The MLB.com 2009 Fantasy Baseball Preview is up, and someone over there is obviously a fan of Topps. Last year they used 1980 Topps cards as a framing device; this year, it's 1984:

Clearly, 1987 Topps was the way to go.

If I ever meet the person responsible for these card ideas at MLB.com, I want to shake their hand.
1980 Topps was great last year. 1984 Topps is classic as well.
(MSTI, 1987 Topps is outstanding as well of course!)
MSTI: Faux wood paneling is always classy!
My favorite Topps has always been 1976.
