Ok, hear me out: I know there’s a lot of speculation that goes into this weird hot take, but if you just went rookie/prospect hunting this year across all the major sports:
* Wemby (NBA)
* Elly de la Cruz RC and Paul Skenes 1st Bowman’s (MLB)
* CJ Stroud (NFL)
* Connor Bedard (NHL)
* Caitlin Clark (1st Bowman and WNBA rookie card)
* And not to mention the Bron/Bronny auto chase, Charlie Woods (golf) had his first card…
Has there been a year that has been this prolific across all major sports? Again, this takes into account that all of these players will ultimately live up to their hype - but also doesn’t factor in those who will emerge “out of nowhere” (is there a hidden Brady in the mix??)
