If you read the article earlier this week, you know how much I hate this set. After seeing the live box breaks and all the cards that are popping up on eBay so far, my rage fueled hate fire for this shit is getting stronger by the moment. It just never ceases to amaze me what collectors will buy, and yet, here we are year after year.

Now that I see they autographs, and all the parallels, I dont think the base non-autos are that bad. The autographs have actually served to make the base cards look better, which speaks volumes. Of course, for whatever reason I dont think they are as bad as last year, but that’s like saying my 1978 Gremlin coupe is not as bad as my 1977 Gremlin coupe. They are all bad.

The die cut insert sets range from interesting to "GOOD GOD WHAT WERE THEY THINKING?!?," and its actually funny how there wasnt one single voice in the room that said maybe some of them werent a good idea. Then again, Panini is laughably horrible with this anyways.

Secondly, the autographs in this product look awfully watered down, as any of the good players are on a very short SP list. One of the Manziel lower tier cards is numbered to just 35, so unless I am missing something, its going to be tough to pull something nice.

As I have said time and time again, its going to be close to impossible to continue buying cards come 2016 unless Panini figures out how to produce good looking cards that dont make me want to wretch. This set is going to end up being their flagship Chrome style set, and we should all be sick to our stomach that is going to happen. Yes, the set where they replaced the S in Prism with a Z, to be more hip is going to replace Chrome. Gross.

Prizm has such a poor track record that it deserves its own category of fail. Bravo guys. Bra-vo.
