I miss not only the thrill of opening packs, but I miss the thrill of getting a good star card or one of your team in a pack nowadays when, instead, it seems if you don't get an auto card or a relic card or a short print card, it registers as a colossal disappointment.
I got a little of it back recently when I found out that a player who played at my school was in the 2011 Bowman Draft Picks set. I bought a retail box at Target and was thrilled to get his base card, more so than the relic or the chrome cards that I got in that box.
