Examining The Topps Player Collection Program


The Topps Player Collection Program spans eleven different 2008 Topps Football products, ten of which have already been released. The final product, Topps Mayo, is due for release later this month. The program features 30 of the NFL’s top players, each with a designated number and special logo. The player card numbers will remain the same in each of the eleven 2008 Topps Football sets. Essentially each of these cards will be part of two different sets - the first being their respective base sets and the second being the Topps Player Collection Set.

For example, Peyton Manning's 2008 Topps Football base card is card #18 in the 2008 Topps Football Set. However, the card also features the Topps Player Collection logo along with a secondary card number of #/11. Collectors can complete the Peyton Manning Player Collection Set by collecting Peyton Manning base cards from each of the eleven 2008 Topps Football products.

Mr. Irrelevant: Irrelevant No More


When the Rams activated David Vobora from the practice squad last week to start against the Miami Dolphins, he became the first "Mr. Irrelevant" to start a NFL game since 1994.  The Mr. Irrelavant award was first given to wide receiver Kelvin Kirk in 1976 when he was selected last by the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Mr. Irrelevant concept was pioneered by former USC football star Paul Salata in the early 1970's.  Over the course of the last three decades this concept has been transformed from a college student's joke into a week long celebration in Orange County, California.  Each year the celebration reaches it climax when the newest winner of the Mr. Irrelavent Award ceremoniously receives the Lowsman Trophy, which features a football player fumbling a ball.

Vobora first made a name for himself at linebacker for the University of Idaho, where he ranked among the top linebackers in the nation last season with 148 tackles.  By the end of his college football career, Vobora had amassed 341 total tackles, three sacks and two interceptions.  Vobora finished his NFL debut with five tackles, which came in a losing effort against the Dolphins on Sunday.

Thus far, David Vobora has been featured on only one football card to date.  This sole rookie card is part of the 2008 Donruss Gridiron Gear set.
