A number of people asked me to update the group scoreboard - seeing how there was such interest, I've decided to do one better: I'm going to show off the best card, worst card, plus any interesting cards (in my eyes at least) of all the group break slots, one at a time.

Best card(s):
1997 Collector's Choice - #398 - Alex Ochoa. One of the neat things about Collector's Choice is the wide variety of photos - most of them are serious, in-game shots but there are the occassional goofy shots such as this Ochoa card. I wouldn't want a full set of nutty pictures, but a few scattered about does add some personality to the set! Note: This isn't a borderless card - I just forgot to adjust the scan and already packaged up the cards before realizing what happened. That said, it would be a pretty sweet card if it were borderless!
Worst card(s):
This is a nice little parallel card (I also pulled the non-signature version of the Reyes card) but it earns "worst card" simply because I pulled two of 'em. Unlike base card duplicates, ALL insert duplicates get mailed out - so BABenny will end up with two of these to figure out what to do with!
Card(s) of interest:
I said I would either random off the Bazooka 4-in-1 stickers or give them to the team with the fewest number of inserts - in the end, I sort of did a hybrid approach - I randomed the stickers off amongst all the teams - EXCEPT any team that I was stuck with (in that way, I didn't end up with any extra inserts that could have gone out to group break participants)!
Final Tally (after all non-insert duplicates removed):
Base: 28
Inserts/Short Prints/Parallels: 7
Relics/Autos: 0
