Some notes - "Cards Per Team" is the number of "regular" player cards plus the manager and team checklist (if either are included).  Information for sets 2007 and prior was mostly derived from Engel.  For 2008 and later, I relied on either BBM's website or Sports Card Magazine #104.  The insert cards from the Light Packs mentioned by Engel from 2003-2007 are not listed in SCM #104 so there may be Light Pack inserts for post-2007 that are not listed here.
