How is a "team set" defined?
I think for veterans on a team, its obvious -- the problem comes with
draft picks and free agents acquired before the season begins. I'll give you an example: many checklists and website include DT Kelvin Pritchett in their listing for '91 Dallas Cowboy teamsets. One might argue that since the Cowboys drafted Pritchett in the first round of the '91 draft, including him in the checklists of '91 Cowboy teamsets makes sense. But the fact is, Pritchett never played a down for Dallas -- he was a draft-day trade to Detroit (some have said Dallas drafted Pritchett in a pre-arranged deal with Detroit, in exchange for 2nd & 3rd round picks). So, some '91 RCs show Pritchett in his college jersey (Classic, Star Pics); but other RCs show him in his Detroit uniform (Action Packed Rookie Update, Wild Card). Here's the flipside, from the same draft: some '91 teamset checklists omit QB Bill Musgrave (Oregon); in fact, Musgrave went to the Cowboys' training camp and was one of the final cuts that year, before signing with the 49ers. Other CLs include Musgrave -- so which is correct? I think a better case can be made for including Musgrave in Cowboy teamsets for '91 than you can for Pritchett, although I think both should probably be excluded since both actually played for other teams in '91. So, is there a generally recognized definition within the hobby of who gets included in a teamset and who is excluded? Or is it up to the individual collector? |
