Upper Deck Super Bowl Contest

About a week before the Super Bowl Upper Deck had announced they were having a Super contest and boy did they not disappoint. With Sp Authentic coming out and the Super Bowl upon us and Valentines Day, they put the combination of the three and came up with the following contest.

You must show your LOVE for Sp Authentic and football in two sentences or less in order to win an Sp Authentic autograph patch rookie card of both Joe Flacco and Colin Kaepernick. Upon hearing this news, we knew we had to show our love for the product since it is a favorite year in and year out. And the fact that both of these QB's were in the Super Bowl and had hot hands who would not want to own these terrific red hot cards??!!

Well, We took some time, actually a few hours, and got all of my Sp Authentic cards out and put together a contest piece hoping we would win these really top notch auto patch rookies. After a few days of nervously counting down and waiting and wondering... BOOM! We won! We couldn't believe it! We are still in disbelief!

The contest was fun and definitely was worth it. Thanks again must go out to Upper Deck and Chris Carlin for putting on a great contest and giving collectors a chance to win great prizes like these.

Let us know your thoughts in comments!

Who will win Super Bowl XLVII Ravens-49ers

Sprinter's speed makes San Francisco's Colin Kaepernick truly dangerous. Baltimore's Joe Flacco is a classic drop-back passer.

Ravens Anquan Boldin has been playing great this postseason and his teammate Torrey Smith will play as a deep threat, that can mean trouble for the 49ers.

Raven's Lewis has 44 tackles in the past three playoff wins and he has been great in the Raven's defense. The Raven's have a pretty good front seven that can dominate the game.

San Francisco 49ers will need to run with Kaepernick's speed, he can dominate the game. San Francisco has the most talented defense in the NFL.

Random Card Of The Day: Colin Kaepernick Score Football 2011 Rookie Card

  

With his first playoff start last night against the Green Bay Packers no one knew what this kid could do. Expectations were being a young guy playing a hot team..well you know. Boy did he prove them and myself wrong. What a performance in a Divisional Playoff Game. He not only led the 49ers offense to 45 points, but he threw for 263 YDS, 2 TD, 1 INT and then ran for 16 CAR, 181 YDS, 2 TD. Shocking and record breaking numbers especially on the ground. Whoever meets up with the 49ers in the NFC Championship game now has their eye on this QB.
