Here's to the Ladies!

I haven't watched any of the Olympics yet but I'm sure I'll be tuning in here and there.  A few weeks back I picked up a blaster of Topps Winter Olympics cards.  One of the draws of this set is the inclusion of women athletes on an even footing with their male counterparts.  Here's a sampling in no particular order.

    Jeez, USA Olympian women are hot! I'm actually hoping to land some of Meryl Davis' cards from this set since she's a Wolverine, and they made some fun hits like the pins and patches.

      I have a Meryl Davis base card. It's yours if you want it (email me your address) I did get a decent hit. I'll be posting about it sometime in the next couple of weeks.

    Thanks for sharing, it's a pretty nice-looking set and very understated considering how "star-spangled" some of the past US Olympic sets have been. I had some interest in these cards, but not a blaster's worth... I'm really only interested in the hockey and curling base cards, so I'll probably wait until after the Olympics are over and then see if they get discounted.
