Gladding was bad, but Joe Pettini for 81 Topps may have been the worst choice of them all. As I posted elsewhere, I think you either pick the funniest cards (Gladding may have been appropriate) or you pick the best cards, and those don't always have to be the stars. Don't mix the two.
The article nailed the 71 Topps pick in my opinion, as I believe that is the coolest Topps baseball card ever made.
