2 $10 Boxes of Topps Update Series!

Noticeably, I've been having a surprisingly shallow card-buying year. High School has gotten in the way a bit, as well as a bit of work. But at least I'll be able to enjoy Update Series by buying multiple packs this year. Let's see the product in all its awesome glory:

Box 1:
286- Rich Thompson. He's from Australia.
307- Casey Coleman
317- Craig Counsell. What a career he's had. Hope he gains his second World Series ring.
253- Scott Linebrink? He was on the Braves?
165- Al Albequerque. What a redundant name.
153- Matt Guerrier. Didn't help the Dodgers any
266- Jason Isringhausen. One of the best closers of the early 00's. Glad he's back home.
285- David Purcey.
