Fred, I may start another poll but it will be more about the way the set is collected as opposed to a card count. I will however encourage voters to reply with more details including how far along they are in their journey. If for example you are trying to collect just the Browns Champs, how many of the 13 card subset are you away from completion.
I have 348 with no real direction, collected Pittsburgh players once, then team type cards, once bought cool looking poses. Now just look for tough players that slip through the cracks. Wanted to go for a player set, at least as far as I could. Who knows now, my collecting goal is as unorganized as the picture looks... just noticed this pic has my first OJ showing, right above the right stack of Corcorans. My priceless Joe Mulvey!
