Hey! I am back for my first post of October and it's on a football Sunday. So you know what that means....time to drink some coffee, watch some football and share some football cards.
And don't worry about the title of this post. Grounded doesn't mean my wife took my laptop away and I can't type or that my parents told me to stay in my room or that I went out and about and caused some ruckus or didn't eat my broccoli. Which by the way is my favorite vegetable when it's cooked.
You will see in just a second why the title is the way it is.

In my last post I mentioned how both Panini and Topps have flooded the market with Rodney Hamptons. For the first time in awhile, like late 90's, thanks to Topps Composite I am able to chase some Rodney Hampton inserts.
And it wouldn't be today's times if these inserts didn't have a decent amount of parallels.
The insert line is called Grounded. .Makes sense for it to be all running backs which Rodney was.
I spent a good amount of time chasing these first instead of the overpriced autographs,
This is the base.
Refractor
Lazer
Pink Refractor
X-Factor
Green /99
Blue Wave /75
Gold /50
Orange /25
Red /5
And I believe I have all of them except the Superfractor. Which I will probably never be able to land if it ever gets pulled.
I am still happy where I am at with this chase however.
*takes a sip before finishing up today's post*
The non logos on these don't bother me as much as I expected, I think the busy design behind it helps. Hopefully the super will get pulled and by some miracle ends up with me.
As for rest of the product Composite, I do have some of the autographs I will wait to share in my next post. I must apologize for the Rodney influx posts but it's really all I have been getting in the mail and have nothing else to share otherwise.
Hope everyone has a great Sunday.
9 Cups left.
