White, Jason (2)

Upper Deck College Legends 2011 Decade’s Best 2000s, #DBJW

CARD: Upper Deck College Legends 2011
ACQUIRED: TTM 2022, C/o Work
SENT: 5/18 RECEIVED: 7/16 (58 days)

CAREER SNAPSHOT:

NOTES:

I had forgotten that I had pulled Jason’s certified base card autograph from this set, so when I sent this one I also sent the other card by mistake. He signed both of them, so I gave the additional autograph to my friend Lance. I like these Decades Best cards. The canvas is super clean and welcoming of an autograph. It pops very nicely.

Munchak, Mike ‘Munchie’ (2)

Pro Set 1990, #518
Action Packed All Madden Team 1990, #35

CARDS: Pro Set 1990, Action Packed All-Madden Team 1990
ACQUIRED: TTM 2020, C/o The Denver Broncos
SENT: 3/19/20 RECEIVED: 12/23/22 (1001 days)
FAILURE: TTM 2015, C/o The Pittsburgh Steelers

CAREER SNAPSHOT:

  • See also Mike Munchak ‘Munchie’
  • Served as the Titans head coach from 2011-13.
  • Posted a 22-26 record.
  • Worked as OL coach for the Steelers from 2014-18.
  • Finalist for the Broncos HC job in 2019 that ended up becoming the team’s OL coach.
  • Was not retained after Nathaniel Hackett was hired as head coach of the Broncos for the 2022 season.

NOTES:

Well I never expected to get this one back. After failing on Munchie back in 2015, I saw a few successes in early 2020 and packed 3 cards up and sent them out to him C/o the Broncos. There they languished in a mailbag I guess. I thought for sure I’d never see them again, but like a Christmas miracle, in tricked in a few successes from Munchie from his time with Denver, well after a year after he’d been let go. I held out a bit of hope and lo and behold these cards came back to me- but oh no, he didn’t sign my set need… Ah well, 2 of 3 ain’t bad.

So neither of these ended up being a set need. Curses! But they are still great cards. The Action Packed 1990 All Madden Team or AMAD for short came out at an odd time. I think it was for the 1990 AMAD team, but it wasn’t really seen in stores where I could get them until 1991. Still it bears an interesting transitionary phase hinting at Action Packed 1991 and ’92s looser left leaning canvas design. Also the image of Mike from this card was reused for Score 1990 as well- or the other way around depending on how you look at it.

I still think Mike has some gas in the tank to coach, and would make a great assistant coach/ OL coach for some team. I’d personally love to see him reunited with the city of H-Town.

Green, Gerri

Sage 2019, #A67 Black

Card: Sage 2019
Acquired: 2019, Box Breaker

CAREER SNAPSHOT:

  • Gerri Green played LB for Miss State from 2015-18.
  • Recorded 160 total tackles, 20 tackles for loss, 8.5 sacks, 3 picks for 84 yards and a TD, 6 pass deflections and 2 fumble recoveries.
  • Selected in the 6th round of the 2019 NFL Draft by the Indianapolis Colts.
  • Waived at the end of camp, briefly spent time with the Patriots before rejoining the Colts.
  • Signed by the Redskins in 2020, and then was on and off the Roster of the Raiders through 2022, where he currently is a practice squad member of the Titans.

NOTES:

I knew I was pretty much done with Sage at this time. 2019 was when the bottom started really dropping out of the market for me. The design of the Sage 2019 set (especially inserts and base) is atrocious and the members of their autograph hits were so-so.
