I would of rather had the baseball for my players born on Nebraska collection. The Cheif was born just up the road a piece in Beemer.
I completely understand the necessity to cut it that way due to the design of the card. At some point, someone has to look at the ball and know that it's off center enough that it won't work, and then make the decision to not destroy the ball. UD destroying good stuff simply for the sake of protocol and print runs. Gotta love it.

Anyways John, are you in need of a Harder auto for your collection? Or was that more of a "you currently have a flat sig, and the ball would've been better"?
