I’m sure that Morgan White was kidding with you when he said that it was due to .09g of dirt.

I'm happy that Adam Thielen made it back to MN. I just hope we didn't give up too much for him
Looks to me like we gave up next to nothing for him, 4th and 5th round picks and we get a 5th and 7th.
Bunch of guys who probably won't make he team.
He missed time with a hamstring injury last year, but still put up good numbers.
Good move, glad to see him back!
The way the Vikings have been drafting, maybe they should trade ALL their picks for players.
Re: What’s this new “Offer” option on my Completing Submission
The Idea of PSA cracking out their own cards is a bit of paranoia...now i will tell you that cards can and are graded well below the real card grade nowadays (and nope don't say standards are stricter because a standard is always the same regardless of time like weights and measures CAPISH?)....under grading seems to happen MUCH MUCH more than over grading these days...It is scary as well when you consider the value difference between PSA 6's and 8's for the 50's, 60's, and 70's hall of famers...this could be their undoing in the future if it persists to a large level...yep vintage IS the anchor to modern cards...once the anchor is gone the PSA ship will sadly drift around with no guidance...

Grading standards have changed. Yesterday's 6 maybe todays 4! Look at the card not the grade.

NOPE standards are NOT suppose to change with time...for example is yesterdays 1 lb todays 1/2 lb?...obviously NO....Now is TODAYs PSA 4 tomorrows PSA 2...IT should NOT and NEVER BE...DO YOU SEE WHAT I"M SAYING????

People can both overvalue and undervalue the holders/stickers. But I do find the people who undervalue them to be a bit...er...harder to take?
Tough call. The “learn to grade” camp comes off as officious and unrealistic while the “holder” crowd comes off as lazy and naive.
