Gotta Love a Gimmick - Rap and Baseball Cards Don't Mix

All thanks to Baseball Cards Come to Life for this Gimmick, which is just too good to not mention.

Back in 2000, someone at Skybox apparently though it would be a good idea to put "rap lyrics" about each player on their cards. I put rap lyrics in quotes because these things are terrible. For instance, Neifi's above reads:

"Ain't no doubt about it Neifi, you're a future All-Star. Brother, please, you're game's so tight, you'll be rockin' with the Rockies for years (or until 2001, when he was traded to the Royals)."

That is some terrible stuff (Kazaam-esque even), and that's all I can really give you. But if you think you can stomach more, check out parts one and two over at Baseball Cards Come to Life. My personal favorite is Greg Vaughn.
