Okay, so I got into this whole 2009 Bowman Draft thing. I didn’t really know what to expect, but I heard some buzz about it and figured, why not?
First, I started looking around to see what this whole 2009 Bowman Draft was even about. I found out that there were apparently 220 cards released in May. Can you believe it? 220 cards! And then, later in December, another 55 cards were dropped. It felt like a lot to take in.
- Checked out the info on the 220 cards from May 4.
- Looked into the 55 additional cards from December 23.
I tried to make sense of it all. These cards had some sort of rating system, which seemed pretty random to me. Some people rated the 220 cards set a 6.7 out of 10, and the 55 cards set got a 5.9. Honestly, I didn’t see much of a difference, but what do I know?
Then I saw something about “Blue” versions of the 55 cards, but the rating was “TBA” whatever that means. It sounded kind of fancy, but I couldn’t figure out what made them so special.
The next thing I did was try to find a list of all the cards and their prices. They had these terms like “ungraded” and “graded,” which was all new to me. It was kind of cool to see how the prices changed based on the condition of the cards. I even clicked on a few to learn more about them, but honestly it became overwhelming pretty quickly.
I also tried to track down some specific players. I saw names like Arian Foster, Mark Sanchez, Michael Crabtree, Clay Matthews, and LeSean McCoy. I recognized a few of them, but others were totally new to me. It was interesting to see their cards listed there, but I didn’t really know what to do with that information.
My Conclusion
So, after digging into this 2009 Bowman Draft stuff, I realized it’s a pretty big deal for some people. There’s a whole world out there of collecting and trading these cards that I never knew existed. I got lost in the details, but I also found it somewhat fascinating. It was an interesting way to spend my time and I ended up learning more than I thought I would. I can definitely see why people get into it. But at the end of the day, it was a lot of information, and I’m not sure I’ll become a collector myself anytime soon.
Anyway, that’s my story of diving into the 2009 Bowman Draft. It was a wild ride, and I’m glad I did it, even if I’m still a little confused.
