I would like to see every significant player from 1894-2010 have a representative card. I use LOTS of cards in lots of different leagues at many different caps, so I'd guess that I would use most of the recent adds, though many of the players I voted for didn't make the cut this time. Unfortunately, there seems to be a great rush to add current players. I'd rather see players with No Card Representation get added.
Andy-- sure if we had unlimited card adds then by all means, lets get a rep card for everyone.
BUT until we do, lets get cards that will get used across the spectrum of leagues and by lots of people.
Just having a card for someone that only gets used to say it got used is not a good or efficient way to spend limited capital.
Im happy to respond to logically made arguments such as so and sos card is useful because of X reason, but there is no point to arguing an "I like so and so", "i grew up watching" (we all did), "I didn't know the price".
