1. Football wasn't as exciting or popular in it's infancy (teens and 20s) as baseball was at that time. Thus, the players that would be featured on those cards would be less popular (if the cards even existed)

2. I think a lot of baseball fans that hate football are jealous that baseball is not as 'fun, sexy, or popular' as football is becoming. I believe they may be bitter that baseball's time as being America's most popular sport has basically come to an end, and that means their youth has come to an end, Just a guess.
