Here's another smug response from ToppsMike... That's dumb. What do you mean "because hes Drew Smyly" what's that supposed to mean? And J.D. Won't get base cards because he wasn't traded?

So it was a TOPPSMIKE decision? Makes sense now. Do we really need 15 Yankees sigs this season? It's bad enough that the sig chase has two Yankees (Jeter and Tanaka) but now two of the three sig chase rewards are Yankees, too (Berra, Boggs). I know there a lot of Yankee fans out there and on this app, but there are teams without any sigs at all (INCLUDING THE RED SOX). This just enrages me, even if I wasn't going after this sig. The sad thing is that I welcome diversity when it comes to collecting and seen the fourth Yankee signature is killing it. In a way it devalues the Berra sig for me since it is not as special with another Yankee HoF sig. It is ridiculous that the reward for collecting 20 hard to get sigs are two Yankee HoF. Why not a Willie Mays? Why not any of the other players featured as Golden Moments? I mean, you have so many possible players to choose from and you not only select a Yankee, but a player that is known for having played for the RED SOX during his prime. It makes no logical sense. I'm a Yankee fan but I'm also a fan of the game and understand that the game is bigger than any team. This explains why TOPPSMIKE has no bloody clue that Boggs went into Cooperstown as a Red Sox player and still believes that having a ring is greater than being one of the greatest in the sport. Just annoys me because it makes me, as a Yankees fan, look bad.

The last TOPPSMIKE tweet really angers me as a Tigers fan. I still like Smyly even though we traded him and J.D is having a great season. How many Yankees base were there today? Capuano didn't really need to get cards, and even if he did, at least give Smyly some too. As the guy tweeted to Mike, we can tell a Yankees fan runs this app

mike claims that it wasn't his choice for Boggs as the legend sig nor was it his choice for him as NYY over TB or BOS. He "had the day off"

Wow, just saw the exchange! So is it my understanding that they "can't change the Boggs uniform"? Because if that's their company line right now, I would like to present Exhibit A:
ALBERT PUJOLS ALL-ROOKIE CUP - Started as an Angels player and was subsequently changed the same day to represent his first years with the Cardinals.

As much as the a*****e and calling him out part must have been satisfying, I really don't think he gives a shi*t about what anyone says. We are all just users and profiles to him.
I do like the fact that RockChalk is calling Mike an a*****e and right next to each tweet - Rock Chalk blog is "followed by Topps Bunt"

It's too bad that decent guys like Ian and Cormack get a bad rap because Mike is a giant prick. Can't even imagine working with a guy that acts like that towards paying customers.

Any employee at my company that sent out tweets like his would have been immediately fired.
