Dang I love the backs of these cards. And apparently hobby boxes of Timelines are now thirty bucks a throw. Niiiiice.
Cardinals
Marlins
Tigers
Twins
The only problem with this subset is that I'm pretty sure there isn't a Pirate card in there as Jason Bay got traded to the Red Sox. It would really suck if there was no PNC Park version of these backs.
Only $30 ea? Damn... might have to pick up a couple now! I really liked this set, but I've only purchased one or two packs of it... Just in time for my weekly Friday trip to the card shop, too!
If you want signed cards like these you should enter into the Sports Legends Challenge. You will have the opporunity to meet Ozzie Smith, Reggie Jackson, Brooks Robinson, and 22 other sports legends. Check out www.sportslegendschallenge.com for more information.
in 04, the pirates cards had only an external shot of 3 rivers stadium. i haven't been to the new busch stadium, but it looks like the view of the arch is much better than it was at the old busch. and finally, the metrodome sucks.

The backs of UD Timeline are inspired. Really nice.
The Marlins' stadium is conspicuous by the lack of ambiance, atmosphere or character.
Perfect post, I wondered if anyone else thought the backs of these cards were pure greatness.
David - your observations about the Marlins card are spot on (..."lack of ambiance, atmosphere or character"), but you forgot attendance.
You're right about the lack of crowds. But whatever you say about them, they have done well in winning two World Series titles.
