So here I am doing the PSA shuffle...

I really don't care if they cut up Scott Rolen's jersey, but when they desecrate Jackie Robinson or Lou Gerhig's G/U stuff, I am outraged. Anyone want a piece of the Magna Catra? It has a piece of a word on it.

CON40 · May 20, 2004 6:13AM

That's a very nice full uni!

Wouldn't I look nice showing up at the next family meeting at the local Sons of italy club wearing that!

Wonder how deep the pockets are in those pants? They're gonna have to go down to the ankle 'cuz all this auction winner's pants have really deep pockets to hold all his coin! LOL

CON40 · May 20, 2004 6:16AM

Scott;

This is the jersey that Donruss will buy and cut up into little band-aid pieces:

Ryan Game-Used Jersey? Hmmmm

It's a Broadway Rick special... and it's the wrong size! Perfect for those desecratin' card companies!

Bighurt4 · May 20, 2004 6:16AM

I am going to bid on a Ryan jersey with sigs of the 300 game winners on it. I am sure I'll be smoked by a factor of 10, but I've gotta play with the big boys sometime.

well i thought another ryan collector would chime in.i'm just trying to stay in the top ten but the competion is fierce.i try to do some bottom feeding because i always have mrs. bundy looking over my shoulder.scott i will try and take a look at your second set and get back to you on them.i also thought i was going to get my a$$ kicked back down the registry ladder but i think this the most fun i have had collecting cards since i first started all those years ago.i'm also going through some tough times.both of my sons are having to go through speech therapy and where having to hire a lawyer to fetch on our school district to get them the help they deserve.but where going to make it like always i'll just have to buy some lower priced cards till things pick up.i would like to say thanks to conforti for the help with my ryan collection.you are truely the god father.

Hey Keith,

Does the MLB tag look like it was put on after the fact to you?

I also don't think that Nolan got into the Bartolo "the burrito" Colon sizes.

Things that make you go uhm!

OK, Just looking in to check up on you guys. Everyone on the board thinks you're being too quiet.

Dave (wannabe Ryaniac)

CON40 · May 20, 2004 10:27AM

Scott;

Nolan must have been a little big in the a$$ or something... he wore size 46... although with today's baggy uniforms, that's probably a small... I swear Manny Ramirez must wear size 72!

Dave, what will it take to get you join this bunch? We've even taken a liking to thinking of ourselves as a little Cosa Nolan family... we could use a good hit man who knows all about the fishes!

sjeanblanc · May 20, 2004 10:53AM

Ya cmon Dave,

Insanity is contagious, the more the merrier. A few weeks ago I thought we might have converted Jackstraw to Nolanism. Join the collective and become 21 of 34. Remember resistance is futile.

Sloanjr,
Which set is yours?

Dave,
Join the Family, before Don Con becomes dissatisfied.

Scott,
The only Star Trek references I'm interested in anymore have something to do with the DS9 ads on SikeTV, lol.

Brent

Bighurt4 · May 20, 2004 12:58PM

BTW, does the person with the ebay id thc1993 have a Ryan set?

Brent

CON40 · May 20, 2004 1:14PM

Brent;

thc1993 is Dan Vandefifer... he used to have the Texas Heat Collection in the Master Set... he's only been selling for the past few months, but lately I see him as a bidder again... that's a good thing. Dan is very nice and passionate about his Ryan stuff and only sold out of necessity. Hopefully, this is a good sign that he's not selling anymore and is buying/collecting Ryans again.

Bighurt4 · May 20, 2004 1:17PM

Keith,

Good deal, that was the seller I asked about a couple of months ago, with an extremely low rating(100% but not much feedback). It will be good to get another Ryan fanatic back.

Brent

mudflap02 · May 20, 2004 1:23PM

I took a ton of stuff of Dan's hands when I got my tax refund (Naxcom strikes again). He was a great guy to deal with.

CON40 · May 20, 2004 1:27PM

Does the MLB tag look like it was put on after the fact to you?

Scott, I'm replying a little late on this but you pose a very plausible possibility. Broadway Rick's nickname is Broadway Slick... he ain't no good to this hobby. I say this on good authority as I have purchased raw 41 Play Balls from him (years ago when I was even stupider than I am now) among them a Bill Dickey... all sent to PSA for eternal plastic damnation and all rejected for -- you guessed it -- evidence of trimming. Also, the local watering hole here (Teaparty Sports) has had dealings with him that turned out even worse.

I say the chance that this jersey is real is about equal to the chance that the Babe will return to the Red Sox, lead them to the Series to face the Cubs, then hit one more called shot at Wrigley off of Mark Prior to win Game 7 for Boston.

mudflap02 · May 20, 2004 1:47PM

So you're telling me there's a chance.

mudflap02 · May 20, 2004 1:49PM

Does anybody else get the feeling that people who don't have a Ryan set registered are afraid to post here because they think they'll get beaten up? That gives me a new idea for a sig.....

CON40 · May 20, 2004 1:51PM

Well, errrr, yes, and monkeys will fly out of my a$$!

That's it... show's over... goin' to bed!

mudflap02 · May 20, 2004 1:51PM

Oh yeah

CON40 · May 20, 2004 1:52PM

Damn... every time I try to get out... they pull me back in!

Bighurt4 · May 20, 2004 1:53PM

mudflap,

LOL, the cool table...with brass knuckles? Sorry Don Con if I reveal too much.

Brent, a Ryan Soldier

CON40 · May 20, 2004 1:56PM

Just consider this group our own private little social club... some red wine, a little game of pinnochle, and a nice pasta dinner... no one's the wiser!

Bighurt4 · May 20, 2004 1:58PM

Well then, pass the Rigatoni and '86T Ryan in 10.

Brent

mudflap02 · May 20, 2004 2:06PM

We're so gay. Soon this nonsense will have gone on for 5 pages. Keith you already live in Massachusetts - if you like Nolan Ryan so much why don't you just marry him?

Bighurt4 · May 20, 2004 2:11PM

Well Mudflap,

You're this baby's daddy, congrats! LOL

Brent

sloanjr · May 20, 2004 10:38PM

big hurt, my set is the jason sloan nolan ryan master set and is the same in the other ryan sets to.

Bighurt4 · May 21, 2004 12:05AM

Nice to meet you Jason.

Brent

CON40 · May 21, 2004 12:23AM

Keith you already live in Massachusetts - if you like Nolan Ryan so much why don't you just marry him?

Jeff, a comment like that could get ya whacked.

Don't get me going on the shame I have for living in this liberal hell hole. Sometimes I think I am the only registered Republican in this dinky state!

Bighurt4 · May 21, 2004 12:29AM

Ah, the joys of living in The Peoples Republic of Massachusetts. My condolences, Don Con.

Brent

sjeanblanc · May 21, 2004 12:32AM

Brent,

I haven't seen those ads on SpikeTV yet, but I dream about 7 of 9, she could borg me anytime. The best thing is she only lives about 20 minutes from my house. Her ex-husband is running for Govenor, so I think shes available.

Scott,

Do you remeber the scene where Dax sees her ex-something and they re-explore old feelings. I'm trying to keep this kid friendly, but they can get married in Keith's home state now. I love that episode.

Brent
