I got my Portis-Lewis 2-pack earlier this week. I still have to open it up though.
All in all, I think all of the 2-packs this year have been a lot more interesting than last year's. Especially the NFL sets. It's too bad they overproduced the Shaq/Yao Ming set though. It's kept the Lebron/Carmello 2-pack from getting distributed.
I really wasn't too stoked for the NHL sets, except for Brodeur & Messier. I mean, with the Shanahan/Blake set, just how many Avs and Red Wings players do we need in the NHL line?
I agree. They've really stepped up the 2paks.
As for the Avs/Wings players, bottom line is they sell. The teams are popular as hell and they've stated on the Sports Board that making players from teams like the Wings, Avs, Yankees, etc. allows them to make players like Vinatieri and Ogden.
