I don't even collect the set, I just hated that there weren't any Pirates in the set and decided to buy all the cards of the worst player in the set and destroy them in protest. I also hated 121 cards in the set, felt they should have stopped at a nice number like 120. I realized after I bought six of them that it was an impossible goal and everyone associated with producing the set was probably long gone anyway, so I gave up. Now I just keep them as a reminder not to try to get even with dead people.
