Andre Reed

Fleer's cards were generally pretty weak but these illustrated pieces really psyched me up as a kid. The art was really good. Reed played one year as a Redskin...that looked weird.

Jeff George

This is what Jeff George does when he's not playing QB. He leans up against the wall, watches the sunset and waits for women. The funniest thing about this card is that the back quotes Jeff saying that his best asset is his calm, cool demeanor. Has Jeff George ever watched Jeff George play? This guy was a hot head always capable of a mental breakdown during any game.

He played for 7 teams. C'mon.

Nicknamed Biscuit, Cornelius was a force for the Buffalo Bills. Notice the blood on his pants. Real Man.

Browning Nagle

Jets fans, you thought you'd forgotten didn't you? Browning Nagle was fairly hyped when he entered the league in 1991. Mostly because the Jets had Ken O'Brien at quarterback and the media was hoping ole Browning would save the day the following year. Didn't happen.

Browning had an eerie way of popping up in my waxpacks. It seemed as though every few packs I opened contained a Nagle card. I almost began liking the guy just because we saw each other so often. Whoever snapped that photo on the Edge card did a great job. That's how I'd want my card to look.

Craig "Ironhead" Heyward

Craig "Ironhead" Heyward (September 26, 1966-May 27, 2006) RIP.
I loved the Ironhead! This guy would buck and bull his way through defenses all day long. He was a beast. Plus he always seem to be having fun and even laughing during the game. Unfortunately he passed away from cancer. He's probably still bucking defenders in a big game up in the clouds.

Don Majkowski

I'll admit I never really liked this guy. He was quick and squirrelly, always running around and tossing the ball to someone at the last second. He probably thought he was carving a little legacy out for himself up in Green Bay, that's until Brett Favre showed up and wiped all that away.

In case you've been looking for a Majkowski jersey since 1989 and still haven't been able to find one...well bad news. As reported on Don's Website (www.themagiknetwork.net - c'mon.) He can't even get anymore of his own jersey.

MAJIK JERSEYS SOLD OUT
Attention shoppers: we are now completely out of Majik jerseys and will unlikely be able to get any more. Thank you for your understanding!
