My girlfriend pulled the same card from a repackaged box from Target. It was a $15 box that included a graded card (of no one of importance) and a game used card of a star (NOMAHH!) There was an unopened pack included, she pulled a Phil Hughes from a package of 07 Ultra Fleer which in my opinion was the only bright spot of the box. Oh and a set of Kmart Stars or something from 1989 or 1990? She commented at how hideous the Astro’s uniforms were.

Much like yourself, I was of the opinion that Normar was just behind A-Rod is overall greatness. The day he was traded to the Cubs was one of the happiest days of my Cub life. Then he got hurt…and hurt again. Ugh! If he had remained healthy, he would have been up there with the best in the bigs.
