Expected sales for 2007 are expected to come in at $309 million, and profits about $10 million. That is one ugly long-term picture, and shows just how far Topps has to go to get back to some semblance of strength. In sports terms, Topps is facing off against Randy Johnson, and already has two strikes against it. I'm betting this one strikes out.''<br><br>Thanks,<br />David<br /><br />BUY / SELL / TRADE -&gt; 1878 TO 1911 NON-SPORTS
