.  If we act now we can bust on jumbo box using a 2 team per slot format.

16 two team slots available.  Pick one team of your choice.  Once all the slots have been filled, then the unclaimed teams will be randomly assigned to all participants.  Each two team slot will only cost you $10.00 shipped!  Pretty good, huh?  To sweeten the deal I'll send each participant extra cards of the team you choose.  There might even be some extra loose packs tossed into the break.
