Ideas on Collecting Sports Cards

It is almost impossible to collect in todays collecting world to collect everything or even most cards.  There are just way too many products and the cost is way too enormous.  Therefore, we must be more selective.  Here are some ideas.

1. Collect cards of your favorite Sport.  Example: Baseball, Football, Basketball or Hockey
2. Collect cards of your favorite team.  Example: St. Louis Cardinals or Los Angeles Dodgers
3. Collect cards of only your favorite players. Example:  Derek Jeter or Alex Rodriguez
4. Collect cards from your favorite "Brand" of cards.  Example: Topps, Upper Deck or Donruss
5. Collect only cards that include a piece of memoribilia on them.  Example:  Jersey or Bat card or autograph cards.
6. Collect only cards that are numbered to 100 or less.
7. Collect only "Rookie" cards of players.
8. Collect only cards from certain years or year.
9. Collect cards to complete sets.  Example:  1985 Topps Set

These are only a few examples that you can do.  I hope this helps begginers.
