Hi mate! Ill be honest I think US and UK sport is more interesting than what we have over here. The culture and fanfare is just on another level. I think there's too much competition between sports here considering our population and it has an effect on leagues and atmosphere. Also college, the draft process and divisional rivalries just adds to everything.
Baseball cards are still around but mostly in the U.S. NBA cards actually has a cult following here and Ive stocked up on a bit over the last couple years
