2011 World of Sports
Picked up a few packs of Upper Deck's 2011 World of Sports.
On the Upper Deck site they boast the return of the set for it's second year as exciting, with the addition of Football (college) to the previous sports baseball (college), basketball (college), Hockey (Team Canada), Soccer (MLS, WPS and college), golf, surfing, college coaches, lacrosse a video game champion, snowboarder..a truly strange collection of athletes. Upper Deck stated that last years set was the surprise hit of collecting, while most of the blogs I have seen disliked the product...
I find it interesting that the wrapper features Landon Donovan (MLS-LA Galaxy), golf and basketball...no football or baseball (not complaining)...I can see collectors of one sport having difficulty with a set like this, as it is difficult to obtain the sport of interest. And do I really need a card of a video game champion (like pulling the hot dog eating champ in the Allen & Ginter set!) I also do not understand the use of college photos of pro, like Josh Wolff in his South Carolina jersey?
In my view the card designs are good, nice clear photos, with the World of Sports banner at the bottom. The checklist for the soccer cards:

2012 - Castrol Upper Deck
The differences in the cards are the Castrol Index logo in the upper corner and the card number placed in a green Castrol circle. On the regular Upper Deck issue the number is in the same location without the green circle.
The backs of the cards feature the same player bio and stats. the tops of the card removes the player photo and replaces it with the Castrol Player Index, which is explained on a separate card as performance tracking for a players' every move on the field and assesses whether it has a positive or negative impact on the team's ability to score or concede a goal. Keane's index is 7.77. The players position in the set in in decreasing order of their index, where as Koevermans has the highest index...

2004 - Seth Stammler
Seth Stammler appeared at a soccer tournament in Montclair, NJ to sign autographs and promote the MetroStars. At the time Stammler was just starting his career. the tournament officials set up his tent next to where our team was set-up for down-time between games. Some of the boys on the team had Stammler sign every their shoes, shinguards, jersey, anything they could take off in public...Mike settled for the 4x6 postcard and his autograph book...
Stammler was selected by the Metrostars in the 2004 MLS Superdraft. Only playing for 1-minute as a rookie, injuries side-lined him for most of the season, by 2006 he became the starting left-side midfielder, shifting to a more defensive position with the Red Bulls. Stammler retired from professional soccer in 2010, after appearing in 142 games, scoring 6 goals...
Stammler also was a member of the 2003-04 US U23 team...
2004 - MetroStars stickers
Michael Bradley
Metro mascot - - Des McAleenan (goalkeeper coach)
Chris Leitch - - Mike Magee
Joselito Vaca - - Amado Guevara
Tim Regan - - Bob Bradley
This set of sticker was given out in a manner similar to the 2001 MetroStars player cards, by attending a game and visiting the Might Metros fan club table. The set of stickers came with a poster of the pitch. Each sticker could then be placed on the poster in their position. As will usually happen with stickers, most of them were placed on the poster or other surfaces. These are the only ones that could be located within our collection...
The design of the stickers matched the design of the player cards that were used for autograph sessions...the stickers are the same size as a trading card 2.5 x 3.5 inches...
